The magic of JSON on-line tools
Found some great tools of JSONCompare, JSON Editor, JSON Studio and JSON Viewer. Here is a note to future self, in case I’d have to use them in any project.
- JSONCompare:
- One file or doc: beautify, minify, sort, save (for sharing) and lint
- Two files or docs: compare
- JSON Editor Online:
- Edit JSON files in fully WYSIWYG mode with a lot of useful tools
- Whole JSON or selected part can be edited as: plain text, tree or table
- Save JSON data to cloud (1 MB limit) or to file, send as URL, export to CSV where possible
- For 3 USD per month you get add-free and for 6 USD per month you can save private JSONs to the cloud
- JSON Studio:
- Is slow and has some bugs, but also has some fabulous features
- Can minify and format (beautify) JSON with one click (Others button)
- Tracks history of your edits which can save your ass in some situations
- Can render JSON as a graphic tree (click Zoom+ or Zoom- if nothing seems rendered)
- Can render JSON as an expandable table / grid (for nested objects has a bug and shows only first column)
- Can generate a class diagram of DB structure (with relations!) to store your JSON in database
- Can convert between JSON, YAML and CSV both ways (nested objects can’t be exported to CSV)
- Also can compare two JSONs and look for possible differencies
- JSON Viewer can only validate correctness of a JSON and beautify it
Well… that would all folks! :)
