Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Readme

Angular 2 Pretty Json v3.0.0

A module for Angular 2 debug output of objects. Contains a pipe similar to JsonPipe but adds support for spacing and handling of circular structures.
Also contains a component that outputs any object with syntax highlight.
Warning: just as the JsonPipe, this is an impure pipe and should be used only for debugging purposes.

Breaking change in 3.0.0 The UMD bundle has moved to a "bundle" subdirectory. SymstemJS users should update their system.config. Should not affect AngularCLI and other webpack projects.

Install

npm install angular2-prettyjson

ES2015 / UMD

Two versions are available: ES2015 modules and UMD. If you are using a project based on the AngularCLI, everything should work from a simple npm install.
If you are using the Angular Quickstart template (or other SystemJS based compilation), please point to the bundle angular2-prettyjson.umd.min.js file e.g. systemjs.config.js:

    map: {
      ...
      // other libraries
      'rxjs':                      'npm:rxjs',
      'angular2-prettyjson': 'npm:angular2-prettyjson'
    },
    packages: {
      ...,
      'angular2-prettyjson': {
        defaultExtension: 'js',
        main: './bundles/angular2-prettyjson.umd.min.js'
      }

Usage

Import PrettyJsonModule to have access to following component and pipes

import {PrettyJsonModule} from 'angular2-prettyjson';

@NgModule({
    declarations: [
        AppComponent,
    ],
    imports: [
        PrettyJsonModule,
    ],
    providers: [
    ],
    bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule {
}

Safe Pipe

The SafeJsonPipe aims to override the JsonPipe and so uses the same name "json". It also accepts an optional argument spaces=2 for the JSON stringify spacing.

@Component({
  ....
  template: `
    <pre>
    {{ circularObj | json }}
    {{ circularObj | json:4 }}
    </pre>
  ` // make sure to use a surrounding element with white-space: pre; for best results
  })
  ...

outputs

2 spaces (default):

2 spaces

4 spaces:

4 spaces

Overriding JsonPipe throughout the app

If you want the Safe Pipe to be used throughout the app:

import {PrettyJsonModule, SafeJsonPipe} from 'angular2-prettyjson';
import {JsonPipe} from '@angular/common';

@NgModule({
    declarations: [
        AppComponent,
    ],
    imports: [
        PrettyJsonModule,
    ],
    providers: [
            { provide: JsonPipe, useClass: SafeJsonPipe }
    ],
    bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule {
}

Pretty (and safe) Pipe

The PrettyJsonPipe stringifies the object and then adds spans around properties, null, arrays etc. You can bind it to the innerHtml of other elements.


@Component({
  ....
  template: `
    <pre [innerHtml]="circularObj | prettyjson:3"></pre>
  `
  })
  ...

A good set of styles to use is

   pre span {white-space: normal;}
   .string { color: green; }
   .number { color: darkorange; }
   .boolean { color: blue; }
   .null { color: magenta; }
   .key { color: red; }

If you wish to use the styles property of the parent component, please prefix each class selector with :host /deep/ e.g.


@Component({
 ....
 template: `
   <pre [innerHtml]="circularObj | prettyjson:3"></pre>
 `,
 styles: [`:host /deep/ .string {color:green} ...`]
 })
 ...

See output under component below.

Component

Creates a pre element into which the Pretty Json pipe'd object is dumped as HTML. Takes care of styling.

Takes an input [obj] that can be data bound to any object.

import {PrettyJsonComponent} from 'angular2-prettyjson';

@Component({
  ....
  entryComponents: [PrettyJsonComponent], // Add to entry components
  template: `
    <prettyjson [obj]="theForm.value"></prettyjson>
  `
  })
  export class MyComponent {
    ngOnInit() {
      this.theForm = this.formBuilder.group({
       ...

outputs

Pretty json with syntax highlight
