Convert text file to yaml in python

I have a text file in the below format:

{'Server Type: ABCDDEER' :['name: abcd01t' ,'IP: 127.12.32.52', 'tags: ALL, APP,EER, REER1']},
{'Server Type: ABCDDEER' :['name: abcd02t' ,'IP: 127.12.32.53', 'tags: ALL, APP,EER, REER2']},
{'Server Type: ABCDDEER' :['name: abcd03t' ,'IP: 127.12.32.54', 'tags: ALL, APP,EER, REER1']},
{'Server Type: ABCDDEER' :['name: abcd04t' ,'IP: 127.12.32.55', 'tags: ALL, APP,EER, REER2']},
{'Server Type: ABCDDPP' :['name: abcd1t' ,'IP: 127.12.32.36', 'tags: ALL, APP,PP,  PP1']},
{'Server Type: ABCDDPP' :['name: abcd2t' ,'IP: 127.12.32.37', 'tags: ALL, APP,PP,  PP2']},
{'Server Type: ABCDDPP' :['name: abcd3t' ,'IP: 127.12.32.38', 'tags: ALL, APP,PP,  PP1']},
{'Server Type: ABCDDPP' :['name: abcd4t' ,'IP: 127.12.32.39', 'tags: ALL, APP,PP,  PP2']},
{'Server Type: ABCDDPP' :['name: abcd5t' ,'IP: 127.12.32.47', 'tags: ALL, APP,PP,  PP1']},
{'Server Type: ABCDDPP' :['name: abcd6t' ,'IP: 127.12.32.41', 'tags: ALL, APP,PP,  PP2']},
{'Server Type: ABCDDPP' :['name: abcd7t' ,'IP: 127.12.32.42', 'tags: ALL, APP,PP,  PP1']},
{'Server Type: ABCDDPP' :['name: abcd8t' ,'IP: 127.12.32.48', 'tags: ALL, APP,PP,  PP2']},
{'Server Type: ABCDDPP' :['name: abcd9t' ,'IP: 127.12.32.44', 'tags: ALL, APP,PP,  PP1']},
{'Server Type: ABCDDPP' :['name: abcd0t' ,'IP: 127.12.32.49', 'tags: ALL, APP,PP,  PP2']}

Is there any way we can directly convert to yaml so that it could be in the below format:

"Server Type: ABCDDEER"
: 
  - "name: abcd01t"
  - "IP: 127.12.32.52"
  - "tags: ALL, APP,EER, REER1"

  - "name: abcd02t"
  - "IP: 127.12.32.53"
  - "tags: ALL, APP,EER, REER2"

  - "name: abcd03t"
  - "IP: 127.12.32.54"
  - "tags: ALL, APP,EER, REER2"

"Server Type: ABCDDPP"
: 
  - "name: abcd1t"
  - "IP: 127.12.32.36"
  - "tags: ALL, APP,PP,  PP1"

etc

So that the serverTyoe is the header and whatever with same serverType comes inside of it.

Any help will be much appreciated. Thanks very much!

Solution

Using yaml module.

Ex:

import ast
import yaml

result = {}
with open("data.txt") as infile:
    for line in infile:
        d = ast.literal_eval(line.strip().rstrip(","))
        for k, v in d.items():
            result.setdefault(k, []).extend(v)     #groupby header

with open("outfile.yaml", 'w') as yfile:
    yaml.dump(result, yfile)
