pmjson — Performance Co-Pilot JSON dumping utility
Synopsis
Description
pmjson is used to manipulate JSON (JavaScript Object Notation) formatted text used in the Performance Co-Pilot (PCP toolkit). It can produce minimal and human readable output formats when it is supplied with valid JSON input.
Options
The available command line options are:
- -i infile, --in=infile
JSON formatted input infile - path to a file from which input should be read. If this option is omitted, then pmjson will read from the standard input stream.
- -m, --minimal
Produce JSON output with all superflous whitespace removed from the resulting JSON string.
- -o outfile, --out=outfile
Formatted output is written to the named outfile. If this option is omitted, then pmjson will write to the standard output stream.
- -p, --pretty
Produce JSON output in a human-readable format.
- -q, --quiet
Verify the input as valid JSON only, no output is produced.
- -V, --version
Display version number and exit.
- -y, --yaml
Produce YAML-like output, a human-readable format with less syntactic sugar than JSON.
- -?, --help
Display usage message and exit.
PCP Environment
Environment variables with the prefix PCP_ are used to parameterize the file and directory names used by PCP. On each installation, the file /etc/pcp.conf contains the local values for these variables. The $PCP_CONF variable may be used to specify an alternative configuration file, as described in pcp.conf(5).
