Json Viewer Editor: A Convenient Tool for Viewing and Editing Json Files
Json Viewer Editor is a free Chrome add-on developed by Alex Shats. This handy tool enhances your browsing experience by adding a right-click context menu option called "Show Json." With this feature, you can easily view and edit selected text or linked file content in a local json editor, all within a new tab.
The first feature allows you to select any text on a webpage, right-click, and choose "Show Json." This will open a new tab with a local json editor, displaying the selected text. This is particularly useful for developers or anyone working with json data, as it provides a quick and convenient way to view and manipulate the json structure.
The second feature extends the functionality to hyperlinks. When you right-click on a hyperlink and select "Show Json," the linked file's content will be displayed in the local json editor in a new tab. To enable this feature, you need to go to chrome://extensions, click on the Details button of the Json Viewer Editor extension, and switch on the "Allow access to file URLs" option.
Please note that the second feature requires the permission "Manage your downloads" in order to launch file downloads. This ensures that you have the necessary access to view and edit the linked file's content.
Json Viewer Editor is a valuable tool for anyone working with json files. Its simple and intuitive interface, combined with the convenience of the right-click context menu, makes it a must-have add-on for Chrome users.
