CBOR2JSON(1) General Commands Manual CBOR2JSON(1)
NAME
cbor2json - convert CBOR wire protocol to JSON
SYNOPSIS
cbor2json test.cbor > test.json
DESCRIPTION
cbor2json creates a JSON file that mirrors (somewhat) the intent of the
input
set of CBOR files. For the subset of CBOR that directly maps to JSON,
the
output will seem reasonable. For CBOR inputs that do not map nicely to
JSON,
substitutions are made that may or may not match your expectations. For
example, the input:
0xc100
c1 -- Tag 1 (Date)
00 -- 0
produces the following output that does not round-trip back to the same
CBOR
input:
"1970-01-01T00:00:00.000Z"
OPTIONS
-: read from stdin instead of a file. This is the default.
-x [string]: read the input from the hex-encoded string on the command
line
-V, --version: print the node-cbor version and exit
-h, --help: print some help text and exit
