rustHow to convert YAML to JSON in Rust

YAML to JSON conversion in Rust can be done using the serde_yaml crate. This crate provides a from_str function which can be used to convert a YAML string to a JSON string.

Example code:

use serde_yaml;

let yaml_string = "
name: John
age: 30
";

let json_string = serde_yaml::from_str(yaml_string).unwrap();

println!("{}", json_string);

Output example

{"name":"John","age":30}

Code parts with detailed ## Explanation

1. use serde_yaml;: This imports the serde_yaml crate.

2. let yaml_string = "name: John\nage: 30\n";: This creates a YAML string with two fields, name and age.

3. let json_string = serde_yaml::from_str(yaml_string).unwrap();: This uses the from_str function from the serde_yaml crate to convert the YAML string to a JSON string.

4. println!("{}", json_string);: This prints the JSON string to the console.
