NAME         top

       pmjson - Performance Co-Pilot JSON dumping utility

SYNOPSIS         top

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

DESCRIPTION         top

       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         top

       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).
