Config folder

The JSON Toolkit provides several options to help you create consistent naming and formatting. The root properties in each schema’s Config folder provide these consistency properties.

The schema Config folder is separate from the station Config folder and applies only to the parent schema.

  • Name Casing Rule conforms names to camel case or another style.
  • Name Spacing Rule defines a character to insert between words in a name, such as a space, hyphen, underscore, etc.
  • Date Format Pattern configures dates.
  • Numeric Precision configures the number of decimal digits to show on exported floating point numbers, values are rounded. Point facets are not used.
  • Use Escape Characters turns on and off the use of escape characters around symbols that otherwise would have special meaning. For example, when false, $20 becomes a space character.

The “Components” chapter documents the options for these properties.
