# jsontools
Handy command line tools for dealing with json data.
To use it, add `jsontools` to the plugins array in your zshrc file:
```zsh
plugins=(... jsontools)
```
## Usage
Usage is simple... just take your json data and pipe it into the appropriate jsontool:
- `pp_json`: pretty prints json.
- `is_json`: returns true if valid json; false otherwise.
- `urlencode_json`: returns a url encoded string for the given json.
- `urldecode_json`: returns decoded json for the given url encoded string.
### Examples
- **pp_json**:
```sh
# curl json data and pretty print the results
curl https://coderwall.com/bobwilliams.json | pp_json
```
- **is_json**:
```sh
# pretty print the contents of an existing json file
less data.json | is_json
```
- **urlencode_json**:
```sh
# json data directly from the command line
echo '{"b":2, "a":1}' | urlencode_json
```
- **urldecode_json**:
```sh
# url encoded string to decode
echo '%7B%22b%22:2,%20%22a%22:1%7D%0A' | urldecode_json
```
