json5format Rust library

The json5format library includes APIs to customize the document format, with style options configurable both globally (affecting the entire document) as well as tailoring specific subsets of a target JSON5 schema. (See the Rust package documentation for more details and examples.) As of version 0.2.0, public APIs allow limited support for accessing the information inside a parsed document, and for injecting or modifying comments.

formatjson5 command line tool

The json5format package also bundles an example command line tool, formatjson5, that formats JSON5 documents using a basic style with some customizations available through command line options:

$ cargo build --example formatjson5
$ ./target/debug/examples/formatjson5 --help
