Schemas§

Schemas were introduced in YAML 1.2 as a convenient way to define a set of tags.

YAML 1.2 Schemas:

• CORE_SCHEMA (default)
• JSON_SCHEMA
• FAILSAFE_SCHEMA

Additional Schemas:

• YAML11_SCHEMA — YAML 1.1 did not define schemas; this convenience schema provides the corresponding set of tags.
• DUMP_SCHEMA — combines all supported YAML 1.1 and YAML 1.2 type variants for better compatibility.

You will usually use one of the preferred schemas above and customize it with Schema.withTags().
