linter-js-cloudformation-yaml v2.3.1

linter-js-cloudformation-yaml

This is a fork of the linter-js-yaml package. It will parse your YAML as well as the newly released CloudFormation YAML files in Atom with cloudformation-js-yaml-schema through js-yaml, exposing any issues reported.

Great care has been put into making sure the schema can be updated separately from the linter, since it is changed frequently by AWS. The schema includes the correct YAML type through trial and error since it is not documented by AWS. New tags will be added to the schema, and this package will update in turn. Please feel free to open a PR on cloudformation-js-yaml-schema to gain support if I don't get to it before you do.

Example

The following template will produce an error:
