YAML 和 JSON 有什么区别

Technically YAML is a superset of JSON. This means that, in theory at least, a YAML parser can understand JSON, but not necessarily the other way around.

See the official specs, in the section entitled "YAML: Relation to JSON".

总的来说，我喜欢YAML中的某些东西，但在JSON中是不可用的.

• As @jdupont pointed out, YAML is visually easier to look at. In fact the YAML homepage is itself valid YAML, yet it is easy for a human to read.
• YAML能够使用"锚定"引用YAML文件中的其他项因此，它可以像在MySQL数据库中一样处理关系信息.
• YAML is more robust about embedding other serialization formats such as JSON or XML within a YAML file.

In practice neither of these last two points will likely matter for things that you or I do, but in the long term, I think YAML will be a more robust and viable data serialization format.

Right now, AJAX and other web technologies tend to use JSON. YAML is currently being used more for offline data processes. For example, it is included by default in the C-based OpenCV computer vision package, whereas JSON is not.

您将找到用于JSON和YAML的C库.YAML的库往往比较新，但我过go 没有遇到过任何问题.请参见示例Yaml-cpp.
