readString

fun readString(content: String): Map<String, Any?>

Parses a YAML string directly into a flat/nested map.

Primarily useful for unit tests and scenarios where the YAML content is already available in memory (e.g. fetched from a remote source).

This method is thread-safe - each thread uses its own Yaml parser instance.

Return

A map representing the top-level YAML mapping, or an empty map if the content is empty or does not contain a mapping.

Parameters

content

The raw YAML string to parse.
