Run yamllint on the YAML files of the repository.
NOTE: This workflow is focused on linting. Formatting checks for YAML are provided by the "Check Prettier Formatting" workflow, so both should be used.
This is the version of the workflow for projects using the Task task runner tool.
Install the check-yaml-task.yml GitHub Actions workflow to .github/workflows/

The code style defined in this file is the official standardized style to be used in all Arduino tooling projects and should not be modified.
The yamllint
tool dependency is managed by Poetry.
Install Poetry by following these instructions:
https://python-poetry.org/docs/#installation
If your project does not already use Poetry, you can initialize the pyproject.toml
file using these commands:
poetry init --python="^3.9" --dev-dependency="yamllint@^1.37.0"
poetry install
If already using Poetry, add the tool using this command:
poetry add --dev "yamllint@^1.37.0"
Commit the resulting pyproject.toml
and poetry.lock
files.
If the repository contains generated or vendored files, they can be excluded from the check by adding them to the ignore
field in the .yamllint.yml
configuration file.
