## json-html

Generates a DOM node with a human representation of the JSON/EDN encoded data. Based on the [json.human.js](http://marianoguerra.github.io/json.human.js/) library.

## Installation

The library provides support for Clojure/Script.

#### Leiningen

[![Clojars Project](http://clojars.org/json-html/latest-version.svg)](http://clojars.org/json-html)

## Usage

```clojure
(use 'json-html.core)

(edn->html {:foo [1 2 3] :bar "baz"})
```


barbazfoo011223

```clojure
(json->html "{\"foo\": [1, 2, 3], \"bar\": \"baz\"}")
```


barbazfoo011223

The ClojureScript version has additional functions called `edn->hiccup` and `json->hiccup`, these can be used to generate Hiccup forms for use with other libraries such as [Reagent](http://holmsand.github.io/reagent/).

A default CSS is provided in `resources/json.human.css` and can be included as follows:

```clojure
(ns foo
(:use json-html.core hiccup.page))

(spit "formatted.html"
(html5
[:head [:style (-> "json.human.css" clojure.java.io/resource slurp)]]
(edn->html [:foo "bar" :baz [1 2 3]])))
```

### Custom data types and render functions

To render data types that are not covered but the library (i.e. `cljs.core/UUID`) or redefine how already
covered data types are rendered, extend the `json-html.core/IRenderHTML` protocol for your type. For example,
to render `UUID`s in the same way you would render its backing string, add this snippet in your code:

```clj
(extend-protocol json-html.core/Render
cljs.core/UUID
(render [u]
[:span.jh-type-string (str u)]))
```

## Example:
