Add parameters sort_keys=True and indent=4 to SerializeJSON to pretty print JSON output

Hi,

do you think it would be useful to add parameters sort_keys=True and
indent=4 to SerializeJSON to pretty print JSON output?

Like in Python JSON encoder/decoder

Thorsten

Sounds like a good idea, but it would be better (IMHO) to follow the stringify method from javascript:
JSON.stringify() - JavaScript | MDN https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/JSON/stringify> On 21 Apr 2016, at 12:41, thorsteneilers via Lucee lucee@googlegroups.com wrote:

The serialize method should not be confused with display methods for
output. The serialize function should only serialize the data. If you
want to pretty print the output that should be another method.

@Andrew I think that’s a tough call. From an efficiency and accuracy point
of view - I think it would make most sense to pretty print at the point of
serialization to avoid needing to re-parse. I’m not sure that adding
options around the format of serialization is necessarily at odds with the
purpose of a serialization method either - though I’m not 100% sold.On 21 April 2016 at 15:26, Andrew Penhorwood <@Andrew_Penhorwood> wrote:
