# 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"
},
"ID": "y2djkhiujf83u33",
"OrigID": "UYOJVTUW00Q1RzTDA",
"IsBucket" : false,
"IsDir" : false,
"MimeType" : "application/octet-stream",
"ModTime" : "2017-05-31T16:15:57.034468261+01:00",
"Name" : "file.txt",
"Encrypted" : "v0qpsdq8anpci8n929v3uu9338",
"EncryptedPath" : "kja9098349023498/v0qpsdq8anpci8n929v3uu9338",
"Path" : "full/path/goes/here/file.txt",
"Size" : 6,
"Tier" : "hot",
}
If `--hash` is not specified the Hashes property won't be emitted. The
types of hash can be specified with the `--hash-type` parameter (which
may be repeated). If `--hash-type` is set then it implies `--hash`.
If `--no-modtime` is specified then ModTime will be blank. This can
speed things up on remotes where reading the ModTime takes an extra
request (e.g. s3, swift).
If `--no-mimetype` is specified then MimeType will be blank. This can
speed things up on remotes where reading the MimeType takes an extra
request (e.g. s3, swift).
If `--encrypted` is not specified the Encrypted won't be emitted.
If `--dirs-only` is not specified files in addition to directories are
returned
If `--files-only` is not specified directories in addition to the files
will be returned.
If `--metadata` is set then an additional Metadata key will be returned.
This will have metdata in rclone standard format as a JSON object.
if `--stat` is set then a single JSON blob will be returned about the
item pointed to. This will return an error if the item isn't found.
However on bucket based backends (like s3, gcs, b2, azureblob etc) if
the item isn't found it will return an empty directory as it isn't
possible to tell empty directories from missing directories there.
The Path field will only show folders below the remote path being listed.
If "remote:path" contains the file "subfolder/file.txt", the Path for "file.txt"
will be "subfolder/file.txt", not "remote:path/subfolder/file.txt".
When used without `--recursive` the Path will always be the same as Name.
If the directory is a bucket in a bucket-based backend, then
"IsBucket" will be set to true. This key won't be present unless it is
"true".
The time is in RFC3339 format with up to nanosecond precision. The
number of decimal digits in the seconds will depend on the precision
that the remote can hold the times, so if times are accurate to the
nearest millisecond (e.g. Google Drive) then 3 digits will always be
shown ("2017-05-31T16:15:57.034+01:00") whereas if the times are
accurate to the nearest second (Dropbox, Box, WebDav, etc.) no digits
will be shown ("2017-05-31T16:15:57+01:00").
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.
Any of the filtering options can be applied to this command.
There are several related list commands
* `ls` to list size and path of objects only
* `lsl` to list modification time, size and path of objects only
* `lsd` to list directories only
* `lsf` to list objects and directories in easy to parse format
* `lsjson` to list objects and directories in JSON format
`ls`,`lsl`,`lsd` are designed to be human-readable.
`lsf` is designed to be human and machine-readable.
`lsjson` is designed to be machine-readable.
Note that `ls` and `lsl` recurse by default - use `--max-depth 1` to stop the recursion.
The other list commands `lsd`,`lsf`,`lsjson` do not recurse by default - use `-R` to make them recurse.
Listing a non-existent directory will produce an error except for
remotes which can't have empty directories (e.g. s3, swift, or gcs -
the bucket-based remotes).
```
rclone lsjson remote:path [flags]
```
## Options
```
--dirs-only Show only directories in the listing
--encrypted Show the encrypted names
--files-only Show only files in the listing
--hash Include hashes in the output (may take longer)
--hash-type stringArray Show only this hash type (may be repeated)
-h, --help help for lsjson
--no-mimetype Don't read the mime type (can speed things up)
--no-modtime Don't read the modification time (can speed things up)
--original Show the ID of the underlying Object
-R, --recursive Recurse into the listing
--stat Just return the info for the pointed to file
```
