PyYAML is a YAML parser and emitter for +Python. + +PyYAML features a complete YAML 1.1 parser, Unicode support, pickle support, +capable extension API, and sensible error messages. PyYAML supports standard +YAML tags and provides Python-specific tags that allow to represent an +arbitrary Python object. + +PyYAML is applicable for a broad range of tasks from complex configuration +files to object serialization and persistence. + + +Example +======= + +``` +>>> import yaml + +>>> yaml.full_load(""" +... name: PyYAML +... description: YAML parser and emitter for Python +... homepage: https://github.com/yaml/pyyaml +... keywords: [YAML, serialization, configuration, persistence, pickle] +...
