# One-off — no install needed
npx consolelog-tools json-format messy.json

# Install globally for a shorter `consolelog` invocation
npm i -g consolelog-tools
consolelog uuid -n 5

Every command reads input from (in order): a file path, an inline string argument, or stdin. Output goes to stdout — failures exit non-zero with an error on stderr, so you can chain everything with shell pipes.

Pipelines

Everything composes — read from stdin, pipe to anything else:

# Hash a UUID
consolelog uuid | consolelog hash --algo sha256

# Pretty-print a curl response
curl -s api.example.com/users | consolelog json-format

# Convert a YAML file and minify it back
consolelog yaml-to-json config.yaml | consolelog json-minify > config.min.json
