About:
Yamale is a lightweight YAML schema and validator designed to ensure YAML files adhere to defined structural rules. It allows developers to define schemas using YAML syntax, making validation intuitive and integrated into configuration workflows. The tool helps prevent errors in configuration files, API payloads, and data pipelines by enforcing data types and required fields.
Key Features:
  • YAML-based schema definition
  • Command-line interface for validation
  • Python API for programmatic integration
  • Strict validation mode
Use Cases:
  • Validating configuration files for applications
  • Ensuring data integrity in CI/CD pipelines
  • Schema enforcement for YAML-based data exchange
Alternatives:
  • jsonschema – JSON Schema validator, more verbose for YAML and requires JSON Schema syntax.
  • pykwalify – Similar YAML validation tool, but Yamale is often cited for its simpler YAML-based schema syntax.
