+# GDB Pretty Printer
+
+File [nlohmann-json.py](nlohmann-json.py) contains a pretty printer for GDB for JSON values of this library. It was originally published as [Gist](https://gist.github.com/ssbssa/60da5339c6e6036b2afce17de06050ea#file-nlohmann-json-py) by [Hannes Domani](https://github.com/ssbssa).
+
+## How to use
+
+- Add line
+
+ ```
+ source /path/to/nlohmann-json.py
+ ```
+
+ to `~/.gdbinit`. Note you must replace `/path/to` with whatever path you stored file `nlohmann-json.py`.
+- In GDB, debug as usual. When you want to pretty-print a JSON value `var`, type
+
+ ```
+ p -pretty on -array on -- var
+ ```
+
+ The result should look like
+
+ ```
+ $1 = std::map with 5 elements = {
+ ["Baptiste"] = std::map with 1 element = {
+ ["first"] = "second"
+ },
+ ["Emmanuel"] = std::vector of length 3, capacity 3 = {
+ 3,
+ "25",
+ 0.5
+ },
+ ["Jean"] = 0.7,
+ ["Zorg"] = std::map with 8 elements = {
+ ["array"] = std::vector of length 3, capacity 3 = {
+ 1,
+ 0,
+ 2
+ },
+ ["awesome_str"] = "bleh",
+ ["bool"] = true,
+ ["flex"] = 0.2,
+ ["float"] = 5.22,
+ ["int"] = 5,
+ ["nested"] = std::map with 1 element = {
+ ["bar"] = "barz"
+ },
+ ["trap "] = "you fell"
+ },
+ ["empty"] = nlohmann::detail::value_t::null
+ }
+ ```
+
+Tested with GDB 9.2. See [#1952](https://github.com/nlohmann/json/issues/1952) for more information. Please post questions there.
