使用Python的PyYAML或YAML::Perl等库最容易进行复杂的解析。

如果您希望将所有YAML值解析为bash值，请尝试此脚本。这也可以处理注释。参见下面的示例用法:

# pparse.py

import yaml
import sys
            
def parse_yaml(yml, name=''):
    if isinstance(yml, list):
        for data in yml:
            parse_yaml(data, name)
    elif isinstance(yml, dict):
        if (len(yml) == 1) and not isinstance(yml[list(yml.keys())[0]], list):
            print(str(name+'_'+list(yml.keys())[0]+'='+str(yml[list(yml.keys())[0]]))[1:])
        else:
            for key in yml:
                parse_yaml(yml[key], name+'_'+key)

            
if __name__=="__main__":
    yml = yaml.safe_load(open(sys.argv[1]))
    parse_yaml(yml)

test.yml

    - output_duration_folder: datasets/outputs/Youtube/durations
    - sampling_rate: 44000 # Make sure sampling rate is same here as in preprocess config

需要YAML值的脚本:

yaml() {
    eval $(python pparse.py "$1")
}

yaml "test.yml"

# What python printed to bash:

folders_temp_folder=datasets/outputs/tmp
folders_keep_temp_folder=False
MFA_MFA=False
MFA_speaker_count=1
MFA_G2P_G2P=True
MFA_G2P_G2P_model=models/MFA/G2P/english_g2p.zip
MFA_G2P_input_folder=datasets/outputs/Youtube/ljspeech/wavs
MFA_G2P_output_dictionary=datasets/outputs/Youtube/ljspeech/dictionary.dict
MFA_dictionary=datasets/outputs/Youtube/ljspeech/dictionary.dict
MFA_acoustic_model=models/MFA/acoustic/english.zip
MFA_temp_folder=datasets/outputs/tmp
MFA_jobs=4
MFA_align_config=configs/MFA/align.yaml
MFA_align_dataset=datasets/outputs/Youtube/ljspeech/wavs
MFA_align_output_folder=datasets/outputs/Youtube/ljspeech-aligned
TTS_output_folder=datasets/outputs/Youtube
TTS_preprocess_preprocess=True
TTS_preprocess_config=configs/TTS_preprocess.yaml
TTS_preprocess_textgrid_folder=datasets/outputs/Youtube/ljspeech-aligned
TTS_preprocess_output_duration_folder=datasets/outputs/Youtube/durations
TTS_preprocess_sampling_rate=44000

使用bash访问变量:

echo "$TTS_preprocess_sampling_rate";
>>> 44000

yq是一个轻量级、可移植的命令行YAML处理器

这个项目的目标是yaml文件的jq或sed。

(https://github.com/mikefarah/yq #自述)

作为示例(直接从文档中窃取)，给出一个示例。Yaml文件:

---
bob:
  item1:
    cats: bananas
  item2:
    cats: apples

then

yq eval '.bob.*.cats' sample.yaml

将输出

- bananas
- apples

另一种选择是将YAML转换为JSON，然后使用jq与JSON表示进行交互，从其中提取信息或编辑信息。

我写了一个简单的bash脚本，包含这个胶水-见Y2J项目在GitHub上

以下是Stefan Farestam回答的扩展版本:

function parse_yaml {
   local prefix=$2
   local s='[[:space:]]*' w='[a-zA-Z0-9_]*' fs=$(echo @|tr @ '\034')
   sed -ne "s|,$s\]$s\$|]|" \
        -e ":1;s|^\($s\)\($w\)$s:$s\[$s\(.*\)$s,$s\(.*\)$s\]|\1\2: [\3]\n\1  - \4|;t1" \
        -e "s|^\($s\)\($w\)$s:$s\[$s\(.*\)$s\]|\1\2:\n\1  - \3|;p" $1 | \
   sed -ne "s|,$s}$s\$|}|" \
        -e ":1;s|^\($s\)-$s{$s\(.*\)$s,$s\($w\)$s:$s\(.*\)$s}|\1- {\2}\n\1  \3: \4|;t1" \
        -e    "s|^\($s\)-$s{$s\(.*\)$s}|\1-\n\1  \2|;p" | \
   sed -ne "s|^\($s\):|\1|" \
        -e "s|^\($s\)-$s[\"']\(.*\)[\"']$s\$|\1$fs$fs\2|p" \
        -e "s|^\($s\)-$s\(.*\)$s\$|\1$fs$fs\2|p" \
        -e "s|^\($s\)\($w\)$s:$s[\"']\(.*\)[\"']$s\$|\1$fs\2$fs\3|p" \
        -e "s|^\($s\)\($w\)$s:$s\(.*\)$s\$|\1$fs\2$fs\3|p" | \
   awk -F$fs '{
      indent = length($1)/2;
      vname[indent] = $2;
      for (i in vname) {if (i > indent) {delete vname[i]; idx[i]=0}}
      if(length($2)== 0){  vname[indent]= ++idx[indent] };
      if (length($3) > 0) {
         vn=""; for (i=0; i<indent; i++) { vn=(vn)(vname[i])("_")}
         printf("%s%s%s=\"%s\"\n", "'$prefix'",vn, vname[indent], $3);
      }
   }'
}

该版本支持字典和列表的-符号和短符号。以下输入:

global:
  input:
    - "main.c"
    - "main.h"
  flags: [ "-O3", "-fpic" ]
  sample_input:
    -  { property1: value, property2: "value2" }
    -  { property1: "value3", property2: 'value 4' }

产生如下输出:

global_input_1="main.c"
global_input_2="main.h"
global_flags_1="-O3"
global_flags_2="-fpic"
global_sample_input_1_property1="value"
global_sample_input_1_property2="value2"
global_sample_input_2_property1="value3"
global_sample_input_2_property2="value 4"

as you can see the - items automatically get numbered in order to obtain different variable names for each item. In bash there are no multidimensional arrays, so this is one way to work around. Multiple levels are supported. To work around the problem with trailing white spaces mentioned by @briceburg one should enclose the values in single or double quotes. However, there are still some limitations: Expansion of the dictionaries and lists can produce wrong results when values contain commas. Also, more complex structures like values spanning multiple lines (like ssh-keys) are not (yet) supported.

A few words about the code: The first sed command expands the short form of dictionaries { key: value, ...} to regular and converts them to more simple yaml style. The second sed call does the same for the short notation of lists and converts [ entry, ... ] to an itemized list with the - notation. The third sed call is the original one that handled normal dictionaries, now with the addition to handle lists with - and indentations. The awk part introduces an index for each indentation level and increases it when the variable name is empty (i.e. when processing a list). The current value of the counters are used instead of the empty vname. When going up one level, the counters are zeroed.

编辑:我已经为此创建了一个github存储库。

很难说，因为这取决于您希望解析器从YAML文档中提取什么。对于简单的情况，你可以使用grep、cut、awk等。对于更复杂的解析，您需要使用成熟的解析库，如Python的PyYAML或YAML::Perl。

如果您知道您感兴趣的标记和您期望的yaml结构，那么在Bash中编写一个简单的yaml解析器并不难。

在下面的示例中，解析器将一个结构化YAML文件读入环境变量、数组和关联数组。

注意:这个解析器的复杂性与YAML文件的结构有关。对于YAML文件的每个结构化组件，都需要一个单独的子例程。高度结构化的YAML文件可能需要更复杂的方法，例如通用的递归下降解析器。

圣诞节。yaml文件:

# Xmas YAML example
---
 # Values
 pear-tree: partridge
 turtle-doves: 2.718
 french-hens: 3

 # Array
 calling-birds:
   - huey
   - dewey
   - louie
   - fred

 # Structure
 xmas-fifth-day:
   calling-birds: four
   french-hens: 3
   golden-rings: 5
   partridges:
     count: 1
     location: "a pear tree"
   turtle-doves: two

解析器使用mapfile将文件作为数组读入内存，然后循环遍历每个标记并创建环境变量。

梨树、斑鸠和法国母鸡:最终成为简单的环境变量 呼叫鸟:变成一个数组 xmas-fifth-day:结构被表示为一个关联数组，但是如果您没有使用Bash 4.0或更高版本，您可以将这些数组编码为环境变量。 注释和空白将被忽略。
