Pretty-printed JSON SBOM

[marcelstoer]

I didn't see the documentation mention how to get a pretty-printed JSON SBOM out of cdxgen. ChatGPT "confirmed" that this is not (or no longer?) available. Is it right?

The workaround of course would be to send it through jq e.g. cdxgen ..... && jq . target/sbom-compact.json > target/sbom.json.

cdxgen >=11.2.3 supports pretty print. Pass the argument --json-pretty. cdxgenGPT is not answering the question with the new answer yet. Will test tomorrow.

Thanks for this new feature!

Huh? Sorry, I don't understand.
