Sublime Text - JSON formatter shortcut - json

Question

I'm using SublimeText2.
How to reindent Json code with a shortcut?
I've already installed packageControl and it works.
I already tried JsonReindent package but it has not a shortcut by default and i don't know its command name.
I already have this command (from my previous sublimetext2 on another pc, where it works fine):
// JSON reindent
{ "keys": ["ctrl+shift+j", "ctrl+shift+j"], "command": "json_reindent" },
But here it doesn't work.

Answer 1

I have come across this issue too. I tried to figure it out by install jsFormat as follows:
Open Package Control panel command+shift+p (mac), install package.
Install jsFormat.
Edit the shortcut for the jsformat:
Choose Key-Binding user, then edit
[
{
"keys": [
"command+l"
],
"command": "reindent"
},
{
"keys": [
"ctrl+shift+s"
],
"command": "auto_save"
},
{
"keys": [
"ctrl+alt+f"
],
"command": "js_format"
}
]
So next time when you try to format json code, just use ctrl+option+f for mac. Not mac, just use ctrl+alt+f
That's all.

Install this packages via CMD + SHIFT + P > Install package > Search for Pretty JSON and install.
And then turn ugly json via CMD + CTRL + J (OSX) CTRL + ALT + J (Windows/Linux) in pretty JSON!

For sublime 4 below work for me on MAC OS :
Install "Pretty JSON" sublime 4 by refer below:
Use key combination Cmd + Shift + p and type Install Package
Select Package Control: Install Package from the search results
Type Pretty JSON and select it from the search results
OR use "Manual Installation" steps of below link
https://packagecontrol.io/packages/Pretty%20JSON
now for shortcut :
Click on Sublime -> Preferences -> Key Bindings
Here add the below json part inside existing json and save the file
{ "keys": [ "ctrl+shift+j" ], "command": "pretty_json" }
you can use cmd too instead of ctrl, set says as per your preference
Complete json will look like below:
[{
"keys": [
"command+l"
],
"command": "reindent"
},
{
"keys": [
"ctrl+shift+s"
],
"command": "auto_save"
},
{
"keys": [
"ctrl+shift+k"
],
"command": "js_format"
},
{
"keys": [
"ctrl+shift+j"
],
"command": "pretty_json"
}
]
Now use below short key anytime to beautify json on sublime
ctrl+shift+j
You can also use command instead of ctrl

Answer 5

If you look at the source, the name of the sublime_plugin.TextCommand subclass is SublimeJsonReindentCommand. Per the conventions for command names, the resulting command is named sublime_json_reindent. Simply change your key binding to:
{ "keys": ["ctrl+shift+j", "ctrl+shift+j"], "command": "sublime_json_reindent" },
and you should be all set.

You can use Command Palette to format a text
//Call Command Palette

pretty format

Answer 7

I am using Linux OS. I found the solution first installing the package controller then Pretty JSON package.
Install the package controller for sublime here
Install Pretty JSON packages via CMD + SHIFT + P > Install package > Search for Pretty JSON and install. Details are here.

Answer 8

Open the Command Palette: Press Ctrl+Shift+P (Windows) or Cmd+Shift+P (OS X). Type 'install' in the Command Palette input box, which should autocomplete to 'Install Package Control'.
Then go to Sublime Text -> Preferences -> Package Control -> Type Package Control: Install Package in the pop up box which would open a separate pop up box and in that type the package you want to install in this case "Pretty JSON"
Turn ugly json to pretty JSON via CMD + CTRL + J (OS X)

Since version 4 it is available under the Selection -> Format -> JSON menu option.
