Pyyaml ​​3.11 skip dictionary for iterator?

Question

I use the following YAML data:

Document:
 InPath: /home/me
 OutPath: /home/me
 XLOutFile: TestFile1.xlsx

Sheets: 
  - Sheet: Test123
    InFile: Test123.MQSC
    Server: Testsystem1
  - Sheet: Test345
    InFile: Test345.MQSC
    Server: Testsystem2

Title:
    A: "Server Name"
    B: "MQ Version"
    C: "Broker Version"

Fields:
    A: ServerName
    B: MQVersion
    C: BrokerVersion

and the following code:

import yaml

class cfgReader():
    def __init__(self):
        self.stream = ""
        self.ymldata = ""
        self.ymlkey = ""
        self.ymld = ""

    def read(self,infilename):
        self.stream = self.stream = file(infilename, 'r') #Read the yamlfile
        self.ymldata = yaml.load(self.stream)    #Instanciate yaml object and parse the input "stream".

    def docu(self):
        print self.ymldata
        print self.ymldata['Sheets']
        for self.ymlkey in self.ymldata['Document']: #passes String to iterator
            print self.ymlkey
        for sheets in self.ymldata['Sheets']:  #passes Dictionary to iterator
            print sheets['Sheet']
        for title in self.ymldata['Title']:
            print title
        for fields in self.ymldata['Fields']:
            print fields

Output print:

{'Fields': {'A': 'ServerName', 'C': 'BrokerVersion', 'B': 'MQVersion'}, 'Document': {'XLOutFile': 'TestFile1.xlsx', 'InPath': '/home/me', 'OutPath': '/home/me'}, 'Sheets': [{'Sheet': 'Test123', 'InFile': 'Test123.MQSC', 'Server': 'Testsystem1'}, {'Sheet': 'Test345', 'InFile': 'Test345.MQSC', 'Server': 'Testsystem2'}], 'Title': {'A': 'Server Name', 'C': 'Broker Version', 'B': 'MQ Version'}}
[{'Sheet': 'Test123', 'InFile': 'Test123.MQSC', 'Server': 'Testsystem1'}, {'Sheet': 'Test345', 'InFile': 'Test345.MQSC', 'Server': 'Testsystem2'}]
X
I
O
Test123
Test345
A
C
B
A
C
B

I could not learn how to control the way the data is passed to the iterator. I want to pass it as dictionaries so that I can access the value with a key. This works for Tables, but I don’t understand why. The documentation was not clearly stated: http://pyyaml.org/wiki/PyYAMLDocumentation

There self.ymldata['Sheets']is a list of dictionaries in your code , because your YAML source for this is:

  - Sheet: Test123
    InFile: Test123.MQSC
    Server: Testsystem1
  - Sheet: Test345
    InFile: Test345.MQSC
    Server: Testsystem2

- ( Sheets YAML).

- ( ), Python dict. dict, , key.

import ruamel.yaml as yaml

class CfgReader():
    def __init__(self):
        self.stream = ""
        self.ymldata = ""
        self.ymlkey = ""
        self.ymld = ""

    def read(self, infilename):
        self.stream = open(infilename, 'r') # Read the yamlfile
        self.ymldata = yaml.load(self.stream)    # Instanciate yaml object and parse the input "stream".

    def docu(self):
        for k in self.ymldata:
            v = self.ymldata[k]
            if isinstance(v, list):
                for elem in v:
                    print(elem)
            else:
                print(v)

cfg_reader = CfgReader()
cfg_reader.read('in.yaml')
cfg_reader.docu()
