🖊️JSON Editor

Editing your JSON files using just commands

You're looking for an ed-like JSON editing experience which allows you to view and edit the JSON file. This is the right place! The edit command infers the file type whether it's the text file, the JSON file, or the binary file. It contains many editing tools described in the below section by invoking these commands.

Some commands may also be found outside the JSON shell, such as the following:

• jsonbeautify: Beautifies the minified JSON file

• jsonminify: Minifies the beautified JSON file

• jsondiff: Gets a difference between two JSON files

JSON Difference

The JSON difference finding tool can be accessed using the FindDifferences() function found in the JsonTools class. This allows you to find differences in addition and deletion of any JSON object. The difference tool returns the difference in the following format:

• A JSON object with either a plus (+), an asterisk (*), or a minus (-) sign if the target object is an object.

• A JSON object with either a plus (+) or a minus (-) sign listing differences in addition and deletion of array elements if the target object is an array.

• A JSON object with a plus (+) sign indicating the target object and a minus (-) sign indicating the source object.
