#23530: yaml data files need PyYAML installed -------------------------------+-------------------- Reporter: aks | Owner: nobody Type: Bug | Status: new Component: Documentation | Version: 1.7 Severity: Normal | Keywords: Triage Stage: Unreviewed | Has patch: 0 Easy pickings: 0 | UI/UX: 0 -------------------------------+-------------------- In the documentation at [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.7/howto /initial-data/ Providing Initial Data], the format of a yaml file is described, but not that the PyYAML module needs to be also installed in order for the `manage.py loaddata` invocation to work. Apparently, it is not installed by default with django.
Just before the paragraph starting `Loading data is easy ..`, the following should be added: To make use of yaml files, the PyYAML module should be installed with `pip install PyYAML`, after which, loading data is easy. -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/23530> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
