Feature #2784

closed

The formatting options hash passed to the to_yaml methods do nothing.

Added by anshul (Anshul Khandelwal) over 14 years ago. Updated over 13 years ago.

Status:
Closed
Target version:
[ruby-core:28318]

Description

=begin
At the moment, there appears to be no documented way to format the output of the various to_yaml methods. They all accept an options hash but the documentation does not specify what options may be passed.

Also, the use of to_yaml_style is undocumented.

class Array
   def to_yaml_style
     :inline
   end
end

results in inline formatting of the resulting yaml. This is not documented anywhere but works.

This is further described in [1] and [2].

=begin
Is this really a bug?
There is no documentation and doesn't work;
it is considered that there was no such function.

So my understanding is, this should be feature request.
Yeah, such function seems useful, but I don't have how it should works.
