SYNOPSIS

json_pp [-v] [-f from_format] [-t to_format] [-json_opt options_to_json1[,options_to_json2[,...]]]

-json_opt

options to JSON::PP

Acceptable options are:

allow_singlequote allow_barekey allow_bignum loose escape_slash

Multiple options must be separated by commas:

Right: -json_opt pretty,canonical

Wrong: -json_opt pretty -json_opt canonical

-v

Verbose option, but currently no action in fact.

-V

Prints version and exits.
