JSON Processor

A Visual Studio Code extension that provides tools for processing JSON files by deduplicating or sorting JSON keys.

Features

This extension provides two main features:

1. Deduplicate JSON Keys: Removes duplicate keys from JSON objects while preserving the first occurrence of each key.
2. Sort JSON Keys: Sorts all keys in JSON objects alphabetically.

Both operations:

• Work recursively on nested objects
• Preserve the original values
• Maintain proper JSON formatting
• Handle arrays properly
• Provide immediate feedback

Installation

1. Open Visual Studio Code
2. Press Ctrl+P (Windows/Linux) or Cmd+P (macOS)
3. Type ext install json-processor
4. Press Enter

Usage

1. Open a JSON file in VS Code
2. Right-click in the editor
3. Choose either:
   • "Deduplicate JSON Keys" to remove duplicate keys
   • "Sort JSON Keys" to sort keys alphabetically

Example:

Original JSON:

{
    "b": 1,
    "a": 2,
    "b": 3,
    "c": {
        "y": 1,
        "x": 2,
        "y": 3
    }
}

After deduplication:

{
    "b": 1,
    "a": 2,
    "c": {
        "y": 1,
        "x": 2
    }
}

After sorting:

{
    "a": 2,
    "b": 1,
    "c": {
        "x": 2,
        "y": 1
    }
}

Requirements

• Visual Studio Code version 1.80.0 or higher
