HTML中的<pre>标记，与JSON一起使用。pretty_generate，将在视图中漂亮地呈现JSON。当我杰出的老板给我看这个时，我非常高兴:

<% if @data.present? %>
   <pre><%= JSON.pretty_generate(@data) %></pre>
<% 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"
}

将ActiveRecord对象转储为JSON(在Rails控制台中):

pp User.first.as_json

# => {
 "id" => 1,
 "first_name" => "Polar",
 "last_name" => "Bear"
}

漂亮的打印变体(Rails):

my_obj = {
  'array' => [1, 2, 3, { "sample" => "hash"}, 44455, 677778, nil ],
  foo: "bar", rrr: {"pid": 63, "state with nil and \"nil\"": false},
  wwww: 'w' * 74
}

require 'pp'
puts my_obj.as_json.pretty_inspect.
            gsub('=>', ': ').
            gsub(/"(?:[^"\\]|\\.)*"|\bnil\b/) {|m| m == 'nil' ? 'null' : m }.
            gsub(/\s+$/, "")

结果:

{"array": [1, 2, 3, {"sample": "hash"}, 44455, 677778, null],
 "foo": "bar",
 "rrr": {"pid": 63, "state with nil and \"nil\"": false},
 "wwww":
  "wwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww"}

我使用以下，因为我发现标题，状态和JSON输出有用 一组。调用例程是根据railscasts在http://railscasts.com/episodes/151-rack-middleware?autoplay=true上的推荐进行的

  class LogJson

  def initialize(app)
    @app = app
  end

  def call(env)
    dup._call(env)
  end

  def _call(env)
    @status, @headers, @response = @app.call(env)
    [@status, @headers, self]
  end

  def each(&block)
    if @headers["Content-Type"] =~ /^application\/json/
      obj = JSON.parse(@response.body)
      pretty_str = JSON.pretty_unparse(obj)
      @headers["Content-Length"] = Rack::Utils.bytesize(pretty_str).to_s
      Rails.logger.info ("HTTP Headers:  #{ @headers } ")
      Rails.logger.info ("HTTP Status:  #{ @status } ")
      Rails.logger.info ("JSON Response:  #{ pretty_str} ")
    end

    @response.each(&block)
  end
  end

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
