如果你正在使用RABL，你可以使用JSON.pretty_generate来配置它:

class PrettyJson
  def self.dump(object)
    JSON.pretty_generate(object, {:indent => "  "})
  end
end

Rabl.configure do |config|
  ...
  config.json_engine = PrettyJson if Rails.env.development?
  ...
end

使用JSON的一个问题。pretty_generate是JSON模式验证器将不再满意您的datetime字符串。你可以在config/initializers/rabl_config中修正这些问题。rb:

ActiveSupport::TimeWithZone.class_eval do
  alias_method :orig_to_s, :to_s
  def to_s(format = :default)
    format == :default ? iso8601 : orig_to_s(format)
  end
end

# example of use:
a_hash = {user_info: {type: "query_service", e_mail: "my@email.com", phone: "+79876543322"}, cars_makers: ["bmw", "mitsubishi"], car_models: [bmw: {model: "1er", year_mfc: 2006}, mitsubishi: {model: "pajero", year_mfc: 1997}]}
pretty_html = a_hash.pretty_html

# include this module to your libs:
module MyPrettyPrint
    def pretty_html indent = 0
        result = ""
        if self.class == Hash
            self.each do |key, value|
                result += "#{key}: #{[Array, Hash].include?(value.class) ? value.pretty_html(indent+1) : value}"
            end
        elsif self.class == Array
            result = "[#{self.join(', ')}]"
        end
        "#{result}"
    end

end

class Hash
    include MyPrettyPrint
end

class Array
    include MyPrettyPrint
end

使用pretty_generate()函数，该函数内置于JSON的后期版本中。例如:

require 'json'
my_object = { :array => [1, 2, 3, { :sample => "hash"} ], :foo => "bar" }
puts JSON.pretty_generate(my_object)

这就得到了:

{
  "array": [
    1,
    2,
    3,
    {
      "sample": "hash"
    }
  ],
  "foo": "bar"
}

看看Awesome Print吧。将JSON字符串解析为Ruby Hash，然后用ap显示它，如下所示:

require "awesome_print"
require "json"

json = '{"holy": ["nested", "json"], "batman!": {"a": 1, "b": 2}}'

ap(JSON.parse(json))

通过以上，你会看到:

{
  "holy" => [
    [0] "nested",
    [1] "json"
  ],
  "batman!" => {
    "a" => 1,
    "b" => 2
  }
}

Awesome Print还会添加一些Stack Overflow无法显示的颜色。

我能想到的最简单的例子:

my_json = '{ "name":"John", "age":30, "car":null }'
puts JSON.pretty_generate(JSON.parse(my_json))

Rails控制台示例:

core dev 1555:0> my_json = '{ "name":"John", "age":30, "car":null }'
=> "{ \"name\":\"John\", \"age\":30, \"car\":null }"
core dev 1556:0> puts JSON.pretty_generate(JSON.parse(my_json))
{
  "name": "John",
  "age": 30,
  "car": null
}
=> nil

我在rails控制台中有一个JSON对象，并希望在控制台中很好地显示它(而不是像大量连接的字符串那样显示)，它简单如:

data.as_json
