short_description: Convert variable to YAML string
description:
- Converts an Ansible variable into a YAML string representation.
- This filter functions as a wrapper to the L(Python PyYAML library, https://pypi.org/project/PyYAML/)'s C(yaml.dump) function.
- Ansible internally auto-converts YAML strings into variable structures so this plugin is used to force it into a YAML string.
