I Built an npm Package to Scrape and Slim Down YAML Files

I Built a Library That Scrapes and Slims Down YAML Files I created an npm module that strips YAML files down to size. It can delete specific elements or replace them with empty values. Published here: npm / yaml-scraper GitHub / yaml-scraper The word "scraper" means something like "to scrape off." It even has a Travis CI badge! What Can It Do? Given a YAML file like this: sample : hoge : I want to delete this fuga : I want to empty this hogehoge : hoge : I want to delete this too fuga : I want to empty this too hogera : Leave this as-is piyopiyo : piyo : I want to delete the parent of this The library can: Delete elements whose key is hoge Keep elements whose key is fuga , but replace the value with an empty string Delete the parent element of the element whose key is piyo The resulting output is: sample : fuga : ' ' hogehoge : fuga : ' ' hogera : Leave this as-is Unnecessary elements are stripped away, making the YAML file much lighter. It works at any nesting depth! Why I Built It I
