Usage

Here are some examples of how to use the Yamler library.

Yaml Object | Map

//FROM MAP
HashMap<String, String> l = new HashMap<>();
YamlObject yob = new YamlObject(l);

//FROM BYTES
byte[] b; //ARRAY OF BYTES
YamlObject yob = new YamlObject(b);

//CREATE YAML
YamlObject yob = new YamlObject();

Put | Get data

//ARRAY
yar.put(1000);
yar.get(0);

//MAP
yob.put("KEY", 100);
yob.get("KEY");

Encoding to byte array

yob.encode();

Readable String

System.out.println(yar.toString());
