Crash on list with mixed dict and str items

[roastduck]

Hi,

In the following case

#' hello world
a: 1

a_list_of_mixed_dict_and_str:
  - x: 123
  - y

The following exception will be raised:

# Configuration Parameters Reference

Any information about this page goes here.

| Key | Value | Information |
| :-: | :-: | :-- |
| `a` | `1` | hello world |
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/home/rd/.local/bin/yamldoc", line 6, in <module>
    sys.exit(cli())
  File "/home/rd/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/yamldoc/cli.py", line 32, in cli
    yamldoc.main(**(vars(args)))
  File "/home/rd/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/yamldoc/parser.py", line 569, in main
    print(value.to_markdown())
  File "/home/rd/.local/lib/python3.10/site-packages/yamldoc/entries.py", line 144, in to_markdown
    output += entry.to_markdown(schema) + "\n"
AttributeError: 'ListElement' object has no attribute 'to_markdown'

It's fine with either one of - x: 123 or - y, but fails when both exist.

This is a bit trickier, what would you expect to see here? I've added a fix that creates this as:

┌─────┬───────┬─────────────┐
│ Key │ Value │ Information │
├─────┼───────┼─────────────┤
│  x  │  123  │             │
├─────┼───────┼─────────────┤
│  y  │       │             │
└─────┴───────┴─────────────┘

Personally I think this is the most straightforward, but would appreciate your thoughts.

After posting this issue, I end up gave up the any-yaml-compatible approach, and implemented an ad-hoc regex-based script for my need.

Still thank you for your reply!

[Chris1221]

No problem! The above should work now regardless, I'm happy to iterate a bit on whatever format would work best for you. It's an interesting use case!

[Chris1221]

I'll close this for now but feel free to add more thoughts or problems as they arise!

And yea, early on I decided not to support any valid yaml, the syntax is a bit of a mess in general so yamldoc is really only applicable to a very simple subset
