# Jsonify
[](https://github.com/rbas/jsonify/actions/workflows/rust.yml)
Jsonify is a fast and efficient command line tool for formatting and coloring JSON data. It takes JSON input and returns a clear, color-coded structure for easy reading. Ideal for developers and data analysts, jsonify is both blazingly fast and memory efficient.
### Formatting example
### Handing error example
## Usage
By redirecting your output into `jsonify` you will get formatted and colored JSON structure
```
cat test.json | jsonify
```
You can combine `jsonify` with `curl` and read beautiful JSON structures in your command line
```
curl -s -X GET https://dummyjson.com/products/1 | jsonify
```
## Installation
To be able to run `jsofify` you will need to do following steps
1) Get `jsonify` binary file
2) Add the file or its link into your shell `$PATH`. _This step depeds on your shell_
3) Make sure that `jsonify` is executable (`chmod +x`)
### Get pre-built binary files
Download the pre-built binary file to your computer. You can find it in the section [releases](https://github.com/rbas/jsonify/releases) on GitHub.
Currently, binaries are pre-built for Mac architectures Mx silicons (`aarch64-apple-darwin`) and Intel (`x86_64-apple-darwin`)
### Complie from source
If you want to compile `jsonify` from the source you will need [installed Rust](https://www.rust-lang.org/tools/install) and then clone this repository.
Once you will be done, go to the repository root and run following command
```
cargo build --release
```
Rust will compile `jsonify` from the source code. Generate executable binary file will be at location `target/release/jsonify`.
