Fast YAML

Build Status Coverage Status Hex version

Fast YAML is an Erlang wrapper for libyaml "C" library.

It is designed to be fast and efficient.

Installation

Dependencies

Fast YAML depends on native LibYaml library. You need development headers for LibYaml library to build it.

Generic build

You can trigger build with:

./configure && make

OSX build example

You can install LibYaml and with Homebrew:

brew install libyaml

You can then export environment variable to use LibYaml as installed by Homebrew, before issuing compilation commands:

export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib"
export CFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include"
export CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/local/include"

./configure && make

Example usage

erl -pa ebin -pa deps/*/ebin
Erlang/OTP 18 [erts-7.1] [source] [64-bit] [smp:4:4] [async-threads:10] [hipe] [kernel-poll:false] [dtrace]
