we started with a small yaml config which “organically” started growing to hundreds of lines - now we have issues with indentations
don’t do YAML! (also don’t misuse YAML as a suppliment for the lack of proper configs in the database 😭)
programming in YAML is also bad... doing config scripts in Ansible was rather painful.
Yup Ansible is a bit of a mess. Just picking stuff apart for Kafka Connect and it’s dreadful.
i've never had to use YAML for anything serious; what is the problem with it? Is it insane sensitivity to tab spacing?
I'd like to refer to Tommy Hall's talk from Krakow for this. If you are using a DSL want to be able to drop down in to a proper programming language and not try and hack a language in to the DSL.
have you got a link?
g "tommy hall" yaml krakow
does not find me much
thanks
I was thinking of a different talk sadly, on graph and dsl layers. https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=1&v=jjVp4QudLaw&feature=emb_logo
Tommy's talks tend to be interesting. The one he gave in Berlin a few years ago was also very good.
oh is he wearing a Crux Tshirt
quite the collection
