libdata-yaml-perl binary package in Ubuntu Xenial amd64
In the spirit of YAML::Tiny, Data::YAML::Reader and Data::YAML::Writer
provide lightweight, dependency-free YAML handling. While YAML::Tiny is
designed principally for working with configuration files Data::YAML
concentrates on the transparent round-tripping of YAML serialized Perl data
structures.
.
As an example of why this distinction matters consider that YAML::Tiny
doesn't handle hashes with keys containing non-printable characters. This is
fine for configuration files but likely to cause problems when handling
arbitrary Perl data structures. Data::YAML handles exotic hash keys
correctly.
.
The syntax accepted by Data::YAML is a subset of YAML. Specifically it is the
same subset of YAML that Data::YAML::Writer produces. See Data::YAML for more
information.
