首先，让我开始说使用yaml.Node从有效yaml编组时不会产生有效的yaml，如以下示例所示。可能应该提出问题。

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "log"

    "gopkg.in/yaml.v3"
)

var (
    sourceYaml = `version: 1
type: verbose
kind : bfr

# my list of applications
applications:

#  First app
  - name: app1
    kind: nodejs
    path: app1
    exec:
      platforms: k8s
      builder: test
`
)

func main() {
    t := yaml.Node{}

    err := yaml.Unmarshal([]byte(sourceYaml), &t)
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatalf("error: %v", err)
    }

    b, err := yaml.Marshal(&t)
    if err != nil {
        log.Fatal(err)
    }
    fmt.Println(string(b))
}

在go版本go1.12.3 windows / amd64中产生以下无效的Yaml

version: 1
type: verbose
kind: bfr


# my list of applications
applications:
-   #  First app
name: app1
    kind: nodejs
    path: app1
    exec:
        platforms: k8s
        builder: test

其次，使用诸如

type VTS struct {
    Version string       `yaml:"version" json:"version"`
    Types   string       `yaml:"type" json:"type"`
    Kind    string       `yaml:"kind,omitempty" json:"kind,omitempty"`
    Apps    yaml.Node `yaml:"applications,omitempty" json:"applications,omitempty"`
}

从ubuntu的博客和源文档中可以看出，它可以正确识别结构中的节点（分别是节点）并分别构建该树，但事实并非如此。取消编组时，它将提供正确的节点树，但是当重新编组时，它将产生以下yaml，其中包含yaml.Node公开的所有字段。可悲的是我们不能走这条路，必须找到另一条路。

version: "1"
type: verbose
kind: bfr
applications:
    kind: 2
    style: 0
    tag: '!!seq'
    value: ""
    anchor: ""
    alias: null
    content:
    -   #  First app
name: app1
        kind: nodejs
        path: app1
        exec:
            platforms: k8s
            builder: test
    headcomment: ""
    linecomment: ""
    footcomment: ""
    line: 9
    column: 3

现在，我们可以忽略结构中yaml.Nodes的第一个问题和程序错误（位于gopkg.in/yaml.v3
v3.0.0-20190409140830-cdc409dda467上），我们可以开始操作程序包公开的Nodes。不幸的是，没有可以轻松添加节点的抽象，因此用途可能会有所不同，并且标识节点可能会很麻烦。反思可能会对您有所帮助，因此我将其作为练习留给您。

您会发现注释spew.Dump以一种不错的格式转储了整个节点Tree，这有助于在将Node添加到源树时进行调试。

当然，您也可以删除节点，只需要确定需要删除的特定节点即可。您只需确保删除父节点（如果它们是图或序列）即可。

    "encoding/json"
    "fmt"
    "log"
