nac-yaml

A Python library with common YAML utility functions supporting Network as Code.

Usage

Load and merge YAML files

from pathlib import Path
from nac_yaml.yaml import load_yaml_files

# Default is ruamel's round-trip loader (preserves formatting internally).
data = load_yaml_files([
    Path("path/to/file1.yaml"),
    Path("path/to/file2.yaml"),
])

# Use the safe loader to get native dict/list containers.
data_safe = load_yaml_files([
    Path("path/to/file1.yaml"),
    Path("path/to/file2.yaml"),
], typ="safe")

Note: when typ is not round-trip (e.g. "safe"), formatting features (quotes/comments/style) are not preserved.
