npm install node-yamlA wrapper for js-yaml parser
This documentation is actual for next major version of the library.
If you want the documentation of current stable version, please check out the 3.x branch.
You can install this module from Yarn:
``
yarn add node-yaml js-yaml
Or using NPM:
`
npm install node-yaml js-yaml
1. Let's read some file from given path using node-yaml:
`js
import {read} from "node-yaml"
read("path/to/file.yaml")
.then(res => console.log("File content:\n\n%s", JSON.stringify(res, null, 2)))
.catch(err => console.error("Error while reading file:\n\n%s", String(err)))
`
2. Both read and readSync methods allows to omit file extension:
`js
import {readSync} from "node-yaml"
// Will read the content from given path, but also resolve file extension
// Note that if you have 2 files with the same name,
// the first matched will be read.
readSync("path/to/file")
`
