#r "Legivel.Parser.dll"
#r "Legivel.Mapper.dll"
open Legivel.Serialization

type PlayEvent = {
  time   : string
  player : string
  action : string
}

//  example : http://www.yaml.org/spec/1.2/spec.html#id2760519
let yaml = "
---
time: 20:03:20
player: Sammy Sosa
action: strike (miss)
...
---
time: 20:03:47
player: Sammy Sosa
action: grand slam
..."

1:	`Deserialize<PlayEvent> yaml`

Which results in:

[Succes {Data = {time = "20:03:20";
                 player = "Sammy Sosa";
                 action = "strike (miss)";};
         Warn = [];}; Succes {Data = {time = "20:03:47";
                                      player = "Sammy Sosa";
                                      action = "grand slam";};
                              Warn = [];}]
