echo '{"name": "Bangpypers", "location": "Bangalore"}' | python -m json.tool

In this command, what is this "json.tool" ?

I could not find "tool" in dir(json)

>>> import json
>>> dir(json)
['JSONDecoder', 'JSONEncoder', '__all__', '__author__', '__builtins__',
'__doc__', '__file__', '__name__', '__package__', '__path__',
'__version__', '_default_decoder', '_default_encoder', 'decoder', 'dump',
'dumps', 'encoder', 'load', 'loads', 'scanner']
