DESCRIPTION

The emitter emits events to YAML. It provides methods for each event type. The arguments are mostly the same as the events from YAML::PP::Parser.

METHODS

my $emitter = YAML::PP::Emitter−>new(
indent => 4,
);

Constructor. Currently takes these options:
indent
writer

stream_start_event, stream_end_event, document_start_event,
document_end_event, sequence_start_event, sequence_end_event,
mapping_start_event, mapping_end_event, scalar_event, alias_event
indent, set_indent

Getter/setter for number of indentation spaces.
