Trellis Error Troubleshooting

Hey friends - I’m not sure if I am supposed to write advice on here but I just discovered a WONDERFUL tool: http://www.yamllint.com/

Since yaml files are so finnicky about whitespace, I have run into many errors trying to run trellis commands from the command line such as:

yaml: line 9: mapping values are not allowed in this context

yaml: line 12: did not find expected key

Needless to say this has been an annoyance for me since the error does not specify the file name and I had just edited a couple of files in group_vars.

So next time you run into a trellis error: STAY CALM & USE THE YAML LINTER :kissing_heart:

Turns out I was missing just one space in the wordpress_sites.yml file …

Hopefully this can help someone today or in the future.

Cheers
