I was able to accomplish this by adding a new alias to my .bashrc (or .bash_profile on a mac):
alias pp='python -mjson.tool'
Then, after reloading the .bashrc / .bash_profile configuration by opening a new terminal or by running
$ source ~/.bashrc
you can pipe curl output to the 'pp' alias as follows:
$ curl -XGET http://localhost:9200/_search | pp
