How do you actually parse values in YAML in Java? [duplicate]

This question already has answers here: Parse a YAML file (4 answers) Closed 5 years ago.

I have a YAML file that I'm using as sort of a config file. It ooks like this,

tests:
    - category: some_category
      test:
          - name: hello
            key1: value1
            key2: value2

          - name: hithere
            key1: value1
            key2: value2

I want to do something like this:

for all tests as test:
  print test.name + test.key1

I have looked at JYaml and SnakeYaml but all they seem to do is map from YAML to Java objects. Is YAML not the right job for this? Is there a simple way to achieve this? all I need is to iterate through and get the values of each, kind of开发者_StackOverflow like a DOM traversal.

Well I figured it out. I am using YamlBeans, which provides methods for this: https://github.com/EsotericSoftware/yamlbeans
