API

JSONFormatter(json [, open [, config] ])

json (Object) - required

The JSON object you want to render. It has to be an object or array. Do NOT pass raw JSON string.

open (Number)

Default: 1 This number indicates up to how many levels the rendered tree should expand. Set it to 0 to make the whole tree collapsed or set it to Infinity to expand the tree deeply

config (Object)

Default:

{
  hoverPreviewEnabled: false,
  hoverPreviewArrayCount: 100,
  hoverPreviewFieldCount: 5,
  theme: '',
  animateOpen: true,
  animateClose: true
}

Available configurations:

Hover Preview
  • hoverPreviewEnabled: enable preview on hover.
  • hoverPreviewArrayCount: number of array items to show in preview Any array larger than this number will be shown as Array[XXX] where XXX is length of the array.
  • hoverPreviewFieldCount: number of object properties to show for object preview. Any object with more properties that thin number will be truncated.
Theme
  • theme: a string that can be any of these options: ['dark']. Look at src/style.less for making new themes.
Animation
  • animateOpen: enable animation when expanding json object. True by default.
  • animateClose: enable animation when closing json object. True by default.

openAtDepth([depth])

const formatter = new Formatter({ ... });
document.body.appendChild(formatter.render());
