Useful jq resources

A collection of useful resources to help you master jq


Interactive jq tools

Provide some input and experiment with various jq filters to see what is achieved.

  • jq playground, a "try it online" experience.
  • ijq, interactive jq tool, like jqplay for the commandline.
  • jqp is another commandline tool -- it uses gojq as a backend which isn't 100% compatible with the original jq.

JSON

Other JSON processing tools

  • gron: "Flattens" JSON into a sequence of individual assignments, which makes it possible to use line-oriented tools (grep, etc) to process it.
  • jo: A small utility to create JSON objects from shell variables.
  • jello: jello is similar to jq except jello uses standard python dict and list syntax.
