yaml0.1.0起可用
Reads structured data from a YAML file.
The file must contain a valid YAML object or array. The YAML values will be converted into corresponding Typst values as listed in the table below.
The function returns a dictionary, an array or, depending on the YAML file, another YAML data type.
The YAML files in the example contain objects with authors as keys, each with a sequence of their own submapping with the keys “title” and “published”.
Example
#let bookshelf(contents) = {
for (author, works) in contents {
author
for work in works [
- #work.title (#work.published)
]
}
}
#bookshelf(
yaml("scifi-authors.yaml")
)
Conversion details
| YAML value | Converted into Typst |
|---|---|
null-values (null, ~ or empty ) | none |
| boolean | bool |
| number | float or int |
| string | str |
| sequence | array |
| mapping | dictionary |
| Typst value | Converted into YAML |
|---|---|
| types that can be converted from YAML | corresponding YAML value |
bytes | string via repr |
symbol | string |
content | a mapping describing the content |
other types (length, etc.) | string via repr |
Notes
In most cases, YAML numbers will be converted to floats or integers depending on whether they are whole numbers. However, be aware that integers larger than 263−1 or smaller than −263 will be converted to floating-point numbers, which may result in an approximative value.
Custom YAML tags are ignored, though the loaded value will still be present.
Bytes are not encoded as YAML sequences for performance and readability reasons. Consider using
cbor.encodefor binary data.The
reprfunction is for debugging purposes only, and its output is not guaranteed to be stable across Typst versions.
