Class SnakeMamlParser

java.lang.Object

uk.ac.starlink.parquet.SnakeMamlParser

All Implemented Interfaces:

MamlParser

public class SnakeMamlParser
extends java.lang.Object
implements MamlParser

MamlParser based on the SnakeYaml library.

In principle, this implementation is coded from the MAML 1.0-1.2 format description at https://github.com/asgr/MAML-Format. In practice it was done partly by looking at example files in the same place.

MAML support in STIL is currently on a best-efforts basis. This implementation picks up some of the most useful metadata, but does not make great efforts to do the best thing in all cases.
