df2yaml

CRAN_RELEASE CODE_SIZE devel_version

The goal of df2yaml is to simplify the process of converting dataframe to YAML. The dataframe with multiple key columns and one value column (this column can also contain key-value pair(s)) will be converted to multi-level hierarchy.

Installation

df2yaml is an R package distributed as part of the CRAN. To install the package, start R and enter:

# install via CRAN
install.package("df2yaml")
# install via Github
# install.package("remotes")   #In case you have not installed it.
remotes::install_github("showteeth/df2yaml")

In general, it is recommended to install from Github repository (update more timely).
