Mline: Basic YAML Linter for VS Code

Mline is a VS Code extension that provides basic linting for YAML files. It checks for syntax errors and ensures the presence of required keys.

Features

• Syntax Error Detection: Highlights syntax errors during YAML parsing. • Required Key Validation: Verifies that the keys present_model, pipeline, and stages are present in your YAML file. • Real-time Linting: Provides immediate feedback as you type.

Installation

1. Open VS Code.
2. Go to the Extensions view (Ctrl+Shift+X).
3. Search for "Mline" and click "Install".

Usage

Mline automatically validates any open YAML files. Errors will be displayed as underlines in the editor. The extension currently checks for:

• YAML Syntax Errors: Incorrect YAML formatting will be highlighted. • Missing Required Keys: The keys present_model, pipeline, and stages are required at the top level of the YAML. If any are missing, an error will be reported.

Limitations

• This extension currently performs only basic validation. It does not perform comprehensive schema validation beyond checking for required keys. More sophisticated checks (data type validation, etc.) are not yet implemented. • Error reporting might not be perfectly accurate in all cases, especially with complex YAML structures.
