What is the best YAML parser in elisp?


I want to read config in YAML with elisp code. Searched but didn't find ready-to-use parser in elisp. Did I miss something useful?


Solution

  • Three years later, we have dynamic modules, and emacs-libyaml looks pretty interesting. It uses the dynamic module system to expose the C bindings of libyaml in Elisp. I would expect the performance to be fantastic, although I haven't tested it.
