JsonTruncator

JsonTruncator is a utility class designed for truncating JSON objects or arrays to a specified maximum length. This tool is particularly useful for managing large JSON data by limiting the amount of data displayed, which can help in debugging and logging scenarios. JsonTruncator supports both objects and arrays, including nested structures, ensuring that even deeply nested JSON data can be truncated efficiently.

Installing the package globally allows you to use the truncate-json command directly from the command line.

Usage

Importing the Class

To utilize the JsonTruncator class in your project, import it as follows:

Using the truncate Method

The truncate method allows you to truncate JSON objects or arrays to a maximum number of items. Here is how you can use it:

Example

import { JsonTruncator } from "json-truncator";

const inputArray = [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10];
const truncatedArray = JsonTruncator.truncate(inputArray, 5);

console.log(truncatedArray);
// Output: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, '...']

const inputObject = { a: 1, b: 2, c: 3, d: 4, e: 5 };
const truncatedObject = JsonTruncator.truncate(inputObject, 3);

console.log(truncatedObject);
// Output: { a: 1, b: 2, c: 3, etc: '...' }

CLI Usage

If the package is installed globally, you can use it directly from the command line to truncate JSON data.
