Take the following steps to translate the first recipe in this chapter to YAML:

1. Add a file called data/demo.yml to your manifest, in the demo section:

    'demo': [ 
        'data/demo.yml', 
    ], 

2. Add content to this file:

- 
    !record {id: author_af, model: res.partner} 
        name: Alexandre Fayolle 
- 
    !record {id: author_dr, model: res.partner} 
        name: Daniel Reis 
- 
    !record {id: author_hb, model: res.partner} 
        name: Holger Brunn 
- 
    !record {id: book_cookbook, model: library.book} 
        name: Odoo cookbook 
        short_name: cookbook 
        date_release: 2016-03-01 
        author_ids: [(6, 0, [ref('author_af'), ref('author_dr'), 
                             ref('author_hb')])] 
        publisher_id: res_partner_packt 

3. Add a file called data/res_partner.yml to your manifest, in the data section:

    'data': [ 
        'data/res_partner.yml', 
    ], 

4. Add content to this file:

- 
    !record {id: res_partner_packt, model: res.partner} 
        name: Packt publishing 
        city: Birmingham 
        country_id: base.uk 

We did the same as in the first recipe, but in YAML syntax. Note that YAML files need the .yml extension to be recognized correctly.
