It’s built for performance—save games can be ~100 MB of JSON—so parsing and UI tasks run in background threads.\n\n## Download\n\n### Binary\n\nPlease download the [latest](https://git.scarlettbytes.nl/scarlett/json-inspector/-/releases) installer/binary for your os.\n\n- `.msi` for Windows  \n- `.deb` for Ubuntu/Debian\n\n### Python\n\u003e For windows substitute python3 for python. As python3 just leads to their store to download some version of it.\n\n```bash\ngit clone https://git.scarlettbytes.nl/scarlett/json-inspector.git \ncd json-inspector\npip3 install -r requirements.txt\npython3 run.py [/dir/to/file.json[.gz]]\n```\n\n## How to run\n\n### Binary\n\nAfter installing you should be able to run it via the GUI of your OS by searching for json inspector.\nIt will also register (on linux at-least) the `json-inspector` command which also opens the application and takes a path to a file to open with.\n\n### Python\n\n- With a file argument\n\n`python run.py /path/to/file.json[.gz]`\n\n- Without arguments\n\n`python run.py`\n\nOpens a file selector dialog.\n\n## File association\n\nTo integrate with your OS, go to `Settings` \u003e `Settings…` \u003e `Associate JSON files with this app`. This will register .json and not .json.gz files to open automatically in the app.\n\n## Requirements \n\nIt uses little resources except when loading, writing and searching, for hardware the following should be sufficient:\n- 1-2gb dedicated ram (~100mb json file)\n- Quad core processor (to keep it responsive).\n\nThese requirements are only needed if you are running the script directly as python:\n\n**Runtime**  \n- Qt6  \n- orjson (optional; falls back to stdlib json)  \n- gzip support (builtin)\n- psutil\n\n**Build (if running from source)**  \n- Python 3.13+  \n- PyQt6  \n\n## How to build\n\nTo build locally on linux for a `deb` file, you can just use `docker compose up`. \nIt should build inside the container and exit after being build.","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fscarlettsamantha%2Fjson_inspector","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fscarlettsamantha%2Fjson_inspector","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fscarlettsamantha%2Fjson_inspector/lists"}
