ym

The yaml-merge CLI allows you to merge multiple YAML files into a single file.

Functionality

The yaml-merge CLI reads one or more YAML files and merges them into a single YAML file. The merged YAML file contains all the key-value pairs from the input files. If there are any conflicts between the keys, the value from the last input file takes precedence.

Example

To merge two YAML files (file1.yaml and file2.yaml) and save the result to a new file (merged.yaml), run:

ym -i file1.yaml -i file2.yaml -o merged.yaml

This command reads the input YAML files (file1.yaml and file2.yaml), merges them into a single YAML file, and saves the result to a new file (merged.yaml).

If you want to merge three or more YAML files, simply add more -i options to the command:

ym -i file1.yaml -i file2.yaml -i file3.yaml -o merged.yaml

This command reads the input YAML files (file1.yaml, file2.yaml, and file3.yaml), merges them into a single YAML file, and saves the result to a new file (merged.yaml).
