Install

with npm (recommended):

npm install jsoneditor

Note that to use JSONEditor in Internet Explorer 11, it is necessary to load a polyfill for Promise in your application.

Use

<!DOCTYPE HTML>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <!-- when using the mode "code", it's important to specify charset utf-8 -->
    <meta charset="utf-8">

    <link href="jsoneditor/dist/jsoneditor.min.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">
    <script src="jsoneditor/dist/jsoneditor.min.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
    <div id="jsoneditor" style="width: 400px; height: 400px;"></div>

    <script>
        // create the editor
        const container = document.getElementById("jsoneditor")
        const options = {}
        const editor = new JSONEditor(container, options)

        // set json
        const initialJson = {
            "Array": [1, 2, 3],
            "Boolean": true,
            "Null": null,
            "Number": 123,
            "Object": {"a": "b", "c": "d"},
            "String": "Hello World"
        }
        editor.set(initialJson)

        // get json
        const updatedJson = editor.get()
    </script>
</body>
</html>

Build

The code of the JSON Editor is located in the folder ./src. To build jsoneditor:

Install dependencies:
```
npm install
```
Build JSON Editor:
```
npm run build
```
This will generate the files ./jsoneditor.js, ./jsoneditor.css, and
minified versions in the dist of the project.
To automatically build when a source file has changed:
```
npm start
```
This will update ./jsoneditor.js and ./jsoneditor.css in the dist folder on every change, but it will NOT update the minified versions as that's an expensive operation.

Test

Run unit tests:

npm test

Run code linting (JavaScript Standard Style):

npm run lint

Custom builds

The source code of JSONEditor consists of CommonJS modules. JSONEditor can be bundled in a customized way using a module bundler like browserify or webpack. First, install all dependencies of jsoneditor:

npm install

To create a custom bundle of the source code using browserify:

browserify ./index.js -o ./jsoneditor.custom.js -s JSONEditor

The Ace editor, used in mode code, accounts for about one third of the total size of the library. To exclude the Ace editor from the bundle:

browserify ./index.js -o ./jsoneditor.custom.js -s JSONEditor -x brace -x brace/mode/json -x brace/ext/searchbox

To minify the generated bundle, use uglifyjs:

uglifyjs ./jsoneditor.custom.js -o ./jsoneditor.custom.min.js -m -c
