Day #7 Pro Tip #Javascript

“Pretty Print” your JSON output. Helpful while debugging on terminal.

Prettify your ugly JSON

var obj = {
name: 'geekabyte',
url: 'www.geekabyte.tech',
courses: {
web: ['react', 'redux', 'ES6'],
android: ['app development']
}
}

NORMAL PRINTING:

JSON.stringify(obj)

"{"name":"geekabyte","url":"www.geekabyte.tech","courses":{"web":["react","redux","ES6"],"android":["app development"]}}"

PRETTY PRINTING:

JSON.stringify(obj, '\t', 4)

Output :

"{
    "name": "geekabyte",
    "url": "www.geekabyte.tech",
    "courses": {
        "web": [
            "react",
            "redux",
            "ES6"
        ],
        "android": [
            "app development"
        ]
    }
}"

Isn’t that cool ?

I find it useful while debugging. Do give a try :)
