Consider support JSON from the filesystem

[ggerard]

Tried dragging a file onto the URL and it bounced back.

Tried /path/to/file without success.

Tried file:https:///path/to/file without success.

I dragged file from Finder to Address field.

And get this: http:https://i.imgur.com/mNhYz.png

Hmm. Your file has a .json extension. Mine did not.

Perhaps that is the root of it.

Will try tomorrow.

I don't think so. I never wrote code about any file extension.
Try it with any file. It will work :)

Just don't forget drag it to address field. You cannot drop it on content field

Okay, here's the pathology.

Open VisualJSON

Drag a file from the Finder onto the Address field.

On mine, it bounces back.

Click the mouse in the Address field (a blue border will appear around the text box).

Drag a file from the Finder onto the Address field.

The path to the file will show in the Address field.

100% repeatable on my two Mountain Lion machines with AppStore and OS updates applied.

Oh, it don't work if VisualJSON is background.

That doesn't seem to be the case either.

--- This one fails.

Launch VisualJSON.

In Finder, begin dragging a JSON file.

Command-Tab to start going through running applications until VisualJSON is selected and release the Command-Tab.

VisualJSON is now in the menu bar.

The cursor still shows the green "+" with the file still in tow.

Drop onto the address field.

The file will bounce back.

--- This one works

Launch VisualJSON.

Select the Address field (this is the only difference from the above script)

In Finder, begin dragging a JSON file.

Command-Tab to start going through running applications until VisualJSON is selected and release the Command-Tab.

VisualJSON is now in the menu bar.

Drop onto the address field.

The file path show in the address field.

I found it works, but only if you clear the contents of the address field and switch to GET before dragging the file over.

Any chance of updating so you can just hit the window with the file? Or the app icon? That could set GET and the address field.
