A JSON manipulation command-line tool based on System.Text.Json.
At the very beginning, I needed some decent JSON tool to create a lot of large valid JSON objects to test my SystemTextJson.JsonDiffPatch library.
It soon got me into a mess when I started learning DTLs required by random object generating libraries or websites.
I'm very suprised I can barely find a JSON manipulation command line tool written in .NET, compared to how many are there written in JavaScript. So, this brought me into this idea in a nutshell, a JSON CLI based on native .NET technology.
My initial plan:
- I want to create JSON objects like
jodoes - I want to run my diff and patch library via command-line
- I want to filter JSON object using a path
Ideally the commands should run as a dotnet command:
dotnet json output
dotnet json diff
dotnet json patch
dotnet json select
If you feel like this is a useful tool and have some ideas, please let me know by submitting a general issue.
