# python-yaml
YAML parser and emitter for python:
* a complete YAML 1.1 parser. In particular, Python-YAML 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.
* both pure-Python and fast LibYAML-based parsers and emitters.
* relatively sensible error messages.
