YamlMember Alias usage about yamldotnet

[EdwardCooke]

It could be the deserializerbuilder options that are set. Can you try deserializing it by itself without the configuration stuff?

something like
var yaml=….
var deserializer = new DeserializerBuilder().Build();
var o = deserializer.Deserialize<List>(yaml);

What library/code are you using to add the yaml file to the configuration object?

I tried to deserializing it by itself and it didn't work without YamlMember attribute this time, but when I specified the Alias it worked.

Looks like you are right about deserializerbuilder options affecting this.

I'm using generic host configuration for adding yaml file to the config object:

    builder.ConfigureAppConfiguration(options =>
    {
        options.AddYamlFile("config.yml", false);
        options.AddYamlFile("language.yml", false);
    });

This is used for a Discord.NET bot which is not supported by generic host by default, so I use Discord.Addons.Hosting for this.

Since we've narrowed it down to whatever the library you are using to add the Yaml to your configuration is doing and not an issue with YamlDotNet, I'm going to close this issue.
