`yaml` is a JavaScript parser and stringifier for [YAML](http://yaml.org/), a human friendly data serialization standard. It supports both parsing and stringifying data using all versions of YAML, along with all common data schemas. As a particularly distinguishing feature, `yaml` fully supports reading and writing comments and blank lines in YAML documents.
|
|
|
|
The library is released under the ISC open source license, and the code is [available on GitHub](https://github.com/eemeli/yaml/). It has no external dependencies and runs on Node.js 6 and later, and in browsers from IE 11 upwards.
|
|
|
|
For the purposes of versioning, any changes that break any of the endpoints or APIs documented here will be considered semver-major breaking changes. Undocumented library internals may change between minor versions, and previous APIs may be deprecated (but not removed).
|
|
|
|
For more information, see the project's documentation site: [**eemeli.org/yaml**](https://eemeli.org/yaml/)
|
|
|
|
To install:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
npm install yaml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note: `yaml` 0.x and 1.x are rather different implementations. For the earlier `yaml`, see [tj/js-yaml](https://github.com/tj/js-yaml).

## API Overview
|
|
|
|
The API provided by `yaml` has three layers, depending on how deep you need to go: [Parse & Stringify](https://eemeli.org/yaml/#parse-amp-stringify), [Documents](https://eemeli.org/yaml/#documents), and the [CST Parser](https://eemeli.org/yaml/#cst-parser). The first has the simplest API and "just works", the second gets you all the bells and whistles supported by the library along with a decent [AST](https://eemeli.org/yaml/#content-nodes), and the third is the closest to YAML source, making it fast, raw, and crude.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
import YAML from 'yaml'
|
|
// or
|
|
const YAML = require('yaml')
|
|
```
|
|
|

## YAML.parse

|
```yaml

# file.yml

|
```
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
import fs from 'fs'
|
|
import YAML from 'yaml'
|
|
|
|
YAML.parse('3.14159')
|
|
// 3.14159
|
|
|
|
YAML.parse('[ true, false, maybe, null ]\n')
|
|
// [ true, false, 'maybe', null ]
|
|
|
|
const file = fs.readFileSync('./file.yml', 'utf8')
|
|
YAML.parse(file)
|
|
// { YAML:

```
|
|
|
|
## YAML.stringify
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
import YAML from 'yaml'
|
|
|
|
YAML.stringify(3.14159)
|
|
// '3.14159\n'
|
|
|
|
YAML.stringify([true, false, 'maybe', null])
|
|
// `- true
|
|
// - false
|
|
// - maybe
|
|
// - null
|
|
// `
|
|
|
|
YAML.stringify({ number: 3, plain: 'string', block: 'two\nlines\n' })
|
|
// `number: 3
|
|
// plain: string
