A python-native JSON Viewer TUI, inspired by [fx](https://github.com/antonmedv/fx).  
*Pyfx* supports:
* Read JSON files in terminal from several sources (file, pipe or clipboard).
* Query JSON files using JSONPath query.

## Prerequisites
* OS: MacOS / Linux
* python: >= 3.8
* pip

## Installation
### Pip
```bash
pip install python-fx
```
### Build from Source
Clone the this [repo](https://github.com/cielong/pyfx.git), change directory into the project and run
```bash
pip install -U autopep8 tox build
make install
```
### Local Development
1. Download and install the latest [ANTLR v4](https://www.antlr.org/)

* It is required that ANTLR version installed matches the version of the Python ANTLR runtime version.  

2. Clone the this [repo](https://github.com/cielong/pyfx.git), change directory into the project and run
```bash
pip install -U pipenv
pipenv install --dev
```

## Quick Start
You can use *Pyfx* in two ways:
* A standalone CLI tool
* A python module which can be integrated in any python CLI application

For details, please check the hosted [documentation](https://python-fx.readthedocs.io/en/latest/).
### CLI
Check [Key Bindings](#key-bindings) section for default key bindings.  
*Pyfx* comes with a CLI, use it
* To open a JSON file
  ```bash
   pyfx JSON_FILE
  ```
* To read JSON data from pipe
  ```bash
   cat JSON_FILE | pyfx
  ```
* To read JSON data from clipboard
  ```bash
   pyfx -x / --from-clipboard
  ```

### Python Module
Check [Key Bindings](#key-bindings) section for default key bindings.
  
#### Directly Attach *Pyfx* Simple TUI
Directly integrate *Pyfx*'s TUI into your own project.  
```python
from pyfx import PyfxApp

data = [1]
# data is the JSON data to be rendered in the TUI
PyfxApp(data=data).run()
```

#### Integrate with Your Own Urwid-based TUI
Integrate *Pyfx* native JSON widgets into your own urwid-based TUI.
```python
from pyfx.view.json_lib import JSONListBox, JSONListWalker

data = [1]

# 1. create JSONListBox from data
listbox = JSONListBox(JSONListWalker(data))

# 2. use listbox in your own TUI
```

## Configuration
*Pyfx* is configured using YAML. There are two ways to provide a configuration file: 
* Pass directly through CLI option (`-c` | `--config`).
* Create a config file in predefined folders and *Pyfx* will load it with best effort.  
  The predefined folders are searched in following order, with the first exist one has high priority.  
  1. `~/.config/pyfx/config.yml`
  2. `src/pyfx/config/yaml/config.yml` [default config](src/pyfx/config/yaml/config.yml)

For available configuration, see [configuration](https://python-fx.readthedocs.io/en/latest/configuration/index.html).

### Default Configuration
#### Theme

## Known Limitation
When open with very large JSON files, Pyfx will freeze on JSONPath query.  

The following statistics is tested at a MacBook Air (1.1GHz Quad-Core Intel Core i5
and 8GB RAM).

| File Size        | Functionality       | Usability                                    |
|------------------|---------------------|----------------------------------------------|
| 57MB             | Display JSON        | Fairly good                                  |
| ^^               | Query Autocomplete  | Latency <= 200ms                             |
| ^^               | Query JSONPath      | Roughly 1~2s latency                         |
| 570MB            | Display JSON        | Slow loading                                 |
| ^^               | Query Autocomplete  | Latency <= 200ms. Give up with large data    |
| ^^               | Query JSONPath      | UI may freeze depend on the search space     |
