YAML parser and dumper with support for annotated values and secrets
This library provides functionality to parse and serialize YAML documents that
make use of annotations, allowing for additional metadata or semantics to be
associated with YAML values. It also includes mechanisms for recognizing and
managing secret values within the YAML content, enabling sensitive information
to be marked and optionally handled differently from regular data. Common
scenarios include handling configuration files that may include Wi-Fi
passwords or API keys, where annotated fields indicate which values are
considered secrets. This allows for more secure management and representation
of confidential information in YAML files, while still supporting the full
capabilities of YAML syntax. The library focuses on reading, interpreting, and
writing such annotated YAML files, and ensures that secret information can be
consistently identified throughout the data structure.
