- # YAML <a href="https://www.npmjs.com/package/yaml"><img align="right" src="https://badge.fury.io/js/yaml.svg" title="npm package" /></a>
-
- `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/v1**](https://eemeli.org/yaml/v1/)
-
- To install:
-
- ```sh
- npm install yaml
- ```
-
- **Note:** This is `yaml@1`. You may also be interested in the next version, currently available as [`yaml@next`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/yaml/v/next).
-
- ## API Overview
-
- The API provided by `yaml` has three layers, depending on how deep you need to go: [Parse & Stringify](https://eemeli.org/yaml/v1/#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')
- ```
-

- - [`new Pair(key, value)`](https://eemeli.org/yaml/v1/#creating-nodes)
- - [`new YAMLMap()`](https://eemeli.org/yaml/v1/#creating-nodes)
- - [`new YAMLSeq()`](https://eemeli.org/yaml/v1/#creating-nodes)

- ### CST Parser
-
- ```js
- import parseCST from 'yaml/parse-cst'
- ```
-
- - [`parseCST(str): CSTDocument[]`](https://eemeli.org/yaml/v1/#parsecst)
- - [`YAML.parseCST(str): CSTDocument[]`](https://eemeli.org/yaml/v1/#parsecst)
-
- ## YAML.parse
-
- ```yaml
- # file.yml
- YAML:
- - A human-readable data serialization language
- - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YAML
- yaml:
- - A complete JavaScript implementation
- - https://www.npmjs.com/package/yaml
- ```
-
- ```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:
- // [ 'A human-readable data serialization language',
- // 'https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/YAML' ],
- // yaml:
- // [ 'A complete JavaScript implementation',
- // 'https://www.npmjs.com/package/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
- // block: >
- // two
- //
- // lines
- // `
- ```
