JSON output

The --json flag, and what it prints.

Most commands take --json and print JSON instead of a table.

$ oxidepm --json status
[
  {
    "id": 1,
    "name": "mailer",
    "mode": "cmd",
    "pid": null,
    "restarts": 3,
    "status": "errored",
    "cpu_percent": 0.0,
    "memory_bytes": 0,
    "uptime_secs": 0
  }
]

A running app has "status": "running": the table calls it online. tags is present when the app has any.

Other output

oxidepm --json show <name> prints the same fields plus the command, working directory, arguments, last_exit_code, healthy and the two policy markers.
oxidepm --json <command> --dry-run prints the plan: op, a decision, an items list with one entry per app (id, name, action, detail, order) and warnings.
oxidepm --json audit prints one audit record per line.

An error is printed as text, with a non-zero exit code, in --json mode too. The stable E_ code of an error is on the daemon's socket, in the audit log and in the adapter protocol; see Error codes.
