jdaddy.vim

Check out these must have mappings for working with JSON in Vim:

• aj provides a text object for the outermost JSON object, array, string,
  number, or keyword.
• gqaj “pretty prints” (wraps/indents/sorts keys/otherwise cleans up) the
  JSON construct under the cursor.
• gwaj takes the JSON object on the clipboard and extends it into the JSON
  object under the cursor.

There are also ij variants that target innermost rather than outermost JSON
construct.

Installation

If you don’t have a preferred installation method, I recommend
installing pathogen.vim, and
then simply copy and paste:

cd ~/.vim/bundle
git clone git://github.com/tpope/vim-jdaddy.git
