Convert JSON to HCL, and vice versa
历史
json2hcl is a small Go command-line converter for moving data between JSON and HashiCorp Configuration Language. Its niche is the Terraform-era need to translate machine-friendly JSON into a more readable HCL form without building a larger configuration system.
Kevin van Zonneveld published json2hcl in September 2016 around a workflow for an internal tool named Frey. The README says the authors wanted to store infrastructure recipes as HCL after converting from machine-readable JSON, YAML, or TOML, and it explicitly notes that the tool used existing HashiCorp libraries rather than inventing a parser.
The project soon added reverse conversion with the `-reverse` flag, exposing hcl2json behavior through the same executable. By June 25, 2025, the GitHub repository was archived; its README states that the original author no longer used it, while leaving the code available for forks.
Adoption appears to have been modest but durable in package-manager terms: the tool was packaged by Homebrew and Nix, and the repository accumulated hundreds of stars and forks before archival. Its presence in Homebrew reflects the small-CLI pattern where a narrow converter remains useful even after upstream development slows.
The canonical usage is Unix-pipeline oriented: feed JSON on standard input and receive HCL on standard output, or pass `-reverse` to convert HCL back to JSON. The README examples focus on Terraform-like `.tf.json` input and redirection to `.tf` files.
json2hcl is interesting because it captures a short period when HCL was becoming a preferred human-edited configuration language around HashiCorp tools, while JSON remained the common interchange format. For package collectors, it is a tiny bridge utility whose package-manager value is convenience rather than ecosystem size.
