json_pp1

Json::pp command utility

Usage

json_pp [-v] [-f from_format] [-t to_format] [-json_opt options_to_json1 [,options_to_json2 [, ...]]]

Overview

json_pp converts between some input and output formats (one of them is JSON). This program was copied from json_xs and modified.

The default input format is json and the default output format is json with pretty option.

Options

-f

    -f from_format

Reads a data in the given format from STDIN.

Format types:

json

as JSON

eval

as Perl code

-t

Writes a data in the given format to STDOUT.

null

no action.

json

as JSON

dumper

as Data::Dumper

-json_opt

options to JSON::PP

Acceptable options are:

    ascii latin1 utf8 pretty indent space_before space_after relaxed canonical allow_nonref
    allow_singlequote allow_barekey allow_bignum loose escape_slash indent_length

Multiple options must be separated by commas:

    Right: -json_opt pretty,canonical
    Wrong: -json_opt pretty -json_opt canonical

-v

Verbose option, but currently no action in fact.

-V

Prints version and exits.

    $ perl -e'print q|{"foo":"あい","bar":1234567890000000000000000}|' |\
       json_pp -f json -t dumper -json_opt pretty,utf8,allow_bignum
    
    $VAR1 = {
              'bar' => bless( {
                                'value' => [
                                             '0000000',
                                             '0000000',

                                           ],

                              }, 'Math::BigInt' ),
              'foo' => "\x{3042}\x{3044}"
            };
    $ perl -e'print q|{"foo":"あい","bar":1234567890000000000000000}|' |\
       json_pp -f json -t dumper -json_opt pretty
    
    $VAR1 = {
              'bar' => '1234567890000000000000000',
              'foo' => "\x{e3}\x{81}\x{82}\x{e3}\x{81}\x{84}"
