GSON似乎支持这一点，尽管我不知道您是否想从正在使用的库切换。

来自用户指南:

Gson gson = new GsonBuilder().setPrettyPrinting().create();
String jsonOutput = gson.toJson(someObject);

你可以使用小的json库

String jsonstring = ....;
JsonValue json = JsonParser.parse(jsonstring);
String jsonIndendedByTwoSpaces = json.toPrettyString("  ");

I also use the org.json.simple package. I have simply coded the formatter, but since I don't have nulls, numbers or booleans in my JSON objects in the program that I wrote, I only coded for strings, objects and arrays. If anyone is interested, let this just be in the public domain. You are welcome to add the missing data types (where it says in the comment "it's a string"). Also, you can add the indentation as a parameter whereas mine is just two spaces. Please reshare after you've tested your improvements.

用法： printJsonObject（jsonObject， “”）;

功能:

    public static void printJsonObject(JSONObject object, String prefix) {
        boolean notFirst = false;
        System.out.println(prefix + "{");
        for (Object key : object.keySet()) {
            if (notFirst) {
                System.out.println(", ");
            }
            notFirst = true;
            Object value = object.get(key);
            System.out.print(prefix + "  " + "\"" + key + "\"" + ": ");
            if (value instanceof JSONObject) {
                printJsonObject((JSONObject) value, prefix + "  ");
            } else if (value instanceof JSONArray) {
                printJsonArray((JSONArray) value, prefix + "  ");
            } else {  // it's a string
                System.out.print("\"" + value + "\"");
            }
        }
        System.out.println("");
        System.out.print(prefix + "}");
    }

    public static void printJsonArray(JSONArray array, String prefix) {
        boolean notFirst = false;
        System.out.println("[");
        for (Object item : array) {
            if (notFirst) {
                System.out.println(", ");
            }
            notFirst = true;
            if (item instanceof JSONObject) {
                printJsonObject((JSONObject) item, prefix + "  ");
            } else if (item instanceof JSONArray) {
                printJsonArray((JSONArray) item, prefix + "  ");
            } else {
                System.out.print(prefix + "  " + "\"" + item + "\"");
            }
        }
        System.out.println("");
        System.out.print(prefix + "]");
    }

现在这可以通过JSONLib库实现:

http://json-lib.sourceforge.net/apidocs/net/sf/json/JSONObject.html

当(且仅当)你使用重载的toString(int indentationFactor)方法而不是标准的toString()方法。

我已经在以下版本的API上验证了这一点:

<dependency>
  <groupId>org.json</groupId>
  <artifactId>json</artifactId>
  <version>20140107</version>
</dependency>

我的情况是我的项目使用了不支持漂亮打印的遗留(非jsr) JSON解析器。然而，我需要生成漂亮的JSON样本;这是可能的，而不需要添加任何额外的库，只要你使用Java 7及以上:

ScriptEngineManager manager = new ScriptEngineManager();
ScriptEngine scriptEngine = manager.getEngineByName("JavaScript");
scriptEngine.put("jsonString", jsonStringNoWhitespace);
scriptEngine.eval("result = JSON.stringify(JSON.parse(jsonString), null, 2)");
String prettyPrintedJson = (String) scriptEngine.get("result");

遵循JSON-P 1.0规范(JSR-353)，对于给定的JsonStructure (JsonObject或JsonArray)，一个更当前的解决方案可能是这样的:

import java.io.StringWriter;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;

import javax.json.Json;
import javax.json.JsonStructure;
import javax.json.JsonWriter;
import javax.json.JsonWriterFactory;
import javax.json.stream.JsonGenerator;

public class PrettyJson {

    private static JsonWriterFactory FACTORY_INSTANCE;

    public static String toString(final JsonStructure status) {

        final StringWriter stringWriter = new StringWriter();

        final JsonWriter jsonWriter = getPrettyJsonWriterFactory()
                .createWriter(stringWriter);

        jsonWriter.write(status);
        jsonWriter.close();

        return stringWriter.toString();
    }

    private static JsonWriterFactory getPrettyJsonWriterFactory() {
        if (null == FACTORY_INSTANCE) {
            final Map<String, Object> properties = new HashMap<>(1);
            properties.put(JsonGenerator.PRETTY_PRINTING, true);
            FACTORY_INSTANCE = Json.createWriterFactory(properties);
        }
        return FACTORY_INSTANCE;
    }

}
