For example,

yaml = require`tinyyaml`
doc = [[
t: !!omap
  a: 1
  b: 2
  c: 3
  d: 4
]]

t = yaml.parse(doc).t

for k, v in pairs(t) do
    print(k, v)
end

does not guarantee order. Is there a different iteration function I can use?

The omap should be array type:

# Explicitly typed ordered map (dictionary).
Bestiary: !!omap
  - aardvark: African pig-like ant eater. Ugly.
  - anteater: South-American ant eater. Two species.
  - anaconda: South-American constrictor snake. Scaly.

See https://yaml.org/type/omap.html
