Example on reading direct YAML contents

const { readYamlContents} = require("yaml-to-json-converter");


const yamlContents = 
`app:
  name: MyApp
  version: 1.0.0
  environment: production
  database:
    host: localhost
    port: 5432
    name: myapp_db
    credentials:
      username: user123
      password: pass123
`;
//reading through contents 
const jsonData2 = readYamlContents(yamlContents);

console.log(
    "\n Direct Content Reading example app-> environment ",
    jsonData2.app.environment
  );

console.log(
    "\n Direct Content Reading example app-> database -> credentials -> username :",
    jsonData2.app.database.credentials.username
  );

console.log(
    "\n Direct Content Reading example app-> database -> credentials -> password :",
    jsonData2.app.database.credentials.password
  );

  console.log(
    "\n 2nd Example Showing app -> name :",
    jsonData2.app.name
  );
