=head1 NAME
json2perl.pl : convert JSON data to a Perl variable (dump) which can be parsed or eval'ed by any Perl script.
=head1 VERSION
Version 0.10
=head1 SYNOPSIS
json2perl.pl -i "input.json" -o "output.pl" --no-escape-unicode --terse --no-indent
json2perl.pl -e < "input.json" > "output.pl"
# press CTRL-D when done typing JSON to STDIN
# input must be less than 4K long!
json2perl.pl
# Read input from clipboard or write output to clipboard
# Only in: Unix / Linux / OSX
# (must have already installed xclip or xsel or pbpaste (on OSX))
json2json.pl -e < $(xclip -o)
json2json.pl -e < $(pbaste)
# write the output to the clipboard for further pasting
json2json.pl -i input.json | xclip -i
# clicking mouse's middle-button will paste the result
=head1 USAGE
C<json2perl.pl>
Options:
=over 4
=item * C<--i filename> : specify a filename which contains a JSON
data structure.
=item * C<--I "string"> : specify a string which contains a JSON
data structure.
=item * C<--o outputfilename> : specify the output filename to write
the result to, which will be as a Perl variable, as a dump,
which can be parsed or eval'ed from any Perl script.
=item * C<--escape-unicode> : it will escape all unicode characters, and
convert them to something like "\u0386". This is the default option.
=item * C<--no-escape-unicode> : it will NOT escape unicode characters. Output
will not contain "\u0386" or "\x{386}" but "α" (that's a greek alpha).
=item * C<--terse> / C<--no-terse> : Terse form of output (no $VAR1 for example).
The second is the default option.
=item * C<--indent> / C<--no-indent> : do not use indentation. The first is the default option.
=back
Input can be read from an input file (--i), from a string at the
command line (--I) (properly quoted!), from STDIN (which also includes
a file redirection C<< json2perl.pl < inputfile.json > outputfile.perl >>
For more information see L<Data::Roundtrip>.
=head1 CAVEATS
Under Unix/Linux,
the maximum number of characters that can be read
on a terminal is 4096. So, in reading-from-STDIN mode
beware how much you type or how much you copy-paste
onto the script. If it complains about malformed input
then this is the case. The workaround is to type/paste
onto a file and operate on that using C<< --i afile >>
or redirection C<< < afile >>.
