The style operator can be used to get or set the style of nodes (e.g. string style, yaml style) ## Examples ### Set tagged style Given a sample.yml file of: ```yaml a: cat b: 5 c: 3.2 e: true ``` then ```bash yq eval '.. style="tagged"' sample.yml ``` will output ```yaml !!map a: !!str cat b: !!int 5 c: !!float 3.2 e: !!bool true ``` ### Set double quote style Given a sample.yml file of: ```yaml a: cat b: 5 c: 3.2 e: true ``` then ```bash yq eval '.. style="double"' sample.yml ``` will output ```yaml a: "cat" b: "5" c: "3.2" e: "true" ``` ### Set single quote style Given a sample.yml file of: ```yaml a: cat b: 5 c: 3.2 e: true ``` then ```bash yq eval '.. style="single"' sample.yml ``` will output ```yaml a: 'cat' b: '5' c: '3.2' e: 'true' ``` ### Set literal quote style Given a sample.yml file of: ```yaml a: cat b: 5 c: 3.2 e: true ``` then ```bash yq eval '.. style="literal"' sample.yml ``` will output ```yaml a: |- cat b: |- 5 c: |- 3.2 e: |- true ``` ### Set folded quote style Given a sample.yml file of: ```yaml a: cat b: 5 c: 3.2 e: true ``` then ```bash yq eval '.. style="folded"' sample.yml ``` will output ```yaml a: >- cat b: >- 5 c: >- 3.2 e: >- true ``` ### Set flow quote style Given a sample.yml file of: ```yaml a: cat b: 5 c: 3.2 e: true ``` then ```bash yq eval '.. style="flow"' sample.yml ``` will output ```yaml {a: cat, b: 5, c: 3.2, e: true} ``` ### Set empty (default) quote style Given a sample.yml file of: ```yaml a: cat b: 5 c: 3.2 e: true ``` then ```bash yq eval '.. style=""' sample.yml ``` will output ```yaml a: cat b: 5 c: 3.2 e: true ``` ### Set style using a path Given a sample.yml file of: ```yaml a: cat b: double ``` then ```bash yq eval '.a style=.b' sample.yml ``` will output ```yaml a: "cat" b: double ``` ### Example 8 Given a sample.yml file of: ```yaml a: cat b: dog ``` then ```bash yq eval '.. style=""' sample.yml ``` will output ```yaml a: cat b: dog ``` ### Example 9 Given a sample.yml file of: ```yaml a: cat b: thing ``` then ```bash yq eval '.. | style' sample.yml ``` will output ```yaml ``` ### Example 10 Given a sample.yml file of: ```yaml a: cat ``` then ```bash yq eval '.. | style' sample.yml ``` will output ```yaml ```
