Just in case you didn't know: With https://github.com/mikefarah/yq https://github.com/mikefarah/yq you can just immediately translate YAMLs like yq some.yaml

  A reimplementation of jq in golang supports reading yaml and, of course, emits json: https://github.com/itchyny/gojq#:~:text=supports%20reading%20from%20YAML https://github.com/itchyny/gojq#:~:text=supports%20reading%2... That one is likely more relevant than yq since folks in the json ecosystem are far more likely to be familiar with jq's syntax and thus using gojq is "one stop shopping," not to mention that its error handling is light-years beyond jqlang's copy

    Yes, but I LOVE yq's ability to update YAML files without stripping existing comments. For example, I use it to programmatically update similar (but not identical) GitHub Actions files across projects.
