## rclone lsjson

List directories and objects in the path in JSON format.

### Synopsis


List directories and objects in the path in JSON format.

The output is an array of Items, where each Item looks like this

   {
      "Hashes" : {
         "SHA-1" : "f572d396fae9206628714fb2ce00f72e94f2258f",
         "MD5" : "b1946ac92492d2347c6235b4d2611184",
         "DropboxHash" : "ecb65bb98f9d905b70458986c39fcbad7715e5f2fcc3b1f07767d7c83e2438cc"
      },
      "IsDir" : false,
      "ModTime" : "2017-05-31T16:15:57.034468261+01:00",
      "Name" : "file.txt",
      "Path" : "full/path/goes/here/file.txt",
      "Size" : 6
   }

If --hash is not specified the the Hashes property won't be emitted.

If --no-modtime is specified then ModTime will be blank.

The time is in RFC3339 format with nanosecond precision.

The whole output can be processed as a JSON blob, or alternatively it
can be processed line by line as each item is written one to a line.


```
rclone lsjson remote:path [flags]
```

### Options

      --hash         Include hashes in the output (may take longer).
  -h, --help         help for lsjson
      --no-modtime   Don't read the modification time (can speed things up).
