Oh man. I recently threw together a "j2p" script to make converting between json and python dicts simpler, and combining it with pbcopy/pbpaste will make it so much better:
#!/usr/bin/env python3
import sys
import json
print(json.load(sys.stdin))
- atoav 3y agoOr directly from the commandline: pbcopy | python -c 'import sys; import json; print(json.load(sys.stdin))' | pbpaste
- tomviner 3y agoThe Python json library is callable as a module: pbcopy | python -m json.tool | pbpaste It has a load options: $ python -m json.tool --help usage: python -m json.tool [-h] [--sort-keys] [--no-ensure-ascii] [--json-lines] [--indent INDENT | --tab | --no-indent | --compact] [infile] [outfile] A simple command line interface for json module to validate and pretty-print JSON objects. positional arguments: infile a JSON file to be validated or pretty-printed outfile write the output of infile to outfile options: -h, --help show this help message and exit --sort-keys sort the output of dictionaries alphabetically by key --no-ensure-ascii disable escaping of non-ASCII characters --json-lines parse input using the JSON Lines format. Use with --no-indent or --compact to produce valid JSON Lines output. --indent INDENT separate items with newlines and use this number of spaces for indentation --tab separate items with newlines and use tabs for indentation --no-indent separate items with spaces rather than newlines --compact suppress all whitespace separation (most compact)
