As we know, we can print formatted JSON string with the following JavaScript code:

console.log(JSON.stringify(object, null, 4)); // indent 4 spaces

In Python, we can do the same thing with ffprint, which is a built-in module of Python.

Talk is cheap, show me the code 😜

import yaml
from pprint import pprint

with open('../config.yml') as stream:
    try:
        pprint(yaml.safe_load(stream))
    except yaml.YAMLError as ex:
        print(ex)
