jsonfui is an interactive command-line JSON viewer. Examples
Download latest release from GitHub (does not require node.js).
Or, install via npm (requires node.js):
npm install -g jsonfui
To start jsonfui, pass a filename to it:
jsonfui /path/to/file.json
You can also read from stdin instead of a file:
curl -s https://api.github.com/users/adrianschneider/repos | jsonfui
You can also write to stdout with Enter:
# list repos, pick one, view on github
curl -s https://api.github.com/users/adrianschneider/repos | jsonfui | xargs open
When the application is open, you are in a vim-style tree viewer.
down, j: down
up, k: up
left, h: go back/up one level
right, l: view child node
<Enter>: send current selection to stdout and exit
y or c: copy current value to clipboard

/: search for string recursively
*: search for value under cursor
n: next search result at current depth
N: prev search result at current depth
<space>: clear highlight
