yamlier

a Super simple cli yaml editor.

If you have to edit yaml file on CI/CD pipeline or other situations, just use it.

install

wget https://github.com/jujumilk3/yamlier/releases/download/v0.2.0/yamlier.{os}.{arcihtecture} -O ./yamlier
chmod +x ./yamlier
Of course, if you want to use it globally, You have to move it into bin dir that referenced by your account.

for example

1. MacOS(amd64)

   $ wget https://github.com/jujumilk3/yamlier/releases/download/v0.2.0/yamlier.darwin.amd64 -O ./yamlier
   chmod +x ./yamlier

2. cd yamlier
3. go mod tidy -> install packages and code described at go.mod
4. go tool dist list -> chk dist list
