NAME

       pmjson - Performance Co-Pilot JSON dumping utility

SYNOPSIS

       pmjson [-mpqy] [-i|--in FILE] [-o|--out FILE]

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.

       The available command line options are as follows:

       -i|--in FILE
            JSON  formatted input FILE - path to a file from which input should be read.  If this
            option is omitted, then pmjson will read from the standard input stream.

       -o|--out FILE
            Formatted output is written to the named FILE.   If  this  option  is  omitted,  then
            pmjson will write to the standard output stream.

       -m|--minimal
            Produce  JSON  output  with all superflous whitespace removed from the resulting JSON
            string.

       -p|--pretty
            Produce JSON output in a human-readable format.

       -q|--quiet
            Verify the input as valid JSON only, no output is produced.

       -y|--yaml
            Produce YAML-like output, a human-readable format  with  less  syntactic  sugar  than
            JSON.

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).
