About:
otree is a command-line interface tool that renders complex data structures like JSON, YAML, and TOML into interactive, navigable tree widgets within the terminal. It provides a user-friendly way to inspect deeply nested configuration files and API responses without the need for a graphical interface. This utility enhances readability and simplifies debugging for developers working with structured data formats in a CLI environment.
Key Features:
  • Interactive TUI tree view for easy navigation
  • Support for JSON, YAML, and TOML formats
  • Keyboard-driven interface for efficient browsing
  • Syntax highlighting for improved readability
Use Cases:
  • Inspecting large JSON or YAML configuration files
  • Debugging API responses in terminal environments
  • Viewing nested data structures without opening a GUI
Alternatives:
  • jq – jq is for querying and transforming data, while otree focuses on interactive visualization and browsing.
  • yq – yq is similar to jq but for YAML/XML, whereas otree provides a visual tree rather than query processing.
  • fx – fx is an interactive JSON viewer, but otree supports multiple formats (YAML, TOML) and uses a distinct TUI tree widget.
