Features

• YAML Processing - Provides a complete system for decoding YAML encoded bytes or streams into native Go data structures.
• YAML Parsers - Implements a complete library for encoding and decoding YAML data into native Go data structures.
• Resource-Constrained Parsing - Provides a YAML decoder with built-in protections against DoS attacks via depth and alias limits.
• YAML Configuration Files - Enables the reading and validation of YAML configuration files to initialize application settings in Go.
• Data Serialization Formats - Provides workflows for converting complex Go data structures into standardized YAML for storage or transmission.
• Interface-Based Marshaling - Allows custom types to define their own encoding logic by implementing standard marshaler interfaces.
• YAML-to-Object Mapping - Maps YAML data to typed Go structs using inline annotations to link keys to embedded types.
• Deterministic Serialization - Produces consistently ordered YAML output from maps to ensure stable version control diffs and predictable exports.
• Document Security Limits - Parses untrusted YAML input while enforcing strict limits on document depth and aliases to prevent resource exhaustion.
• Computational Resource Protections - Protects against denial-of-service attacks by enforcing maximum limits on document depth and alias counts.
• Deserialization Depth Limiting - Provides security-driven limits on the nesting level of objects during deserialization to prevent resource exhaustion attacks.
• Reflection-Based Map Mapping - Employs language reflection and struct tags to dynamically map YAML keys to typed Go struct fields.
• Key Sorting - Ensures deterministic YAML output by consistently sorting map keys regardless of their types.
• Configuration Management - YAML parsing library.
• JSON and Data Serialization - Library for encoding and decoding YAML data structures.
