**A user-friendly tool to view, analyze, and interact with JSON and JSONL data.**

freesimplejson provides an intuitive graphical interface built with FreeSimpleGUI to make JSON exploration seamless. It features a side-by-side view for raw JSON input and a structured tree display, along with powerful filtering capabilities using JSONPath.

## ✨ Key Features

*   **Dual Pane Interface:**
    *   **Left Pane:** Input single JSON objects or multiple JSON objects in JSONL format (one JSON object per line).
    *   **Right Pane:** Interactive tree view of the parsed JSON, clearly showing keys, values, levels, and hierarchy.
*   **JSONL Support:**
    *   Handles JSONL files or input.
    *   Displays the selected JSONL row in the tree view.
    *   Efficiently loads large JSONL files (initially showing a subset if very large - *feature mentioned in functions.md, implementation details may vary*).
*   **Interactive Tree View:**
    *   Expand and collapse nodes to explore complex JSON structures.
    *   Clear distinction between keys and values.
*   **JSONPath Filtering:**
    *   Filter the JSON data displayed in the tree view using JSONPath expressions for precise data extraction.
    *   Quick help for JSONPath syntax.
*   **Pretty Print:**
    *   Format the JSON in the input pane with a "Pretty JSON" button.
*   **Status Bar:** Provides feedback on operations and errors.

## 📸 Screenshots

*Placeholder: Add screenshots of your application here! Showcasing the UI, tree view, and filtering in action would be great.*

## 🛠️ Installation

1.  **Clone the repository (or download the source):**
    ```bash
    git clone https://github.com/fxyzbtc/freesimplejson.git
    cd pysimplejson
    ```
2.  **Ensure you have Python 3.12+ installed.**
3.  **Install dependencies:**
    The project uses `uv` for package management (as indicated by `uv.lock`). If you have `uv` installed:
    ```bash
    uv pip install -r requirements.txt 
    ```
    (You might need to generate `requirements.txt` from `pyproject.toml` first if it's not present: `uv pip freeze > requirements.txt` or `uv pip compile pyproject.toml -o requirements.txt`)

    Alternatively, using `pip` with `pyproject.toml`:
    ```bash
    pip install .
    ```
    This will install `pysimplejson` and its dependencies:
    *   `freesimplegui>=5.2.0.post1`
    *   `jsonpath-ng>=1.7.0`

## 🚀 Usage

To run the freesimplejson application:

```bash
python freesimplejson/main.py
```

Once the application starts:
1.  Paste your JSON or JSONL content into the "JSON Input" text area on the left.
2.  The JSON tree view on the right will automatically update.
    *   If using JSONL, click on a line in the input (or have a mechanism to select a line) to see it in the tree view.
3.  Use the "JSONPath Filter" input and "Apply Filter" button to query the displayed JSON.
4.  Use "Expand All" / "Collapse All" for the tree view as needed.
5.  Use "Pretty JSON" to format the input in the left pane.

## 🧩 Dependencies

*   [FreeSimpleGUI](https://pypi.org/project/FreeSimpleGUI/): For the graphical user interface.
*   [jsonpath-ng](https://pypi.org/project/jsonpath-ng/): For JSONPath filtering capabilities.
