py2j is a lightweight Python library that converts YAML data to JSON. Not to be confused with log2j, or y2k.
This project is currently in development.
Just import the library and then use parse_f
.
from py2j import parse_f
# If you want JSON.
data = parse_f("./input_file.yml")
# If you just want a regular Python dictionary.
data = parse_f("./input_file.yml", jsout=False)
