Grunt JSON Pretty

npm version

Clean up the formatting of your JSON files.

Getting Started

If you haven't used grunt before, be sure to check out the Getting Started guide, as it explains how to create a gruntfile as well as install and use grunt plugins. Once you're familiar with that process, install this plugin with this command:

npm install grunt-json-pretty --save-dev

Once the plugin has been installed, it may be enabled inside your Gruntfile with this line of JavaScript:

grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-json-pretty');

Tip: the load-grunt-tasks module makes it easier to load multiple grunt tasks.

Documentation

See the Gruntfile in this repo for a full example.

Example config

grunt.initConfig({
  'json-pretty': {
      options: {
        files: 'content/',
        indent: 4,
        minify:true,

        cleanup:true
      },
   }
});
 
grunt.loadNpmTasks('grunt-json-pretty');
grunt.registerTask('default', ['json-pretty']);
