YAML tool

pipeline status

YAML tool, a clone of the json.tool Python module for YAML.

This tool provides a simple command line interface to validate and pretty-print YAML documents while trying to preserve as much as possible from the original documents (like comments and anchors).

Usage

usage: yt [-h] [-i] [files ...]

YAML tool, a clone of the json.tool Python module for YAML.

This tool provides a simple command line interface to validate and pretty-print
YAML documents while trying to preserve as much as possible from the original
documents (like comments and anchors).

positional arguments:
  files           a YAML file to be validated or pretty-printed

optional arguments:
  -h, --help      show this help message and exit
  -i, --in-place  Perform the pretty-print in place, overwriting the existing files.

When enabling --in-place, all files are processed as input files.
When --in-place is not enabled and there are more then 2 files
passed, the last files is considered as the output file. If you
wish to pretty-print multiple files and output to standard out,
specify the last file as "-" .
Please note that specifying multiple input files will concatenate
them, resulting in a single file that has multiple documents.
