I'm lazy, ahem, very busy so I'm still using a set of plugins that I wrote some time ago: https://github.com/andreacampi/knife-export-plugins

I'm not sure anymore that JSON is the right thing for me, but it may help you :)

Very cool plugins.  I can think of some other uses for these, but I don't see how these will help me compare server cookbook versions to my local repo versions.  The 3 plugins you have work with data bags, nodes, and roles.

Uh, ahem, right, I read too quickly and thought you wanted those too… Sorry for the noise.

Maybe you could use health_inspector and strip it down to only deal with cookbooks, and use these for roles etc?
