NAME

json-glib-format - JSON Formatting Tool

SYNOPSIS

json-glib-format [OPTIONS...] <FILE> [<FILE>...]

DESCRIPTION

json-glib-format offers a simple command line interface to format JSON data. It reads a list or URIs, applies the spacified formatting rules on the JSON data, and outputs the formatted JSON to the standard output or to a file.

The resources to operate on are specified by the FILE argument.

OPTIONS

-h, --help

Print a help message and exit.


--output=FILE

Redirects the output to FILE instead of using the standard output.


-p, --prettify

Prettifies the output, by adding spaces and indentation. This argument is useful to improve the readability of JSON data, at the expense of its size.


--indent-spaces=SPACES

Changes the number of spaces using to indent the JSON data from the default of 2. This argument is only considered if --prettify is used.
