Convert XML to YAML, then check the structure and value types.
The XML to YAML Converter turns XML documents into indented YAML. Use the output as a starting point when reviewing data or moving settings between formats.
XML uses tags and attributes; YAML uses keys, lists, and indentation. Review the output to see how attributes, repeated elements, and mixed text are represented. Changing the format does not guarantee a lossless round trip or a configuration that another application can load unchanged.
Given this XML:
<server>
<host>localhost</host>
<port>8080</port>
</server>
The corresponding YAML is:
server:
host: localhost
port: 8080
The nested tags become indented keys. Keep the hierarchy in mind when editing the result.
Check indentation and values that resemble numbers, booleans, or dates. Quote a value if the destination parser needs an exact string. Configuration tools also have their own schemas, so validate the converted data against the tool that will read it.
For the other direction, use the YAML to XML Converter. For tabular output, try the XML to CSV Converter.
