# 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 definitive library for [YAML](https://yaml.org/), the human friendly data serialization standard.
|
|
This library:
|
|
|
|
- Supports both YAML 1.1 and YAML 1.2 and all common data schemas,
|
|
- Passes all of the [yaml-test-suite](https://github.com/yaml/yaml-test-suite) tests,
|
|
- Can accept any string as input without throwing, parsing as much YAML out of it as it can, and
|
|
- Supports parsing, modifying, and writing YAML comments and blank lines.
|
|
|
|
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 as well as modern browsers.
|
|
|
|
For the purposes of versioning, any changes that break any of the documented endpoints or APIs will be considered semver-major breaking changes.
|
|
Undocumented library internals may change between minor versions, and previous APIs may be deprecated (but not removed).
|
|
|
|
The minimum supported TypeScript version of the included typings is 3.9;
|
|
for use in earlier versions you may need to set `skipLibCheck: true` in your config.
|
|
This requirement may be updated between minor versions of the library.
|
|
|
|
For more information, see the project's documentation site: [**eemeli.org/yaml**](https://eemeli.org/yaml/)
|
|
|
|
To install:
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
npm install yaml
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Note:** These docs are for `yaml@2`. For v1, see the [v1.10.0 tag](https://github.com/eemeli/yaml/tree/v1.10.0) for the source and [eemeli.org/yaml/v1](https://eemeli.org/yaml/v1/) for the documentation.

## 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 underlying [Lexer/Parser/Composer](https://eemeli.org/yaml/#parsing-yaml).
|
|
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 lets you get progressively closer to YAML source, if that's your thing.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
import { parse, stringify } from 'yaml'
|
|
// or
|
|
import YAML from 'yaml'
|
|
// or
|
|
const YAML = require('yaml')
|
|
```
