yaml
====
Pulls deck data from a YAML files into a ``Squib::DataFrame`` (essentially a hash of arrays).
Parsing uses Ruby's built-in Yaml package.
The ``yaml`` method is a member of ``Squib::Deck``, but it is also available outside of the Deck DSL with ``Squib.yaml()``. This allows a construction like::
data = Squib.Yaml file: 'data.yml'
Squib::Deck.new(cards: data['name'].size) do
end
The Yaml file format assumes that the entire deck is an array, then each element of the array is a hash. Every key encountered in that hash will translate to a "column" in the data frame. If a key exists in one card and not in another, then it defaults to ``nil``.
.. warning::
Case matters in your Yaml keys.
Options
-------
file
default: ``'deck.yml'``
the YAML-formatted file to open. Opens relative to the current directory. If ``data`` is set, this option is overridden.
data
default: ``nil``
when set, method will parse this Yaml data instead of reading the file.
explode
default: ``'qty'``
Quantity explosion will be applied to the column this name. For example, rows in the csv with a ``'qty'`` of 3 will be duplicated 3 times.
Individual Pre-processing
-------------------------
The ``yaml`` method also takes in a block that will be executed for each cell in your data. This is useful for processing individual cells, like putting a dollar sign in front of dollars, or converting from a float to an integer. The value of the block will be what is assigned to that cell. For example::
resource_data = Squib.yaml(file: 'sample.yaml') do |header, value|
case header
when 'Cost'
"$#{value}k" # e.g. "3" becomes "$3k"
else
value # always return the original value if you didn't do anything to it
end
end
