VERSION
This documents version 0.62 of JSON::Whitespace corresponding to git commit d04630086f6c92fea720cba4568faa0cbbdde5a6 <https://github.com/benkasminbullock/JSON-Parse/commit/d04630086f6c92fea720cba4568faa0cbbdde5a6> released on Sat Jul 16 08:23:13 2022 +0900.

DESCRIPTION
This module offers functions to manipulate the "insignificant whitespace" part of a JSON string (the whitespace which is not inside strings). According to the JSON specification "insignificant whitespace" consists of space (%x20), horizontal tab (%x09), line feed or new line (%x0A) and carriage return (%x0D).

FUNCTIONS

  json_indent
    my $indented = json_indent ($json);

Add indentation to $json.

  json_minify
    my $minified = json_minify ($json);

Remove all whitespace, including trailing newlines, from $json.

SEE ALSO
Documentation about JSON is in JSON::Parse. JSON::Whitespace is based on JSON::Tokenize, which breaks JSON into tokens without putting it into Perl structures.
