  • Summary

  • In this second (and final) installment about YAML, Bart teaches us who to write multi-line strings and how not to write multi-line strings. He teaches us about String Blocks which is a bit head-bendy but allows you to write human-readable strings and also tell YAML what to do with empty lines and white space.

    After that slightly heavy lift, we learn about how to write much simpler-looking Sequences and Mappings than the way we learned in our introduction to YAML in PBS 168. It's really nifty how you can write them in compact, sensible forms, and even easily combine separate YAML documents into the same sequence or mapping.

    Finally we learn how to use the `yq` language to query JSON, CSV, and XML files using a language that uses `jq` syntax so you'll feel right at home.
