The JSON support shipped with VS Code supports all draft versions from Draft 4 to JSON Schema Draft 2020-12. JSON schemas describe the shape of the JSON file, as well as value sets, default values, and descriptions. To understand the structure of JSON files, we use JSON schemas. You can also directly modify the files.associations setting to associate file names or file name patterns to jsonc. Select the mode indicator to change the mode and to configure how file extensions are associated to modes. The current editor mode is indicated in the editor's Status Bar. When in the JSON with Comments mode, you can use single line ( //) as well as block comments ( /* */) as used in JavaScript.

This mode is used for the VS Code configuration files such as settings.json, tasks.json, or launch.json. In addition to the default JSON mode following the JSON specification, VS Code also has a JSON with Comments (jsonc) mode. Folding regions are available for all object and array elements. You can fold regions of source code using the folding icons on the gutter between line numbers and line start. You can format your JSON document using ⇧⌥F (Windows Shift+Alt+F, Linux Ctrl+Shift+I) or Format Document from the context menu. When you hover over properties and values for JSON data with or without schema, we will provide additional context. JSON files can get large and we support quick navigation to properties using the Go to Symbol command ( ⇧⌘O (Windows, Linux Ctrl+Shift+O)). We also offer IntelliSense for specific value sets such as package and project dependencies in package.json, project.json, and bower.json.
#Json file viewer verification
We also perform structural and value verification based on an associated JSON schema giving you red squiggles. You can also manually see suggestions with the Trigger Suggestions command ( ⌃Space (Windows, Linux Ctrl+Space)). json, VS Code provides features to make it simpler to write or modify the file's content.įor properties and values, both for JSON data with or without a schema, we offer up suggestions as you type with IntelliSense. We also use it extensively in Visual Studio Code for our configuration files. JSON is a data format that is common in configuration files like package.json or project.json. Configure IntelliSense for cross-compilingĮdit Editing JSON with Visual Studio Code.Provide information about what you're looking for on your export, and upload your JSON file if possible. Totally understandable! If you still have questions, reach out to Trello Support. We recommend knowing what information you're looking for going in, and using the "find" feature in your spreadsheet viewer to find it-that will typically be easier than looking for it yourself. However, if you're trying to extract a single piece of information from the JSON these converters can make that task a little easier. If a developer isn't available, you may want to try using an online JSON-to-CSV converter, such as:īecause of the one-to-many nature of Trello data (one card can map to several pieces of information-multiple comments, checklist items, etc.), the converted CSV usually isn't usable as a document to present to others. To do this, we suggest reaching out to a developer-JSON, particularly when it's covering a whole board, can be complicated to parse out correctly. You may run into a situation where you need to use Trello's JSON export to locate a piece of information. Here's a link you can use to search for these - Īnother option is the TrelloExport Chrome extension: If you're not working with a Premium Workspace, or want to pull information from the JSON that isn't included in the Premium CSV export, the first thing we'd suggest is looking at the third-party Power-Ups that exist for Trello as you may be able to use one of this to link between Trello and another app to display this data in another app (e.g. in a single row in Excel, since some of it contains information about actions over time (movement) and some contains information about static information (the content of new checklist items, for example). That nesting and one-to-many nature of the data is why some of this information isn't included on Trello's CSV export. That information is hard to represent e.g. For example, for a single card, you can have information about what's currently on the card, a history of what was previously on the card, information about changes that have been made to the card (moves between lists), and information about structures that are themselves nested (like checklist items within a checklist on a single card). One of the difficulties with making Trello's JSON human-readable is that in many cases, there are multiple pieces of information nested within a single structure. There's also a JSONView add-on for Firefox. JSON without the Chrome JSONView extension.įor Chrome, we recommend the JSONView extension.
