wavemon VS yamllint

wavemon is a Linux wireless-network monitoring tool for watching signal and noise levels, packet statistics, device configuration and network parameters. The ncurses-based application is designed to work with all devices supported by the Linux kernel. Appreciation for the suggestion goes to sliddis.

Yeah, I'd be interested in seeing just what something like wavemon says about the signal strength.

yamllint, as the name suggests, is a linter for YAML files. It checks syntax validity, as well as looking for more-complex errors like key repetition and cosmetic problems such as line length, trailing spaces, indentation etc. This one was indly recommended by yankdevil.

StrictYAML removes features that might be useful for some usecases, such as Node anchors+Refs and Flow Style.

I don't think the cost of an additional standard is worth it in this case.

While YAML has issues, they aren't much of problem if you use a linter, such as yamllint [1].

On top of the above-mentioned tools, it's also a good idea to use YAML linter such this one or its CLI equivalent, which will validate and cleanup your documents.

yamlfixer automates the fixing of problems reported by yamllint by parsing its output.

If you wanted a linter.

Or, run Yamllint externally. I do this, because I have more control: https://github.com/adrienverge/yamllint

You can catch this with yamllint (https://github.com/adrienverge/yamllint):

    % cat countries.yml
