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.
