# Changelog
## Upcoming
## v0.9.0
**Breaking Changes**
- Update dependencies.
Since `hashlink` is exposed (through `Yaml::Hash`) and has been updated from
0.8.4 to 0.9.1, the new version of `yaml-rust2` will not link properly if you
explicitly rely on `hashlink v0.8`.
Existing code with v0.8.4 should still compile fine in v0.9.1 (see
[hashlink's v0.9.0
changelog](https://github.com/kyren/hashlink/releases/tag/v0.9.0)).
**Bug fixes**
- ([#37](https://github.com/Ethiraric/yaml-rust2/pull/37))
Parse empty scalars as `""` instead of `"~"`.
**Features**
- Add `Yaml::is_hash`.
- Add better doccomments to the `Index` and `IntoIterator` implementations for
`Yaml` to better explain their quirks and design decisions.
## v0.8.1
**Bug fixes**
- ([#29](https://github.com/Ethiraric/yaml-rust2/issues/29)) Fix parsing
failing for deeply indented scalar blocks.
- ([#21-comment](https://github.com/Ethiraric/yaml-rust2/issues/21#issuecomment-2053513507))
Fix parsing failing with comments immediately following a YAML tag.
**Features**
- ([#19](https://github.com/Ethiraric/yaml-rust2/pull/19)) `Yaml` now
implements `IndexMut<usize>` and `IndexMut<&'a str>`. These functions may not
return a mutable reference to a `BAD_VALUE`. Instead, `index_mut()` will
panic if either:
* The index is out of range, as per `IndexMut`'s requirements
* The inner `Yaml` variant doesn't match `Yaml::Array` for `usize` or
`Yaml::Hash` for `&'a str`
- Use cargo features
This allows for more fine-grained control over MSRV and to completely remove
debug code from the library when it is consumed.
The `encoding` feature, governing the `YamlDecoder`, has been enabled by
default. Users of `@davvid`'s fork of `yaml-rust` or of `yaml-rust2` might
already use this. Users of the original `yaml-rust` crate may freely disable
this feature (`cargo <...> --no-default-features`) and lower MSRV to 1.65.0.
- Duplicate keys no longer allowed
Instead of silently choosing one of two values sharing the same key in a
mapping, we now issue an error. This behavior is part of the YAML
specification, but not tested by the `yaml-test-suite` (the parser needs to
emit events for both key-values). Additionally, there is no standard way of
defining which value should be chosen in case of a duplicate.
## v0.8.0
**Breaking Changes**:
- The `encoding` library has been replaced with `encoding_rs`. If you use the
`trap` of `YamlDecoder`, this change will make your code not compile.
An additional enum `YamlDecoderTrap` has been added to abstract the
underlying library and avoid breaking changes in the future. This
additionally lifts the `encoding` dependency on _your_ project if you were
using that feature.
- The signature of the function for `YamlDecoderTrap::Call` has changed:
- The `encoding::types::DecoderTrap` has been replaced with `YamlDecoderTrap`.
```rust
fn(_: &mut encoding::RawDecoder, _: &[u8], _: &mut encoding::StringWriter) -> bool;
fn(_: u8, _: u8, _: &[u8], _: &mut String) -> ControlFlow<Cow<'static str>>;
```
Please refer to the `YamlDecoderTrapFn` documentation for more details.
**Features**:
- Tags can now be retained across documents by calling `keep_tags(true)` on a
`Parser` before loading documents.
([#10](https://github.com/Ethiraric/yaml-rust2/issues/10)
([#12](https://github.com/Ethiraric/yaml-rust2/pull/12))
- `YamlLoader` structs now have a `documents()` method that returns the parsed
documents associated with a loader.
- `Parser::new_from_str(&str)` and `YamlLoader::load_from_parser(&Parser)` were added.
**Development**:
- Linguist attributes were added for the `tests/*.rs.inc` files to prevent github from
classifying them as C++ files.
## v0.7.0
**Features**:
- Multi-line strings are now
[emitted using block scalars](https://github.com/chyh1990/yaml-rust/pull/136).
- Error messages now contain a byte offset to aid debugging.
([#176](https://github.com/chyh1990/yaml-rust/pull/176))
- Yaml now has `or` and `borrowed_or` methods.
([#179](https://github.com/chyh1990/yaml-rust/pull/179))
- `Yaml::load_from_bytes()` is now available.
([#156](https://github.com/chyh1990/yaml-rust/pull/156))
- The parser and scanner now return Err() instead of calling panic.
**Development**:
- The documentation was updated to include a security note mentioning that
yaml-rust is safe because it does not interpret types.
([#195](https://github.com/chyh1990/yaml-rust/pull/195))
- Updated to quickcheck 1.0.
([#188](https://github.com/chyh1990/yaml-rust/pull/188))
- `hashlink` is [now used](https://github.com/chyh1990/yaml-rust/pull/157)
instead of `linked_hash_map`.
## v0.6.0
**Development**:
- `is_xxx` functions were moved into the private `char_traits` module.
- Benchmarking tools were added.
- Performance was improved.
## v0.5.0
- The parser now supports tag directives.
([#35](https://github.com/chyh1990/yaml-rust/issues/35)
- The `info` field has been exposed via a new `Yaml::info()` API method.
([#190](https://github.com/chyh1990/yaml-rust/pull/190))
