Daniel Himmelstein added the comment: @bob.ippolito thanks for pointing to jq as a reference implementation. I updated the pull request (https://git.io/vS9o8) to implement all of the relevant options. Currently, the PR supports the following mutually exclusive arguments:
--indent --no-indent --tab --compact These additions took 16 new lines of code in tool.py and 41 new lines of tests. However, I am happy to refactor the tests to be less repetitive if we choose to go forward with these changes. @serhiy.storchaka I took a maximalist approach with respect to adding indentation options to GH #345. Although I know not all of the options may get merged, I thought we might as well work backwards. However, the more I think about it, I do think every option above is a unique and valuable addition. I think that even with the changes, json.tool remains a lightweight wrapper json.load + json.dump. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue29636> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
