Core

There is no actual “core”, bash2json has simple system

bash2json file contains all functions:

• error <message>: self-explanatory, error message
• json_trim <json> <validate?> <don't return?>: trim JSON
• json_pretty <json> <don't return?>: prettify JSON
• json_append <json> <key> <value?> <don't return?>: append JSON
• json_list <json> <don't return?>: list JSON object/array keys
• json_validate <json>: validate JSON
• json_query <json> <raw?> <don't return?>: query JSON
• arr_to_json <array name> <don't return?>: bash array to JSON
• json_to_arr <json> <output array name?> <parent key name?> <don't return?>: JSON to bash array
• bash2json <all arguments>: main CLI which covers arguments parsing, functions execution and output wrapping

Reusing functions

You can reuse any function from bash2json, but:

• You can’t copyright any separate function as own code
• Some functions depend on other functions to properly work

Function dependencies:

• error: none
• json_trim: none
• json_pretty: none
• json_append: json_trim, json_query, error
• json_list: none
• json_validate: error
• json_query: json_list, error
• arr_to_json: json_append
• json_to_arr: json_list
• bash2json: error, json_validate, json_append, json_query, json_to_arr, json_trim, json_pretty, arr_to_json
