Name | Description | Type | Default |
---|
v-model / modelValue (Vue 3) / value (Vue 2) | binding value | any | |
mode / v-model:mode (Vue 3) / :mode.sync (Vue 2) | edit mode | Mode | 'tree' |
debounce | debounce delay when typing, in milliseconds | number | 100 |
stringified | whether to keep the value as stringified JSON in text mode | boolean | true |
... | properties of svelte-jsoneditor | | |
parsed JSON vs. stringified JSON
- parsed JSON: what we commonly refer to as JSON, which can be of any data type.
- stringified JSON: serialized JSON, which is always a string type.
Binding value difference between svelte-jsoneditor and json-editor-vue
- svelte-jsoneditor: An object contains a parsed JSON or a stringified JSON, will do
JSON.parse
when passing as a stringified JSON. - json-editor-vue: JSON itself. What you see is what you get.
If you prefer the behavior of svelte-jsoneditor:
<JsonEditorVue
:content="content"
:onChange="(updatedContent) => {
content = updatedContent
}"
/>
The association between binding value and modes
[!Important]
The input value is independent of modes, except:
Input value of string type will be treated as a normal string under tree mode, as a stringified JSON under text mode by default.
The output value of tree mode is a parsed JSON, the output value of text mode is a stringified JSON.
But this correspondence can be disrupted by programmatic changes or mode switching.
See https://github.com/josdejong/svelte-jsoneditor/pull/166 for more details.
FAQ: How to keep the value as parsed JSON in text mode:
[!Caution]
- Not performant for large JSON documents.
- Adjust the
debounce
value based on the size of your JSON. - Will output empty value when the input value is invalid.
<JsonEditorVue
mode="text"
:main-menu-bar="false"
:stringified="false"
:debounce="1000"
/>
Naming convention
Support camelCase and kebab-case for tag & property name.
[!Tip]
When using json-editor-vue or any Vue component via CDN (HTML), kebab-case must be used exclusively due to HTML's case insensitivity.
Boolean properties
Including the boolean properties of svelte-jsoneditor like readOnly
with no value will imply true
