flon - FLat Object Notation

Flattens JSON using the same format as gron. Slower than gron, but doesn't parse the entire structure into memory first, allowing it to process infinite streams. Output retains the original order of elements rather than sorting by path.

Installation

$ npm i -g flon

Or run via npx:

$ npx flon -u https://registry.npmjs.com/flon

$ cat package.json | flon
