[acampove]

Feature Type

• Adding new functionality to pandas

• Changing existing functionality in pandas

• Removing existing functionality in pandas

Problem Description

Hi,

I am nowadays mostly working with YAML and moved away from JSON, given that it has proven far superior in terms of userfriendlines (e.g. readability). However I am missing a quick way to load and dump data from yaml to pandas.

Feature Description

df = pd.from_yaml('/path/to/my/yaml/file.yml')
df.to_yaml('/path/to/my/yaml/file.yml')

Alternative Solutions

I can write my wrapper to do all the dirty work myself for now.

Additional Context

For your reference, I implemented it in my utilities library here but this should be integrated into pandas itself.

Thanks for the suggestion, but this was suggested and rejected in #35421 so I don't think this will change so closing
