YAML Types for JavaScript

JSON →
library 0.4.0 ·javascript
verified Jun 17, 2026

yaml-types is a utility library that provides a collection of JavaScript types as custom YAML tags for the `yaml` parser/stringifier library. It extends YAML's capabilities by allowing serialization and deserialization of common JavaScript primitives and objects like `RegExp`, `BigInt`, `Symbol`, `Error`, `Function`, and `Class`, as well as YAML 1.1 specific tags such as `!!binary`, `!!omap`, `!!pairs`, `!!set`, and `!!timestamp`. The current stable version is 0.4.0. The package has a relatively slow release cadence, with major features being added incrementally rather than on a strict schedule. Its key differentiator is providing pre-built tag definitions that are compatible with the `eemeli/yaml` library, simplifying the process of handling complex JavaScript types in YAML documents compared to manually defining custom tags for each type.
