Motivation

It started by not being able to find an API that fulfilled my needs in simplicity and performance. So I developed Dream-Yaml with the goal of having a simple, performant, and reliable API for processing YAML files. To achieve these goals, only the most essential parts of YAML have been implemented.

Getting started

DreamYaml yaml = new DreamYaml(System.getProperty("user.dir")+"/src/test/simple-example.yml");

yaml.put("name")         .setDefValues("John");
yaml.put("last-name")    .setDefValues("Goldman");
yaml.put("age")          .setDefValues("29");
yaml.put("work")         .setDefValues("Reporter");
yaml.put("pending-tasks").setDefValues("do research", "buy food", "start working");

yaml.save();
