PyYAML is a YAML parser and emitter for the Python programming language.
PyYAML features :
* a complete YAML 1.1 parser. In particular, PyYAML can parse all examples
from the specification. The parsing algorithm is simple enough to be a
reference for YAML parser implementors.
* Unicode support including UTF-8/UTF-16 input/output and \u escape
sequences.
* low-level event-based parser and emitter API (like SAX).
* high-level API for serializing and deserializing native Python objects
(like DOM or pickle).
* support for all types from the YAML types repository. A simple extension
API is provided.
* relatively sensible error messages.
