=head1 NAME

json_xs - JSON::XS commandline utility

=head1 SYNOPSIS

json_xs [-v] [-f inputformat] [-t outputformat]

=head1 DESCRIPTION

F<json_xs> converts between some input and output formats (one of them is
JSON).

The default input format is C<json> and the default output format is
C<json-pretty>.

=head1 OPTIONS

=over 4

=item -v

Be slightly more verbose.

=item -f fromformat

Read a file in the given format from STDIN.

C<fromformat> can be one of:

=over 4

=item json - a json text encoded, either utf-8, utf16-be/le, utf32-be/le

=item cbor - CBOR (RFC 7049, L<CBOR::XS>), a kind of binary JSON

=item storable - a L<Storable> frozen value

=item storable-file - a L<Storable> file (Storable has two incompatible formats)

=item bencode - use L<Convert::Bencode>, if available (used by torrent files, among others)

=item clzf - L<Compress::LZF> format (requires that module to be installed)

=item eval - evaluate the given code as (non-utf-8) Perl, basically the reverse of "-t dump"

=item yaml - L<YAML> (avoid at all costs, requires the YAML module :)

=item string - do not attempt to decode the file data

=item none - nothing is read, creates an C<undef> scalar - mainly useful with C<-e>

=back

=item -t toformat

Write the file in the given format to STDOUT.

C<toformat> can be one of:

=over 4

=item json, json-utf-8 - json, utf-8 encoded

=item json-pretty - as above, but pretty-printed

=item json-utf-16le, json-utf-16be - little endian/big endian utf-16

=item json-utf-32le, json-utf-32be - little endian/big endian utf-32

=item cbor - CBOR (RFC 7049, L<CBOR::XS>), a kind of binary JSON

=item storable - a L<Storable> frozen value in network format

=item storable-file - a L<Storable> file in network format (Storable has two incompatible formats)

=item bencode - use L<Convert::Bencode>, if available (used by torrent files, among others)

=item clzf - L<Compress::LZF> format

=item yaml - L<YAML>

=item dump - L<Data::Dump>

=item dumper - L<Data::Dumper>

=item string - writes the data out as if it were a string

=item none - nothing gets written, mainly useful together with C<-e>

Note that Data::Dumper doesn't handle self-referential data structures
correctly - use "dump" instead.

=back

=item -e code

Evaluate perl code after reading the data and before writing it out again
- can be used to filter, create or extract data. The data that has been
written is in C<$_>, and whatever is in there is written out afterwards.

=back

=head1 EXAMPLES

json_xs -t none <isitreally.json

"JSON Lint" - tries to parse the file F<isitreally.json> as JSON - if it
is valid JSON, the command outputs nothing, otherwise it will print an
error message and exit with non-zero exit status.

<src.json json_xs >pretty.json

Prettify the JSON file F<src.json> to F<dst.json>.

json_xs -f storable-file <file

Read the serialised Storable file F<file> and print a human-readable JSON
version of it to STDOUT.

json_xs -f storable-file -t yaml <file

Same as above, but write YAML instead (not using JSON at all :)

json_xs -f none -e '$_ = [1, 2, 3]'

Dump the perl array as UTF-8 encoded JSON text.

<torrentfile json_xs -f bencode -e '$_ = join "\n", map @$_, @{$_->{"announce-list"}}' -t string

Print the tracker list inside a torrent file.

lwp-request http://cpantesters.perl.org/show/JSON-XS.json | json_xs

Fetch the cpan-testers result summary C<JSON::XS> and pretty-print it.
