Serializing

I took a look at the related PR: #158
And found the serde_seq, but didn't see how to apply it outside of a struct.

I'm just trying to serialize an index map. The project is for helping me learn rust, so I don't have a ton of experience.
Using HashMap in place of IndexMap works, other than the fact that I need keys to be in order.

It looks from the PR that you have implmented Serialize, so I don't fully understand why rust is complaining about it not being implemented. Any suggestions for yaml serialization?

error[E0277]: the trait bound `IndexMap<&str, std::option::Option<serde_json::Value>>: Serialize` is not satisfied

Nope, I'll try that. And if there's an enable-all-features option I'll probably switch to that as well. I'll post on here once I get back into the codebase

Thanks!

Thanks both. Using the required feature should be enough, feel free to open an issue if it doesn't work with that. 🙂
