nyaml: A Python package that converts NeXus application definitions and base classes from the NXDL XML format to the YAML format and vice versa

Abstract

nyaml is a Python software tool designed for developers and users of the NeXus data exchange format (https://www.nexusformat.org/). The tool converts files that follow the NeXus Definition Language (NXDL) from XML to [YAML](https://yaml.org/), and vice versa. NXDL is used to define experiment instruments, setups, or scientific data objects from experiments in a schema-based structure. Writing NeXus data schemas via the indentation-based formatting of YAML offers a more concise writing and reduces common sources of formatting inconsistencies, while still adhering to NeXus standards. The tool requires users to follow a specific grammar for embedding NeXus data structures to ensure compatibility with NXDL (see the full documentation at https://fairmat-nfdi.github.io/nyaml/). The work is funded by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG, German Research Foundation) - 460197019 (FAIRmat) (https://gepris.dfg.de/gepris/projekt/460197019?language=en).
