JSGUI - A JSON Schema based GUI to create and edit JSON files

JSGUI provides a little tkinter based gui to allow for convenient configuration of json files using a schema file as base.

Features

• Visualises JSON Schemas using
  • checkboxes
  • textfields
  • drop-down menus
  • hover tips / tool tip texts
• Allows modification and saving as a .json file conforming to the underlying schema
• Allows to load an existing .json file into an underlying json schema for easy manipulation
• supports the following JSON Schema keywords:
  • properties
  • type
  • $comment
  • enum
  • patternProperties
  • $ref
  • required
  • default
  • ... work in progress to enable more keywords

Install

pip install jsgui

How to use

Simply start the application to open an empty window. Either drag-and-drop a json schema or use the Load Menu Button. The schema will be loaded with all required fields being active and default values inserted already. Modify as you please and click "Save" to save.

After loading a schema you may also load a valid .json file to have its values inserted accordingly.

Note that drag-and-drop will try to guess whether you dropped a schema or a "data" json file by searching for typical schema keywords in the first level of the object.
