Description
json-glib-format offers a simple command line interface to format JSON data. It reads a list or URIs,
applies the spacified formatting rules on the JSON data, and outputs the formatted JSON to the standard
output or to a file.
The resources to operate on are specified by the FILE argument.

Options
-h,--help
Print a help message and exit.
--output=FILE
Redirects the output to FILE instead of using the standard output.
-p,--prettify
Prettifies the output, by adding spaces and indentation. This argument is useful to improve the
readability of JSON data, at the expense of its size.
--indent-spaces=SPACES
Changes the number of spaces using to indent the JSON data from the default of 2. This argument is
only considered if --prettify is used.
