valohai-yaml

What it is and what it does

valohai-yaml is a parser and validator for valohai.yaml files, the configuration format used to define machine learning workloads and pipelines in the Valohai ecosystem. It provides both programmatic and command-line interfaces to validate YAML structure and parse it into Python objects that expose pipeline steps, parameters, and other configuration details.

The package depends on jsonschema, leval, and pyyaml to perform schema validation and YAML parsing. It is actively maintained, supports Python 3.9 through 3.13, and carries no known security vulnerabilities. Use it when you need to validate or programmatically inspect valohai.yaml files as part of a Valohai-integrated ML workflow.

Use it for:

• Validate valohai.yaml files in CI/CD pipelines before submitting workloads to Valohai
• Programmatically inspect pipeline steps and commands from valohai.yaml in custom tooling
• Parse and extract configuration metadata from ML project definitions for automation or reporting
• Integrate valohai.yaml validation into local development workflows via the command-line tool

Quickstart

pip install valohai-yaml

from valohai_yaml import validate, parse

with open('valohai.yaml') as f:
    validate(f)

with open('valohai.yaml') as f:
    config = parse(f)
    print(config.steps['step_name'].command)

Verify before relying

• Whether the package handles all Valohai YAML schema versions or only current versions
• Performance characteristics when parsing large or complex pipeline definitions
