What are vue-json-pretty's main functionalities?

Pretty JSON Rendering

This feature allows you to render JSON data in a visually appealing format. The component takes a JSON object as a prop and displays it with proper indentation and styling.

<template>
  <vue-json-pretty :data="jsonData" />
</template>

<script>
import VueJsonPretty from 'vue-json-pretty';
import 'vue-json-pretty/lib/styles.css';

export default {
  components: { VueJsonPretty },
  data() {
    return {
      jsonData: {
        name: "John Doe",
        age: 30,
        city: "New York"
      }
    };
  }
};
</script>

Collapsible Nodes

This feature allows you to collapse and expand nodes in the JSON structure. By setting the 'deep' prop, you can control the initial depth of expanded nodes, making it easier to navigate large JSON objects.

<template>
  <vue-json-pretty :data="jsonData" :deep="1" />
</template>

<script>
import VueJsonPretty from 'vue-json-pretty';
import 'vue-json-pretty/lib/styles.css';

export default {
  components: { VueJsonPretty },
  data() {
    return {
      jsonData: {
        name: "John Doe",
        details: {
          age: 30,
          city: "New York"
        }
      }
    };
  }
};
</script>
