What is YAML Validator?
Invalid YAML is the #1 CI pipeline failure. A missing colon or wrong indentation can break a Kubernetes deployment or crash a Docker Compose stack. This validator uses js-yaml to parse the document and report errors at the exact line and column, not a vague 'syntax error' message.
How to validate YAML
- 1Paste your YAML (pipeline, manifest, compose file).
- 2The validator analyses the document immediately.
- 3Pass: 'Valid YAML ✓'. Fail: see the exact line and column of the error.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does the validator indent check?
Yes — invalid indentation is the #1 YAML error. Our validator catches inconsistent tabs/spaces and wrong indentation depth at the exact line.
What YAML versions are supported?
YAML 1.2 (the current spec). Most CI configs (GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, CircleCI), Kubernetes manifests, and Docker Compose files are YAML 1.2.
