Usage

JSON navigator and interactive filter leveraging jq

Usage: jnv [OPTIONS] [INPUT]

Examples:
- Read from a file:
        jnv data.json

- Read from standard input:
        cat data.json | jnv

Arguments:
  [INPUT]
          Optional path to a JSON file. If not provided or if "-" is specified, reads from standard input

Options:
  -e, --edit-mode <EDIT_MODE>
                  Specifies the edit mode for the interface.
                  Acceptable values are "insert" or "overwrite".
                  - "insert" inserts a new input at the cursor's position.
                  - "overwrite" mode replaces existing characters with new input at the cursor's position.
          [default: insert]

  -i, --indent <INDENT>
                  Affect the formatting of the displayed JSON,
                  making it more readable by adjusting the indentation level.
          [default: 2]

  -n, --no-hint
                  When this option is enabled, it prevents the display of
                  hints that typically guide or offer suggestions to the user.

  -d, --expand-depth <EXPAND_DEPTH>
                  Specifies the initial depth to which JSON nodes are expanded in the visualization.
                  Note: Increasing this depth can significantly slow down the display for large datasets.
          [default: 3]

  -l, --suggestion-list-length <SUGGESTION_LIST_LENGTH>
                  Controls the number of suggestions displayed in the list,
                  aiding users in making selections more efficiently.
          [default: 3]

  -h, --help
          Print help (see a summary with '-h')

  -V, --version
          Print version
