## Importing/exporting YAML values

Support for YAML parsing and rendering was first added in liquidsoap `2.2.0`. This support follows the same pattern as JSON parsing/rendering but using yaml-based syntax, i.e.:

    let yaml.parse ({
      name,
      version,
      scripts,
    } : {
      name: string,
      version: string,
      scripts: {
        test: string?
      }?
    }) = file.contents("/path/to/file.yaml")

and

    r = {artist = "Bla", title = "Blo"}
    print(yaml.stringify(r))

The only major difference being that, in YAML, all numbers are parsed and rendered as floats.

Please refer to the JSON parsing and rendering documentation for more details.
