yaml_parse_url

Parse a Yaml stream from a URL

Description

mixed yaml_parse_url ( string $url [, int $pos = 0 [, int &$ndocs [, array $callbacks ]]] )

Convert all or part of a YAML document stream read from a URL to a PHP variable.

Parameters

url

url should be of the form "scheme://...". PHP will search for a protocol handler (also known as a wrapper) for that scheme. If no wrappers for that protocol are registered, PHP will emit a notice to help you track potential problems in your script and then continue as though filename specifies a regular file.

pos

Document to extract from stream (-1 for all documents, 0 for first document, ...).

ndocs

If ndocs is provided, then it is filled with the number of documents found in stream.

callbacks

Content handlers for YAML nodes. Associative array of YAML tag => callable mappings. See parse callbacks for more

Return Values

Returns the value encoded in input in appropriate PHP type or FALSE on failure. If pos is -1 an array will be returned with one entry for each document found in the stream.
