class method

Psych.unsafe_load_file

unsafe_load_file(filename, **kwargs)

Load the document contained in filename. Returns the yaml contained in filename as a Ruby object, or if the file is empty, it returns the specified fallback return value, which defaults to false.

NOTE: This method *should not* be used to parse untrusted documents, such as YAML documents that are supplied via user input. Instead, please use the safe_load_file method.
