disable anchors in stringify

[dudif91]

hi, is there a way to disable anchors such as &a1 when using stringify.

I'm using YAML version 1.10.0

tnx

I'm pretty sure that using just YAML.stringify() that isn't possible, but this will probably do what you want:

const doc = new YAML.Document()
doc.setSchema()
doc.contents = doc.schema.createNode(yourValueHere)
String(doc)

The reason why that works is that in v1 the automatic reference detection was a part of the stringify method in particular, while createNode didn't include it. This changes (along with some of the clumsiness of the above API) in v2, but that's an entirely different issue.

Can this be made into an option of stringify()?
