SYNOPSIS
jsonlint [-v][-s|-S][-f|-F][-ecodec]inputfile.json...DESCRIPTION
This manual page documents briefly the jsonlint commands.
OPTIONS
The return status will be 0 if the file is legal JSON, or non-zero otherwise. Use -v to see the warning details.
Options are: -v, -s, -S, -f, -F, -e
- -v, --verbose
- Show details of lint checking
- -s, --strict
- Be strict in what is considered legal JSON (the default)
- -S, --nonstrict
- Be loose in what is considered legal JSON
- -f, --format
- Reformat the JSON (if legal) to stdout
- -F, --format-compactly
- Reformat the JSON simlar to -f, but do so compactly by removing all unnecessary whitespace
- -e codec, --encoding=codec
- --input-encoding=codec --output-encoding=codec
-
Set the input and output character encoding codec (e.g.,
ascii, utf8, utf-16). The -e will set both the input and
output encodings to the same thing. If not supplied, the
input encoding is guessed according to the JSON
specification. The output encoding defaults to UTF-8, and is
used when reformatting (via the -f or -F options).
When reformatting, all members of objects (associative arrays) are always output in lexigraphical sort order. The default output codec is UTF-8, unless the -e option is provided. Any Unicode characters will be output as literal characters if the encoding permits, otherwise they will be -escaped. You can use "-e ascii" to force all Unicode characters to be escaped.
