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).
