遵循JSON-P 1.0规范(JSR-353)，对于给定的JsonStructure (JsonObject或JsonArray)，一个更当前的解决方案可能是这样的:

import java.io.StringWriter;
import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;

import javax.json.Json;
import javax.json.JsonStructure;
import javax.json.JsonWriter;
import javax.json.JsonWriterFactory;
import javax.json.stream.JsonGenerator;

public class PrettyJson {

    private static JsonWriterFactory FACTORY_INSTANCE;

    public static String toString(final JsonStructure status) {

        final StringWriter stringWriter = new StringWriter();

        final JsonWriter jsonWriter = getPrettyJsonWriterFactory()
                .createWriter(stringWriter);

        jsonWriter.write(status);
        jsonWriter.close();

        return stringWriter.toString();
    }

    private static JsonWriterFactory getPrettyJsonWriterFactory() {
        if (null == FACTORY_INSTANCE) {
            final Map<String, Object> properties = new HashMap<>(1);
            properties.put(JsonGenerator.PRETTY_PRINTING, true);
            FACTORY_INSTANCE = Json.createWriterFactory(properties);
        }
        return FACTORY_INSTANCE;
    }

}

如果您正在使用用于JSON处理(JSR-353)实现的Java API，那么您可以指定JsonGenerator。当您创建JsonGeneratorFactory时，PRETTY_PRINTING属性。

下面的例子最初发表在我的博客文章中。

import java.util.*;
import javax.json.Json;
import javax.json.stream.*;

Map<String, Object> properties = new HashMap<String, Object>(1);
properties.put(JsonGenerator.PRETTY_PRINTING, true);
JsonGeneratorFactory jgf = Json.createGeneratorFactory(properties);
JsonGenerator jg = jgf.createGenerator(System.out);

jg.writeStartObject()                    // {
    .write("name", "Jane Doe")           //    "name":"Jane Doe",
    .writeStartObject("address")         //    "address":{
        .write("type", 1)                //        "type":1,
        .write("street", "1 A Street")   //        "street":"1 A Street",
        .writeNull("city")               //        "city":null,
        .write("verified", false)        //        "verified":false
    .writeEnd()                          //    },
    .writeStartArray("phone-numbers")    //    "phone-numbers":[
        .writeStartObject()              //        {
            .write("number", "555-1111") //            "number":"555-1111",
            .write("extension", "123")   //            "extension":"123"
        .writeEnd()                      //        },
        .writeStartObject()              //        {
            .write("number", "555-2222") //            "number":"555-2222",
            .writeNull("extension")      //            "extension":null
        .writeEnd()                      //        }
    .writeEnd()                          //    ]
.writeEnd()                              // }
.close();

这将是一个公共方法，用于打印对象的漂亮版本(你需要安装Gson依赖项:

import com.google.gson.GsonBuilder;
...

public void printMe(){
    Gson gson = new GsonBuilder().setPrettyPrinting().create();
    String prettyJSON = gson.toJson(this);
    System.out.println(printable);
}

GSON似乎支持这一点，尽管我不知道您是否想从正在使用的库切换。

来自用户指南:

Gson gson = new GsonBuilder().setPrettyPrinting().create();
String jsonOutput = gson.toJson(someObject);

所以我也很喜欢json-simple lib，并研究了如何打印它的输出。不幸的是，虽然这是一个悬而未决的问题，但我找不到它的任何代码。所以我想我应该试一试，这是我想出的(使用他们自己的来源)..

它适用于JSONObject和JSONArray，即使它没有依赖于他们..因为这些是常规的Map和List对象。(事实代码是从同一个库中提取的)。

I also use the org.json.simple package. I have simply coded the formatter, but since I don't have nulls, numbers or booleans in my JSON objects in the program that I wrote, I only coded for strings, objects and arrays. If anyone is interested, let this just be in the public domain. You are welcome to add the missing data types (where it says in the comment "it's a string"). Also, you can add the indentation as a parameter whereas mine is just two spaces. Please reshare after you've tested your improvements.

用法： printJsonObject（jsonObject， “”）;

功能:

    public static void printJsonObject(JSONObject object, String prefix) {
        boolean notFirst = false;
        System.out.println(prefix + "{");
        for (Object key : object.keySet()) {
            if (notFirst) {
                System.out.println(", ");
            }
            notFirst = true;
            Object value = object.get(key);
            System.out.print(prefix + "  " + "\"" + key + "\"" + ": ");
            if (value instanceof JSONObject) {
                printJsonObject((JSONObject) value, prefix + "  ");
            } else if (value instanceof JSONArray) {
                printJsonArray((JSONArray) value, prefix + "  ");
            } else {  // it's a string
                System.out.print("\"" + value + "\"");
            }
        }
        System.out.println("");
        System.out.print(prefix + "}");
    }

    public static void printJsonArray(JSONArray array, String prefix) {
        boolean notFirst = false;
        System.out.println("[");
        for (Object item : array) {
            if (notFirst) {
                System.out.println(", ");
            }
            notFirst = true;
            if (item instanceof JSONObject) {
                printJsonObject((JSONObject) item, prefix + "  ");
            } else if (item instanceof JSONArray) {
                printJsonArray((JSONArray) item, prefix + "  ");
            } else {
                System.out.print(prefix + "  " + "\"" + item + "\"");
            }
        }
        System.out.println("");
        System.out.print(prefix + "]");
    }
