Found a good utility called «yq», which aims to be the jq for yaml. You can easily convert json (say from a REST i/f) to yaml, and it is a dependency free single binary. Sweet! 🥳 Works really well in scripts in combination with jq or curl.

For example, this is how you would convert a json file to yaml:

1

yq r -P path/to/my.json

Yq read and pretty print. It just works.
