nodejs json beautify
To beautify JSON in Node.js, you can use the json-beautify
package. Follow the steps below:
- First, you need to install the
json-beautify
package. Open your terminal and run the following command:
npm install json-beautify
- Once the package is installed, you can require it in your Node.js script:
const beautify = require('json-beautify');
- Next, you need to define your JSON object. Let's say you have a JSON object called
myJson
:
const myJson = {
name: 'John',
age: 30,
city: 'New York'
};
- Now, you can use the
beautify
function to beautify your JSON object:
const beautifiedJson = beautify(myJson, null, 2, 80);
The beautify
function takes four arguments:
- The JSON object you want to beautify (myJson
in this case).
- The replacer function (null in this case). You can use a replacer function to modify the values or omit certain properties from the output.
- The number of spaces to use for indentation (2 in this case).
- The number of characters per line (80 in this case).
- Finally, you can log the beautified JSON to the console:
console.log(beautifiedJson);
That's it! The json-beautify
package will format your JSON object with proper indentation and line breaks, making it more readable.
