pyjsonedit 1.0.1

Edit parts of json strings & files while keeping the orginal, inconsistent formating

pyJsonEdit

Edit parts of inconsistently formatted json.

It's just a bit slower that doing this by hand!

matcher

Now you can easly select nodes in json tree

syntax:

selector	action	node type
*	select all items in current node	-
[n]	select n-th item of curent node	array
{n}	select n-th item of curent node	object
key	select node chilld by name	object
"key"	select node chilld by name	object
>	mark current node as seleced	f-
a=b	check if current node has child 'a' with value 'b'	object

example 1:

key > [0]

this pattern will match one element by:

1. selecting "key" element in root node (assuring that is an object)
2. select first element in it (assumintg its an array)

example 2:

name > *

this pattern will match multiple elements by:

1. selecting "name" element in root node (assuring that is an object)
2. select all element in it
