# catj
Displays JSON files in a flat format.
Input:
``` json
{
"mappings": {
"templates": [
{
"fields": {
"mapping": {
"norms": false,
"type": "text",
"fields": {
"keyword": {
"ignore_above": 256,
"type": "keyword"
}
}
}
}
}
]
}
}
```
Output:
``` bash
.mappings.templates[0].fields.mapping.norms = false
.mappings.templates[0].fields.mapping.type = "text"
.mappings.templates[0].fields.mapping.fields.keyword.ignore_above = 256
.mappings.templates[0].fields.mapping.fields.keyword.type = "keyword"
```
## Why?
- It makes it easier to understand the structure of JSON files.
- The output is valid JavaScript which can be used directly in code.
- It's very helpful when writing queries for tools like [jq](https://stedolan.github.io/jq/manual/).
## Install
``` bash
npm install -g catj
```
## Usage
``` bash
catj [file]
```
If no file is specified, catj reads from the standard input.
