# Description This is a minor breaking change to JSON output syntax/style of the `to json` command. This fixes #13326 by setting `braces_same_line` to true when creating a new `HjsonFormatter`. This then simply tells `HjsonFormatter` to keep the braces on the same line when outputting which is what I expected nu's `to json` command to do. There are almost no changes to nushell itself, all changes are contained within `nu-json` crate (minus any documentation updates). Oh, almost forgot to mention, to get the tests compiling, I added fancy_regex as a _dev_ dependency to nu-json. I could look into eliminating that if desirable. # User-Facing Changes **Breaking Change** nushell now outputs the desired result using the reproduction command from the issue: ``` echo '{"version": "v0.4.4","notes": "blablabla","pub_date": "2024-05-04T16:05:00Z","platforms":{"windows-x86_64":{"signature": "blablabla","url": "https://blablabla"}}}' | from json | to json ``` outputs: ``` { "version": "v0.4.4", "notes": "blablabla", "pub_date": "2024-05-04T16:05:00Z", "platforms": { "windows-x86_64": { "signature": "blablabla", "url": "https://blablabla" } } } ``` whereas previously it would push the opening braces onto a new line: ``` { "version": "v0.4.4", "notes": "blablabla", "pub_date": "2024-05-04T16:05:00Z", "platforms": { "windows-x86_64": { "signature": "blablabla", "url": "https://blablabla" } } } ``` # Tests + Formatting toolkit check pr mostly passes - there are regrettably some tests not passing on my windows machine _before making any changes_ (I may look into this as a separate issue) I have re-enabled the [hjson tests](https://github.com/nushell/nushell/blob/main/crates/nu-json/tests/main.rs). This is done in the second commit 🙂 They have a crucial difference to what they were previously asserting: * nu-json outputs in json syntax, not hjson syntax I think this is desirable, but I'm not aware of the history of these tests. # After Submitting I suspect there `to json` command examples will need updating to match, haven't checked yet!
Nushell core libraries and plugins
These sub-crates form both the foundation for Nu and a set of plugins which extend Nu with additional functionality.
Foundational libraries are split into two kinds of crates:
- Core crates - those crates that work together to build the Nushell language engine
- Support crates - a set of crates that support the engine with additional features like JSON support, ANSI support, and more.
Plugins are likewise also split into two types:
- Core plugins - plugins that provide part of the default experience of Nu, including access to the system properties, processes, and web-connectivity features.
- Extra plugins - these plugins run a wide range of different capabilities like working with different file types, charting, viewing binary data, and more.
