Interesting! Could you share more on why would you use this app for large JSON/YAML files but not other specific tools like jq/yq?
I'm interesting to know because I built this app with the thought that it would eliminate the time you paste the strings to online websites (to validate/format/convert it), and usually people don't paste gigabyte strings file... So maybe this is something from your workflow that I don't know?
Thanks!
- tenken 6y agoNot OP in question. I threw a 20k student campus of json class registration data ... Hundreds of Megs at CyberChef to pretty print and it choked. I sometimes use jq/ya ... The sqlite json extension (written in C) .... It's great when "input size" never matters in ones' tools and the tools can run in any environment (sqlite is Everywhere)...
- trungdq88 6y agoThanks for sharing, I'll look into this. It seems like a good thing to add given that the users are developers.
- bradknowles 6y agoSometimes I use jq, if it’s a simple enough operation, like I just want to pretty-print the JSON structure. But jq is obtuse and arcane, and if I want to do anything more than just “ | jq -S .” then it is of no use to me. In particular, it is of no use to validate a multi-gigabyte JSON structure that has an error in it ... somewhere. So, alternative JSON parsing/validation programs are most welcome.
