aq
Extend jq
for any data format.
Currently supports JSON, TOML, and YAML.
📦 Installation
Pre-built binaries for 64-bit Linux, macOS, and Windows are provided. The
following script can be used to automatically detect your host system, download
the required artifact, and extract the aq
binary to the given directory.
curl --proto '=https' -fLsS https://rossmacarthur.github.io/install/crate.sh \
| bash -s -- --repo rossmacarthur/aq --to ~/.local/bin
Alternatively, you can download an artifact directly from the the releases page.
Cargo
aq
can be installed from Crates.io
using Cargo, the Rust package manager.
cargo install aq-cli
🤸 Usage
By default aq
behaves just like jq
and operates on JSON.
$ echo '{"foo":{"bar": 1337}}' | aq .foo
{
"bar": 1337
}
But it also accepts options to specify the input and output format. For example with a TOML input and a JSON output:
$ echo '[foo]\nbar = 1337' | aq -i toml -o json .foo
{
"bar": 1337
}
If not provided, the output format defaults to the input format. Additionally,
you can use j
for JSON, t
for TOML, and y
for YAML for maximum brevity.
$ echo '[foo]\nbar = 1337' | aq -it .foo
bar = 1337
