Simple CLI tool and library to convert YAML to JSON and vice versa.

CLI Tool

Installation

• deno.land/x:

deno install --allow-read --allow-write https://deno.land/x/y2j/cli.ts

• denopkg.com:

deno install --allow-read --allow-write https://denopkg.com/UltiRequiem/y2j/cli.ts

• nest.land:

deno install --allow-read --allow-write https://x.nest.land/y2j@1.1.1/mod.ts

Usage

Examples using example.json and example.yaml.

$ y2j --file example.json
menu:
  id: file
  value: File
  popup:
    menuitem:
      - value: New
        onclick: CreateNewDoc()
      - value: Open
        onclick: OpenDoc()
      - value: Close
        onclick: CloseDoc()

$ y2j --file example.yaml
{
  "menu": {
    "id": "file",
    "value": "File",
    "popup": {
      "menuitem": [
        { "value": "New", "onclick": "CreateNewDoc()" },
        { "value": "Open", "onclick": "OpenDoc()" },
        { "value": "Close", "onclick": "CloseDoc()" }
      ]
    }
  }
}

If you pass the --write the output will not be printed. Instead it will be in a new file with the same name, but with other extension.
