Reminder: There was a thread and an issue two years ago:
https://www.mail-archive.com/basex-talk@mailman.uni-konstanz.de/msg12959.html
https://github.com/BaseXdb/basex/issues/1921
Christian rejected it (much effort, few users).

Strong, strong backing from the Western Fankurve (the cheap places under
no roof and without seats) for Eliot's request! BaseX, we all know it,
is a miracle of data integration (once one has discovered the secret of
json:doc(), html:doc(), csv:doc()), and YAML is missing! I believe that
it is far from trivial (although the common use of YAML would be
trivial, but the devil might be in the specified detail), yet it would
be really great if BaseX found a way to fill this gap. OpenAPI is
sometimes supplied only in YAML! Waving my flag! - Hans-Jürgen

Hi Elliot,
I remember having asked info about a possible YAML serialization format
on the Slack Xml.com channel one year ago.
They don't really have a nice opinion about Yaml and no-one looked
really interested in supporting it.
Thus I think there are philosophy matters here :-)

I found myself needing to operate on some YAML documents and tried to
find an XQuery YAML parser and did not find one, at least not one of
sufficient completeness.
It seems like kind of an obvious missing thing in the XQuery world so
just curious if I missed something?
I don’t have time myself to write one—it can’t be that hard but it’s not
that critical of a need for me. I ended up using the Python PyYAML
library, which let me quickly convert YAML to JSON, which then I could
of course process just fine with XQuery.
Thanks,
E.
