Did you try the latest code to see if this problem got fixed?

Tried, but the problem still

yazi --debug output

Describe the bug

Opening/previewing regular json files works just fine. However, I have a json file which is actually a "New Line Delimited JSON text data" and this one can neither be opened (pressing "o" / "Enter" does nothing) or previewed (see screenshot). Works fine with Lf.

• test-1.json

{
  "test": 1,
  "test2": 2
}{
  "test": "test",
  "test2": {
    "test": 1
  }
}

% file test-1.json
test-1.json: New Line Delimited JSON text data

% mimetype -bL test-1.json
application/json

Manually editing the formatting to turn the file into a regular json file solves the issue:

• test-2.json

[
  {
    "test": 1,
    "test2": 2
  },
  {
    "test": "test",
    "test2": {
      "test": 1
    }
  }
]

% file test-2.json
test-2.json: JSON text data

% mimetype -bL test-2.json
application/json

Expected Behavior

"New Line Delimited JSON text data" files are opened/previewed just fine like regular JSON files.

To Reproduce

1. Create a file.json with the following content:

   {
   "test": 1,
   "test2": 2
   }{
   "test": "test",
   "test2": {
   "test": 1
   }
   }

2. Open yazi and highlight file.json: no preview
3. Press either "o" or "" to open the file: nothing happens

Configuration

can reproduce without ~/.config/yazi directory (stock config)

Anything else?

~/.local/state/yazi/yazi.log is empty

% mimetype -bL test-1.json

What is the mimetype program? Is it an alias for file(1) (which is used by Yazi)? What does file -bL test-2.json output?

[xfzv]

% mimetype -bL test-1.json

What is the mimetype program? Is it an alias for file(1) (which is used by Yazi)?

I'm using Gentoo:

% qfile mimetype
dev-perl/File-MimeInfo: /usr/bin/mimetype

% qlist -Iv dev-perl/File-MimeInfo                                                                                           
dev-perl/File-MimeInfo-0.330.0

% mimetype --version                                                                                                
mimetype 0.33

What does file -bL test-2.json output?

% file -bL test-2.json
JSON text data

% file -bL test-1.json                                                                                      
New Line Delimited JSON text data

[sxyazi]

Now what's the output of file -bL --mime-type test-1.json and file -bL --mime-type test-2.json?

[xfzv]

% file -bL --mime-type test-1.json
application/x-ndjson

% file -bL --mime-type test-2.json
application/json

[xfzv]

The following allows me to open the file with either <o> or <Enter>:

# ~/.config/yazi/yazi.toml

[open]
rules = [
# ..
{ mime = "application/{json,x-ndjson}", use = [
    "edit",
    "reveal",
  ] },
# ..
]

but preview is still not working with:

# ~/.config/yazi/yazi.toml

previewers = [
  # ..
  # JSON
  { mime = "application/{json,x-ndjson}", run = "json" },
  # ..
]

[sxyazi]

Thanks for the reporting, should be fixed in https://github.com/sxyazi/yazi/pull/1190, please give it a try (make sure you're using the default Yazi config)

[xfzv]

Thank you! Can confirm it works fine now with https://github.com/sxyazi/yazi/commit/696dcf2668770b09839424a825b06d2ff7556b1f
