json-standard v1.0.2

json-standard

Standard-inspired, CI/CD-friendly json linter and formatter

Checking and formatting JSON is easy with JSON.parse and JSON.stringify. This project helps enforcing consistently formatted JSON in your projects by providing the same api as js linters like eslint or standard.

Usage

• Add to your project as a dev dependency: npm install --save-dev json-standard
• Check your json files: npx json-standard
• Fix your json files: npx json-standard --fix

Selecting Files

You can provide a list of files or glob patterns as arguments to json-standard. If no argument is provided, json-standard runs on **/*.json. Files matching node_modules/** will always be ignored. Some examples:

• npx json-standard package.json
• npx json-standard 'data/**json'

Don't forget to escape glob patterns if you want to pass them to json-standard to stop your console from expanding them into a file list.

CI/CD

Add json linting to your lint step. Your package.json might look like this:

{
  "scripts": {
    "lint:json": "json-standard *json",
    "lint:js": "standard",
    "lint": "lint:js && lint:json"
  }
}

Configuration

You can configure the third argument to JSON.stringify() (the number of spaces or the string used as space) by putting it into your package.json like so:

{
  "json-standard": {
    "space": 2
  }
}

The default value for space is 2. Use the standard.
