Yamlenv

Interpolate YaML files with environmental variables and other YaML files.

Given a YaML string like:

a: ${A}
b: 2

and an environmental variable $A with value hello, yamlenv.load would return:

{
    a: 'hello',
    b: 2
}

Default values are supported:

yamlenv.load('''
    a: ${A:-hello}
    b: 2
''') == {
    'a': 'hello',
    'b': 2
}

The environmental variable can be embedded in a larger string, too:

yamlenv.load('''
    a: foo ${A:-bar} baz
    b: 2
''') == {
    'a': 'foo bar baz',
    'b': 2
}

YaML files can include other YaML files, too. E.g. if b.yaml contains "2", then:

yamlenv.load('''
    a: 1
    b: !include b.yaml
''') == {
    'a': 1
    'b': 2
}

The included YaML file can be as complex as necessary.

More examples are available in the tests.
