A module which renders or displays a JSON object in proper indentation (or beautified form) in an Angular application.

Build

Run ng build dl-json-viewer to build the project. The build artifacts will be stored in the projects/dl-json-viewer/dist/ directory.

Installation

NPM

npm i dl-json-viewer-angular

Usage

Import

Add DLJSONViewerModule to your application's or module's imports. For example to import the module to your application, app.module.ts should have the following:

import { DLJsonViewerModule } from 'dl-json-viewer';
@NgModule({
  declarations: [
    AppComponent
  ],
  imports: [
    BrowserModule,
    DLJsonViewerModule
  ],
  providers: [],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})

Use

Add the lib-dl-json-viewer directive/element to your component with the appropriate inputs to render the object.

<lib-dl-json-viewer [obj]="jsonObj" [tab-space]="4" [config]="config"></lib-dl-json-viewer>

The above code snippet will show the object jsonObj (in the current component's members) with an indentation of 4 spaces.

            "open": "[",
            "close": "]"
        },
        "object": {
            "separator": ",",
            "open": "{",
            "close": "}",
            "keyValueSeparator": ":"
        }
    }
};

The default values for the configuration is the DefaultConfig object which can be found in the default.config.ts file.

Demo

This application is a demonstration of the use of the component. The app component contains the jsonObj field which is passed as input to json of the component. This object is bound (two-way) to the text-area input in the view, so when there is text input in the text-area and the View button is clicked then the viewJSON method in the app component is called which updates the input of the JSON viewer component and the object is then rendered in the view. To run the application use the Angular CLI command:

ng serve
