yh - YAML Highlighter
A dummy YAML syntax highlighter that brings colours where only jq could.
This project starts with the author's incapacity to give up on the absence of colours while playing with kubernetes cli and YAML output (kubectl get something -o yaml
) as wouldn't happen with JSON and jq.
Unable to find a simple YAML highlighter he could throw some content to, with little to no respect expectation, and full of inspiration from his recent Go training, he decided to write one from scratch.

kubectl get pod alpine -o yaml | yh
