Formats & syntax highlights JSON viewed inside of the web browser! Yay
PLEASE NOTE: this codebase is currently unmaintained, and is unrelated to the JSONView extension available in the Chrome store – that said, many people seem to be using it to great success, and pull requests or a new maintainer are always welcome.
A Chrome port of Ben Hollis’ JSONView extension for Firefox: http://jsonview.com
You too can enjoy JSON as it was intended:
Chrome doesn’t currently support exposing mimetypes to extensions:
In lieu we’re only matching URIs containing “.json” — rather than running regexes on every pageload.
If you don’t mind the performance impact and want to try and parse everything, this is a simple change in manifest.json
bq.
“matches”: [ “http:///.json*”, “file:////.json*” ]
=>
“matches”: [ “http:///”, “file:////” ]
