jinja_yaml2xml

Converts YAML to XML using Jinja 2

Made for use with saltstack formula for clickhouse

Usage

All parameters in YAML will be converted to XML as is. Except "xmlattributes" and "value", which used in a special way. For example:

compression:
  xmlattributes:
    incl: clickhouse_compression
    replace: replace
  case:
    min_part_size: 10000000000
    min_part_size_ratio: 0.01
    method: zstd
interserver_http_port:
  xmlattributes:
    incl: http
  value: 9009

Will be expanded to

<compression incl="clickhouse_compression" replace="replace">
    <case>
        <min_part_size>10000000000</min_part_size>
        <min_part_size_ratio>0.01</min_part_size_ratio>
        <method>zstd</method>
    </case>
</compression>
<interserver_http_port incl="http">9009</interserver_http_port>

But without xmlattributes

sample:
  value: click

<sample>
    <value>click</value>
</sample>

Lists can be a bit ugly:

   <zookeeper>
       <node index="1">
           <host>zk1.example.com</host>
           <port>2181</port>
       </node>
       <node index="2">
           <host>zk2.example.com</host>
           <port>2181</port>
       </node>
       <node index="3">
           <host>zk3.example.com</host>
       </node>
       <node index="4">
           <host>zk4.example.com</host>
           <port>2181</port>
       </node>
     </zookeeper>

zookeeper:
  node:
    - xmlattributes:
        index: 1
      host: zk1.example.com
      port: 2181
    - xmlattributes:
        index: 2
      host: zk2.example.com
      port: 2181
    - xmlattributes:
        index: 3
      host: zk3.example.com
    - xmlattributes:
        index: 4
      host: zk4.example.com
      port: 2181
