jshon

Command line tool to parse, read and create JSON

Description

Jshon is a command line utility to parse, read and create JSON. It is designed to be as usable as possible from within the shell and replaces fragile adhoc parsers made from grep/sed/awk as well as heavyweight one-line parsers made from Perl/Python. Jshon loads json text from stdin, performs actions, then displays the last action on stdout.

Json parsing features include:

Return data types of values

Report data type lengths

Sort JSON data by keys

In-place editing of JSON files

Format or "beautify" JSON (as changing indentation, etc)

Create JSON from an empty object

Extraction of keys and values
