[gatsby-transformer-yaml] README.md differs from reality

This issue refers to gatsby-transformer-yaml README.md. I’m using gatsby-transformer-yaml 1.5.12.

Summary: I believe README.md is not accurate or does not represent the current version thus needs to be updated.

Highlights:

• allLettersYaml instead of allLetters
• type is inside internal and does not reside alongside value

---

Issue 1. -Yaml ending.

The readme says: … Then the following three nodes would be created.

;[
  {
    value: "a",
    type: "Letters",
  },
  {
    value: "b",
    type: "Letters",
  },
  {
    value: "c",
    type: "Letters",
  },
]

However, after running gatsby with this directory structure:

src
\-- data
      \-- letters
           \-- letters.yml

I only have this node:

allLettersYaml

as opposed to

allLetters

as stated in the README. I don’t knkow where the Yaml ending comes from.

Issue 2. - type does not exist

The Readme says:

;[
  {
    value: "a",
    type: "Letters",
  },
  {
    value: "b",
    type: "Letters",
  },
  {
    value: "c",
    type: "Letters",
  },
]

However, running allLettersYaml through GraphQL:

allLettersYaml {
  edges {
      node {
        value
        type
      }
  }
}

Doesn’t work, because there is no type field. Looking up the source code reveals that this happens because type is inside internal.

But, this works:

allLettersYaml {
  edges {
      node {
        value
        internal {
          type
        }
      }
  }
}

Conclusion

I believe the Readme needs updating, but it could also be that I’m wrong, maybe I use the wrong version or interpreted the Readme wrongly. If I’m right and indeed the Readme needs updating, I’d like to give PR.

Thank you.

@DamnedScholar does your yaml file have a field named “value”?

@Charon77 you’re right! Would you like to PR a fix?

I’m having all of the same problems, except that I can’t even get value out of my YAML nodes (image below). The readme definitely needs to be updated to the correct information. I used npm install gatsby-transformer-yaml yesterday, so I know for sure that I have 1.5.12.
