=head1 NAME

Data::YAML::Writer - Easy YAML serialisation

=head1 VERSION

This document describes Data::YAML::Writer version 0.0.6

=head1 SYNOPSIS
    
    use Data::YAML::Writer;
    
    my $data = {
        one => 1,
        two => 2,
        three => [ 1, 2, 3 ],
    };
    
    my $yw = Data::YAML::Writer->new;
    
    # Write to an array...
    $yw->write( $data, \@some_array );
    
    # ...an open file handle...
    $yw->write( $data, $some_file_handle );
    
    # ...a string ...
    $yw->write( $data, \$some_string );
    
    # ...or a closure
    $yw->write( $data, sub {
        my $line = shift;
        print "$line\n";
    } );


=head1 DESCRIPTION

Encodes a scalar, hash reference or array reference as YAML.

In the spirit of L<YAML::Tiny> this is a lightweight, dependency-free
YAML writer. While C<YAML::Tiny> is designed principally for working
with configuration files C<Data::YAML> concentrates on the transparent
round-tripping of YAML serialized Perl data structures.

The syntax produced by C<Data::YAML::Writer> is a subset of YAML.
Specifically it is the same subset of YAML that L<Data::YAML::Reader>
consumes. See L<Data::YAML> for more information.

=head1 INTERFACE

=over

=item C<< new >>

The constructor C<new> creates and returns an empty C<Data::YAML::Writer> object.

=item C<< write( $obj, $output ) >>

Encode a scalar, hash reference or array reference as YAML.

    my $writer = sub {
        my $line = shift;
        print SOMEFILE "$line\n";
    };
    
    my $data = {
        one => 1,
        two => 2,
        three => [ 1, 2, 3 ],
    };
    
    my $yw = Data::YAML::Writer->new;
    $yw->write( $data, $writer );


The C< $output > argument may be

=over

=item * a reference to a scalar to append YAML to

=item * the handle of an open file

=item * a reference to an array into which YAML will be pushed

=item * a code reference

=back

If you supply a code reference the subroutine will be called once for
each line of output with the line as its only argument. Passed lines
will have no trailing newline.
