copy-json-path

Copy path to selected JSON or JS node as string.

Path parts are concatenated with . or wrapped with [""] for object keys and wrapped in [] for array indices.

Example:

For state like this (cursor position is bold)

{"a": ["q", {"k": 1}, 1]}

Path would be a[1].k.

For JS like this

Path would be q[1].

NOTE: JS objects are not validated.

Using

Launch command Copy Json Path from command palette or context menu.

Configuration

• extension.copyJsonPath.nonQuotedKeyRegex: regex that tests whether key in path can be used without quotes. If key matches - key is not quoted. Use it if you want to have path a.b-c instead of a[\"b-c\"] for example. If you want all keys to be escaped - use regex that doesn't match anything, e.g. single space will only match single space, which is very rare object key (you can go more complicated like a{1000}). Default is ^[a-zA-Z$_][a-zA-Z\\d$_]*$. • extension.copyJsonPath.putFileNameInPath: boolean to set if the file name should be in the path. Default is false. • extension.copyJsonPath.prefixSeparator: string separator to put between the prefix and the path. Default is :. • extension.copyJsonPath.pathSeparator: string separator to put between the parts of the path. Default is ..
