> ### _Simply remove JSON keys via CLI command._

## Installation

```bash
pip install remove-json-keys
```

## Usage

Run the CLI:
```bash
remove-json-keys [options] # or remove-json
```

If no options are passed, the CLI will:
1. Prompt for keys to delete 
2. Auto-discover closest child `json_dir`
3. Delete keys from found JSON files

_Note: Key/values can span multiple lines and have any amount of whitespace between symbols._

## Options

Options can be set by using command-line arguments:

| Option                 | Description                                                                     | Example
| ---------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- | -----------------------------
| `-d`, `--json-dir`     | Name of the folder containing JSON files (default: `_locales`)                  | `--json-dir=data`
| `-k`, `--keys`         | Comma-separated list of keys to remove                                          | `--keys=app_DESC,err_NOT_FOUND`
| `init`, `-i`, `--init` | Create .remove-json.config.json5 in project root to store default settings      |
| `-n`, `--no-wizard`    | Skip interactive prompts during start-up                                        |
| `-h`, `--help`         | Show help screen                                                                |

## Examples

Remove `author` key from JSON files found in default `_locales` dir:

```bash
remove-json-keys --keys=author  # prompts for more keys to remove
```

Remove `info_SUCCESS` key from JSON files found in `messages` dir:

```bash
remove-json-keys -n --keys=err_NOT_FOUND --json-dir=messages  # no prompts
```

Remove `app_DESC` + `app_VER` keys from JSON files found in `data` dir:

```bash
remove-json -n -k app_DESC,app_VER -d data  # no prompts
```

## Config file

Run `remove-json init` to create `.remove-json.config.json5` in your project root to set default options.

Example defaults:

```json5
{
  "json_dir": "_locales", // name of the folder containing JSON files
  "keys": "",             // keys to remove (e.g. "app_NAME,author")
  "force": false,         // force overwrite existing config file when using init
  "no_wizard": false      // skip interactive prompts during start-up
}
```

_Note: CLI arguments always override config file._
