hypens and comments

[jkears]

The YAML I need to produce has a parameter that includes a hypen such as log-level: debug. How do I achieve this with C# class? Is that using JSON name attribute?

Also how can I inject comments for example # log-level configures the log level

I have same use case as @jkears . Is it already supported or not? Thanks.

Yes, you can use the [YamlMember] attribute to do both of these.

using YamlDotNet.Serialization;

var serializer = new YamlDotNet.Serialization.SerializerBuilder().Build();
Console.WriteLine(serializer.Serialize(new Test() { LogLevel = "info" }));

class Test
{
    [YamlMember(Alias = "log-level", Description = "log-level configures the log level")]
    public string LogLevel { get; set; }
}

Results in this:

# log-level configures the log level
log-level: info
