treedoc-cli v0.0.4

treedoc-cli

An interactive CLI tool to explore a treedoc such as JSON, XML. This is a complemental tool to TreeDocViewer GUI. With a CLI tool, it's possible to view very large JSON files which are not possible to be viewed in a GUI tool during to the overhead of UI memory usage. And CLI tool also provides much more powerful scripting capability for auto processing treedoc data.

Background

In my daily job, I often encounter large JSON files 100M files, which is very difficult to be viewed in any GUI JSON viewer. Either crashes the app or very slow to open it. So this tools is try to solve this issue. Without a GUI, it's much more efficient to load large JSON file. The tools mimic a file system a TreeDoc, so that, it allow user to navigation between different nodes using cd command. and show child nodes with ls command which provide pagination, filtering, sorting, aggregation capability. This is a work in progress project. More functions will be added from this basic idea.
