Replacements for js-yaml

js-yaml appears to be unmaintained and has known spec-compliance issues.

yaml

yaml is a well maintained YAML 1.2/1.1 parser/stringifier with better spec compliance, comment/AST support, and no deps.

Parse (load):

import yaml from 'js-yaml'
import { parse } from 'yaml'

const obj = yaml.load(src) 
const obj = parse(src) 

Stringify (dump):

import yaml from 'js-yaml'
import { stringify } from 'yaml'

const text = yaml.dump(obj) 
const text = stringify(obj) 

Multi-document:

import yaml from 'js-yaml'
import { parseAllDocuments } from 'yaml'

const out: any[] = [] 
yaml.loadAll(src, d => out.push(d)) 
const out = parseAllDocuments(src).map(d => d.toJSON())
