Format, minify, and validate JSON — with errors pinpointed in your editor instead of a vague message.

Features

  • Format JSON — pretty-print with your configured indent.
  • Minify JSON — collapse to a single compact line.
  • Format and Sort Keys — pretty-print with every object's keys sorted recursively, for clean diffs.
  • Validate JSON — confirm validity, or jump straight to the first syntax error.

When JSON is invalid, Jsonova translates the parser's character offset into a real line and column, moves your cursor there, and scrolls it into view — so you find the problem instantly.

Operations apply to your selection if you have one, otherwise to the whole document.

Settings

  • jsonova.indent — spaces per indent level when formatting (default 2). Set to 0 to indent with a tab.

Usage

  1. Open or select some JSON.
  2. Open the Command Palette (Ctrl+Shift+P / Cmd+Shift+P).
  3. Run a Jsonova: command.
