JSON::Whitespace(3) User Contributed Perl Documentation JSON::Whitespace(3) NAME JSON::Whitespace - Alter the insignificant whitespace of JSON SYNOPSIS use JSON::Whitespace ':all'; my $in = <" }, "baka":[ "" ], "fruit":{ "grape":"" }, "moons":{ "":0 } } EOF my $minify = json_minify ($in); print $minify; This outputs {"animals":{"kingkong":""},"baka":[""],"fruit":{"grape":""},"moons":{"":0}} VERSION This documents version 0.62 of JSON::Whitespace corresponding to git commit d04630086f6c92fea720cba4568faa0cbbdde5a6 released on Sat Jul 16 08:23:13 2022 +0900. DESCRIPTION This module offers functions to manipulate the "insignificant whitespace" part of a JSON string (the whitespace which is not inside strings). According to the JSON specification "insignificant whitespace" consists of space (%x20), horizontal tab (%x09), line feed or new line (%x0A) and carriage return (%x0D). FUNCTIONS json_indent my $indented = json_indent ($json); Add indentation to $json. json_minify my $minified = json_minify ($json); Remove all whitespace, including trailing newlines, from $json. SEE ALSO Documentation about JSON is in JSON::Parse. JSON::Whitespace is based on JSON::Tokenize, which breaks JSON into tokens without putting it into Perl structures.
