I followed this guide to download a JSON object from the browser. This is what my code looks like:
var json = this.getEditorJSON(); var data = "text/json;charset=utf-8," + encodeURIComponent(JSON.stringify(json)); var a = document.createElement('a'); a.href = 'data:' + data; a.download = 'resume.json'; a.innerHTML = 'download JSON'; var container = document.getElementById('container'); container.appendChild(a); a.click(); a.remove();
But this gives me a single line file that is hard to read. Is there an easy way to format it as a readable JSON file, with newlines and indentation?

Answer
The JSON.stringify
has three parameters, you can use third parameter for that
JSON.stringify(json, null, 4);
