All those "online JSON formatters" are not the mainstream, they are paying
Google to come to the top of the search.

Open source languages like PHP have JSON formatting built in.

Learn to use the open source resources on your IBM i.

Out of curiosity why and how are you planning present JSON to an end users

Using a 5250 app, web app ?

There appear to be JSON prettifiers for Python and probably Node, PHP, etc.

You could probably download the JSON and run it through one of those
processes if you really want your end users to view raw prettified JSON
files.

Better yet, pull the JSON into a DB structure if you really want to show
it from an app.

Hard to provide much guidance without knowing the full intent.

subject: iSeries based JSON "Pretty" formatter?

I want to present a JSON payload to the user in an easy-to-read format.
Output like JSONFormatter.org. Linking to a web site is a non-starter so
I'm searching for something iSeries based.

I have Scott's YAJL software installed and am using it with Data-Into.
However, I don't see an example in his thorough documentation to take any
JSON and pretty up the formatting for human viewing. There's a CLE pgm in
his YAJLLIB72 called JSON_Refmt but I can't figure it out.

Most RPGLE JSON open source I see is designed to create or disassemble
JSON - not display it.

Any suggestions?

TIA
Jack
