The callback yaml is deprecated.

The recommended replacement is ANSIBLE_CALLBACK_RESULT_FORMAT=yaml

Thanks for your Ansible docs contribution! We talk about Ansible documentation on Matrix at #docs:ansible.im if you ever want to join us and chat about the docs! We meet on Matrix every Tuesday. See the Ansible calendar for meeting details. We welcome additions to our weekly agenda items too. You can add the dawgs-meeting tag to a forum topic to bring it up at the next meeting.

Hi @vbotka and thanks for the PR! Can you tell me where you found this was deprecated? The deprecation should be noted in https://docs.ansible.com/ansible/devel/reference_appendices/config.html#envvar-ANSIBLE_STDOUT_CALLBACK but isn't there.

[vbotka]

Sure. Quoting from community.general.yaml callback:

DEPRECATED
Removed in: version 13.0.0
Why: Starting in ansible-core 2.13, the ansible.builtin.default callback has support for printing output in YAML format.
Alternative: Use result_format=yaml.

For details, please look at forum.ansible.com community.general.yaml has been deprecated

The DEPRECATION WARNING comes from the callback community.general.yaml. ANSIBLE_STDOUT_CALLBACK is not to blame.

JFYI, the fix ANSIBLE_CALLBACK_RESULT_FORMAT is an option of ansible.builtin.default callback.
