Taking a Crash Course in YAML In this section, you’re going to learn the basic facts about YAML, including its uses, syntax, and some of its unique and powerful features. If you’ve worked with YAML before, then you can skip ahead and continue reading from the next section, which covers using YAML in Python.

A great thing about ROS2 params, is that you can modify them at any time. And there is a simple way to notify your node when a param is modified.
ros_yaml/rclpyparamstutorialg_60.txt
Use the ` get_parameter(name) ` method to get the value for one declared parameter. In fact, this method won’t return the value, it will return a Parameter object. The value is stored in the “value” attribute of the Parameter, as you can see when we print the params with the rclpy logger.

Most loaders are smart about deserializing scalars into auxiliary types, which are more specific than a basic string, list, or dictionary:

Line 6 defines a variable to hold the last token instance. Only the scalar and tag tokens contain a value, so you must remember their context somewhere to choose the right color later. The initial value accounts for when the document contains only a scalar without any context. Line 7 loops over the scanned tokens. Line...

Local installation of Python 3.x A text editor The PyYAML Library The PyYAML library is widely used for working with YAML in Python. It comes with a yaml module that you can use to read, write, and modify contents of a YAML file, serialize YAML data, and convert YAML to other data formats like JSON.

Note: Property names in YAML are pretty flexible, as they can contain whitespace characters and span multiple lines. What’s more, you’re not limited to using only strings. Unlike JSON, but similar to Python dictionaries, a YAML hash allows you to use almost any data type for a key!
