@stoplight/yaml
Advanced tools
@stoplight/yaml is a versatile npm package that provides utilities for parsing, stringifying, and processing YAML data. It is particularly useful for developers working with YAML configurations, API specifications, and other structured data formats.
Parsing YAML to JavaScript Object
This feature allows you to convert a YAML string into a JavaScript object. The `parse` function takes a YAML string as input and returns the corresponding JavaScript object.
const { parse } = require('@stoplight/yaml');
const yamlString = 'key: value\nlist:\n - item1\n - item2';
const jsObject = parse(yamlString);
console.log(jsObject);
Stringifying JavaScript Object to YAML
This feature allows you to convert a JavaScript object into a YAML string. The `stringify` function takes a JavaScript object as input and returns the corresponding YAML string.
const { stringify } = require('@stoplight/yaml');
const jsObject = { key: 'value', list: ['item1', 'item2'] };
const yamlString = stringify(jsObject);
console.log(yamlString);
Handling YAML Errors
This feature demonstrates how to handle errors that may occur during YAML parsing. The `parse` function will throw an error if the input YAML string is invalid, which can be caught and handled appropriately.
const { parse } = require('@stoplight/yaml');
try {
const jsObject = parse('invalid: yaml: string');
} catch (error) {
console.error('YAML parsing error:', error.message);
}

yarn add @stoplight/yaml
// basic example of parseWithPointers
import { parseWithPointers } from "@stoplight/yaml";
const result = parseWithPointers("foo: bar");
console.log(result.data); // => the {foo: "bar"} JS object
console.log(result.pointers); // => the source map with a single "#/foo" pointer that has position info for the foo property
