Unable to load run_report.yaml

[hisplan]

import yaml

with open(os.path.join(path_data, "report/run_report.yaml"), "rt") as fin:
  report = yaml.load(fin, Loader=yaml.FullLoader)        

I'm getting this error:

while scanning for the next token
found character '\t' that cannot start any token

I believe YAML shouldn't include tabs as indentation. I'm using YAML 5.3.1.

Hey @hisplan and thank you for your issue.

You are totally right. I will include this in the future release.

Thank you.

Any updates on this issue? Snooped around the dev branch and it looks like it's still custom formatting rather than using pyyaml or another package.

Currently getting around it by doing:

import yaml

with open("path/to/run_report.yaml", "r") as fin:
    content = fin.read().replace("\t", "  ")
    report = yaml.load(content, Loader=yaml.FullLoader)

Should be fixed in the latest version
