feature

• 1.jt.treeify(jsonObj1)   or    $ jts ./path/1.json (cmd line)   convert a jsonObj to a tree-like string to print out

  

  $ jts -d or $ j-tree-str -d convert a file directory to tree string, and some diy in github-issues by diy-theme

   

• 2.convert directory to json obj and tree-structure-string

• 3.jtls show directories like cmd ls, but in a tree string like

• 4.Simple none dependencies, except use cli (need copy-paste, yargs)

• 5.Cross platform nix(linx,mac-Osx) and windows, support for multiple browsers(IE9+)

• 6.jt.travelJson(jsonObj,cb)   Safe recursive walk of a jsonObj,even though obj is circular!

• 7.jt.getValByKeyPath(jsonObj,'x.y.z.1.2') <=> jsonObj.x.y.z[1][2]

• 8.jt.checkCircular(obj) check the obj,and return some useful info

installation

$ npm install json-toy -g
$ jtls

Or if you haven't use the npm,you can do like this ,add json-treeify.min.js or json-treeify.min.js-on-cdn-resource just 3.6kb

<script src="https://unpkg.com/json-toy/dist/json-treeify.min.js"></script>
<script>
    let treeify = window.jsonTreeify;
    let testData = {
        a: 1,
        b: {
            c: "hello world"
        }
    };
    console.log(treeify(testData));
    //...
</script> 

The core file has no dependencies,and just 3.6kb size;

Usage

Feature1. json treeify

convert a json to tree string,you can set options like space(hoz and vert),need output val,root name,max depth in convert directory.

and there is two ways to use:

1. use jt.treeify(jsonObj,options) to convert json to tree-string

2. use cmd line $ jts (or j-tree-str) your/json/file.json (Recommend)

A tree string convert from string which typed in cmd line

$ jts '{a:1,b:{d:2},e:3,}'
$ jtls

  ROOT
   │
   ├─ a: 1
   │
   ├─ b
   │   │
   │   └─ d: 2
   │
   └─ e: 3

A tree string convert from my package.json

$ jts ./package.json

or

$ j-tree-str ./package.json

  ./
   ├─ .gitignore
   ├─ .npmignore
   ├─ .travis.yml
   ├─ bin /
   │  └─ j-tree-str.js
   ├─ coverage /
   │  ├─ coverage.json
   │  ├─ lcov-report /
   │  │  ├─ base.css

   ...

   └─ webpack.config.js

jsonToy.treeify(jsonObj)，support multiple primitive type

Feature2. get property 's value by key-path

let jt = require("json-toy");
let jsonObj = {
    "x":{
      "y":{
        "z":"hello,world!"
        },
       "w":[ 0,1,2,["a","b","c"] ]
     }
   };
console.log(jt.getValByKeyPath(jsonObj,"x.y.z"));// "hello,world!"
console.log(jt.getValByKeyPath(jsonObj,"x.w.3.1"));// "b"

If property name include '.' like 'a.b.c'

{
  "a.b.c": 1
}

You can get it by a trans char set

• ←→ .

jt.getValByKeyPath(jsonObj,"a•b•c");// ←→ jsonObj["a.b.c"]

and & ←→ &

{
  "•": 1,
  "&": 2,
  "&": 3
}

jt.getValByKeyPath(jsonObj,"•");// ←→ jsonObj["•"]
jt.getValByKeyPath(jsonObj,"&");// ←→ jsonObj["&"]
jt.getValByKeyPath(jsonObj,"&");// ←→ jsonObj["&"]

Feature3. travelJson (recursion)

A safe travel method to recursive walk of a obj,even though a circular obj.

function doTravel(key, value, {keyPath, type, isSpreadable, depth}){
    //let parentPropObj = this;
    console.log(`keyPath = '${keyPath}'\
      ,\nkey = '${key}'\
      ,\ntype = ${type}\
      ,\nisSpreadable = ${isSpreadable}\
      ,\ndepth = ${depth}\
      ,\nvalue = ${(JSON.stringify(value,null,2)||String(value))}`);
}
let keyPathsArr = jt.travelJson(jsonObj,doTravel,"jsonObj");

Feature4. check the circular obj

let json = {
    "a":{
        "b":{
            "c":1
        }
    },
    "d":{
        "e":{
            "f":2
        }
    }
};
json.d.e.g = json.d.e;
json.d.e.h = json;
let res = jt.checkCircular(json);
// console.log(res);

you can get some useful information from res:

{
  "isCircular": true,
  "circularProps": [
    {
      "keyPath": "ROOT.d.e.g",
      "circularTo": "ROOT.d.e",
      "key": "g",
      "value": "[Circular->ROOT.d.e]"
    },
    {
      "keyPath": "ROOT.d.e.h",
      "circularTo": "ROOT",
      "key": "h",
      "value": "[Circular->ROOT]"
    }
  ]
}

Feature5(only node supports!). convert a directory to json obj

// use just only in node
let travelDir = require('json-toy/lib/cli/walk-dir');
let dirJson = travelDir("./",{
    exclude: {
        file: /(Thumbs\.db|\.DS_store)/g,
        directory: /(\.git|\.svn|\.idea|node_modules|bower_components)/g,
        outExcludeDir: true // need output exclude directory
    }
});
console.log(JSON.stringify(dirJson,null,2));

{
  "css": {
    "reset.css": "file"
  },
  "img": {
    "btn.png": "file"
  },
  "js": {
    "lib": {
      "lib.js": "file"
    },
    "main.js": "file"
  },
  "node_modules": {},// options.exclude.outExcludeDir == true
  "package.json": "file",
  "test.js": "file"
}

question

• $ jts xx.json : the distance in command-print-out:

  

  don't worry ,'d1' is equal to 'd2' actually, The reason why u've saw difference is that the char ' ' width is shorter than other chars in command prompt

• copy-paste-feature,json-toy used system shell command line to exec copy,so you may get some string pre space char '' was removed by sys. if you paste in a *.js file.like this

    1.json
      │
      ├─ w
      │   │
      │   └─ x
      │       │
      │       └─ y: 1
      │
      └─ w2
      │
      └─ xxx: 1

  eh...You'd better paste in a text file like *.md or *.txt or others ext

    1.json
      │   
      ├─ w
      │   │   
      │   └─ x
      │       │   
      │       └─ y: 1
      │           
      └─ w2
          │   
          └─ xxx: 1
