This tool transforms Yet Another Markup Language (YAML) data to Comma Separated Values (CSV) format. If we compare the two formats, YAML is a human-readable format used in software configuration files and it supports complex hierarchies, whereas CSV is a simpler tabular format utilized for storing data, with entries separated by commas (or a delimiter of your choice). Converting YAML to CSV is useful because the simple structure of a CSV file is easier to understand and manipulate for humans and computer programs alike. The CSV format is universally supported by almost all software (including spreadsheets) and it's ideal for analysis and sharing. In the options of this program, you can customize the CSV delimiter symbol (by default it's a comma) and enclose CSV values in quotes. The default quotation symbol is double-quotes (") but you can choose any other symbol. Additionally, you can choose whether to include or exclude CSV column headers. If the "Create CSV Headers" option is enabled, the program uses YAML keys as CSV column names, otherwise, the first row is skipped and the columns aren't given names. To convert CSV back to YAML, you can use our Convert CSV to YAML tool. Csv-abulous!
In this example, we convert weather data from the complicated YAML format to the simple and universally parsable CSV format. The input data contains a list of YAML objects that include weather details about four of the biggest cities in the world – New York, London, Tokyo, and Paris. This data also includes the corresponding dates, Fahrenheit temperatures, and precipitation conditions. When we transform this YAML into a CSV file, the output headers are automatically generated from the YAML keys (city, date, temperature, precipitation). The temperature data in Celsius is not converted from the YAML, as it's added as a comment after the symbol # (comment symbol).
In this example, we transform animal characteristics stored in the YAML format (as a list of lists) into a concise CSV structure. The input data contains information about various cat and dog breeds, their fur types, and running speeds. The cats include Siamese and Persian, and the dogs include Border Collie and Greyhound. The output CSV contains as many rows as there are YAML lists as the headers aren't created (the "Create CSV Headers" option is off).
In this example, we convert employee information that's stored in a YAML file into a CSV file. The input configuration file consists of a list of YAML employee objects, which include their IDs, names, and corresponding departments. We use the YAML object keys to generate CSV data headers and configure the output CSV to use the non-standard en dash "–" symbol as a field delimiter. Additionally, for better readability, we wrap all CSV fields in double-quotes.
You can pass input to this tool via ?input query argument and it will automatically compute output. Here's how to type it in your browser's address bar. Click to try!
