Overview

From time to time I have to look at JSON formated configuration files. Doing this hurts my eyes! To make my life slighlty easier I can convert them to the YAML layout instead.

What is in here?

json2pretty Takes a hard to read optimized one line of JSON and makes it pretty.
json2yaml Takes a JSON file and outputs it to STDOUT in YAML format
yaml2json Takes a YAML file and outputs it to STDOUT in JSON format
yaml2json-ugly Takes a YAML file and outputs it to STDOUT in that hard to read but optimized crap

But there is no diffjson!

You are correct! I need to write the damn thing still.

My Goal

Take two JSON files and compare them to see what there differences are. If you were to diff the example files you would find see they are different. Different internal layout but they contain the same information. (I just copied different blocks around).

I want to diff either the JSON or the YAML and find the section or sections that have changed or have been added.

Why

Opscode chef-server stores data bags in json format.
You can edit a chef-server data bags file in a local editor. The import that with the knife command into the chef-server. You have a physical file.
You can edit the chef-server data bags directlry with knife in you favorite editor. When you save the tempory file it is imported into the chef-server.
What if Admin Bob edits the chef-server data bag directly with knife and Admin Jill edits the same data bag locally and pushes it to the server.
I need to be learning Ruby. (Python, C, C++, Perl, JavaScript, etc...)
