updateYamlValue method

Future<void> updateYamlValue(File yamlFile, List<Object> path, Object newValue)

Safely updates a value in a YAML file using YamlEditor. Preserves comments and formatting.

Implementation

Future<void> updateYamlValue(
    File yamlFile, List<Object> path, Object newValue) async {
  if (!yamlFile.existsSync()) {
    Logger.warning(
        'Cannot update YAML: File not found at "${yamlFile.path}"');
    return;
  }

  try {
    final content = await yamlFile.readAsString();
    final editor = YamlEditor(content);
    editor.update(path, newValue);
    await yamlFile.writeAsString(editor.toString());
  } catch (e) {
    Logger.warning(
      'Could not update YAML path "${path.join('.')}" in "${yamlFile.path}": $e',
    );
  }
}
