Project description

json4tree

Makes any JSON compatible with D3's hierarchy or tree chart formats.

Installation

Since this tool is exclusively Python3, you'll need pip3 to install:

pip3 install json4tree

You can also download and install the package directly from PyPi.

Usage

If your Python3 library is included in your path, try running json4tree directly from the command line:

# if you have your Python3 scripts added to your path, use this one:
json4tree input.json output.json

# otherwise, use this one:
python3 -m json4tree input.json output.json

If you need to import it as a module in your Python3 script, do it like so:

# import the necessary modules
import json
import json4tree

# import your JSON data
infile = open("input.json", "r")
json_file = json.load(infile)
infile.close()

# create a new handler
converter = json4tree.handler(json_file)

# You can either print your results...
converter.results

# Or you can save your results
outfile = open("output.json", "w")
outfile.write(converter.results)
outfile.close()

Examples

Here is an example input file from Merriam-Webster's Dictionary API and the resulting output file.
