FAQ

Error: Nested mappings are not allowed in compact mappings

This error message occurs when a colon is used in the option value and an space character follows the colon. Just enclose the value of the option in quotes like alias: "title AS : Title :".

Error: Implicit map keys need to be followed by map values

There is a space missing between the <option>: and the value. The option should looks like <option>: <value>.

Error: All collection items must start at the same column

If an option value starts with a {, the text must be enclosed by quotes. For example change text: {{title}} match to text: "{{title}} match"

Error: e.slice is not a function

If an option value starts with a { and and ends with a } the text is interpreted as object. Enclose the value with quotes. For example change text: {{title}} to text: "{{title}}"
