jsonutils

Converter for JSON data to a Go struct or a Java class for GSON

go get github.com/bashtian/jsonutils/cmd/jsonutil

You can print the structure of a JSON from a URL

jsonutil https://api.github.com/repos/bashtian/jsonutils

or from a file

jsonutil -f file.json

or from stdin

echo '{"some": "data"}' | jsonutil

If you want to print example data as comments, use the -x parameter

jsonutil -x https://api.github.com/repos/bashtian/jsonutils

You can also print Java code

jsonutil -j https://api.github.com/repos/bashtian/jsonutils
