I am trying to unsuccessfully move a couple of complex data structures to config.yml For example, I have the following in my Perl script @models = ( {id => 1, name => "Low carbon", palette => "black_blue", year => 1900}, {id => 2, name => "Low nitrogen", palette => "red_green", year => 1900}, {id => 3, name => "High water", palette => "yellow_red", year => 1900} ); As far as I can tell, I can convert it to YAML like so models: - model_id: 1 name: "Low carbon" palette: "black_blue" start_year: 1900 - model_id: 2 name: "Low nitrogen" palette: "red_green" start_year: 1900 - model_id: 3 name: "High water" palette: "yellow_red" start_year: 1900 and then, in my Dancer code, I should be able to do my @models = config->{models}; or at least my $models = config->{models}; (I am not sure if I should get an array or an arrayref). In any case, I get the following error Error while loading /Users/punkish/Sites/app/app.psgi: YAML Error: Stream does not end with newline character\n Code: YAML_PARSE_ERR_NO_FINAL_NEWLINE\n Needless to say, I do have a final newline, so the error is misleading. What am I doing wrong?
