Proposal: Add option to emit paket.lock as JSON
See original GitHub issueWhat
Add an option to Paket that changes to format of paket.lock to JSON
Why?
The exact use case for me is to parse the paket.lock file to generate Bazel targets for each NuGet package.
If the lock file would be in JSON it makes it easier for other tools to parse the lock file since JSON is supported
by all programming/scripting languages.
Other use cases:
- Parse the lock file to send to dependency analysis tools

Big 👍 from me on this one, I know that having this would make efforts like @TheAngryByrd’s attempted integration with Dependabot easier, for example.
@forki we could potentially do it in a staged fashion as well, where the lock file could be the output of a command (paket show lock file --json) while keeping the existing file as the source of truth. This might help to prove out the formatting/syntax, before committing to it as the full lock file format.
