seems it doesn't support yaml anchors

[b10s]

err:

$ yaml2json <(cat foo.yml)
UnknownAlias {_anchorName = "consul_shared"}

foo.yml:

...
consul: *consul_shared
...
consul: &consul_shared
...

I do not understand the mean of '*' or '&' in yaml. I never saw them before.
Is there any document or example of this syntax?

@bronze1man yes, sure:

easy one:

official spec (I can not read this spec easy):
https://yaml.org/spec/1.2/spec.html#id2783797

YAML anchors are supported by gopkg.in/yaml.v2.

My own fork of yaml2json supports them: https://github.com/dolmen/yaml2json
