PenningtonYamlContextProvider Pennington.FrontMatter

Routes a type to the registered YamlSerializerContext that knows it — the built-in PenningtonYamlContext, a satellite package context, or one a user added via AddYamlContext — and falls back to reflection for everything else. A source-generated context only serves the types it was generated for and rejects foreign options, so each type is dispatched to its own context rather than combined into a single resolver.

Properties

Default PenningtonYamlContextProvider
A provider seeded with only the built-in context, for non-DI use (tests, scripts).

Constructors

PenningtonYamlContextProvider

#
public PenningtonYamlContextProvider(IEnumerable<YamlSerializerContext> contexts)

Initializes the provider with the serializer contexts registered in DI.

Parameters

contexts IEnumerable<YamlSerializerContext>
Registered contexts; the built-in PenningtonYamlContext is always present.

Methods

Deserialize<T>

#
public T Deserialize<T>(string yaml)

Deserializes yaml into T using the source-generated context that covers T, or reflection when none does.

Parameters

yaml string
Raw YAML text.

Returns

T
