Data Processing
Query, filter, and transform structured data (JSON, YAML, TOML) efficiently from the command line.
Tools
| Tool | Command | Use For |
|---|---|---|
| jq | jq '.key' file.json |
JSON processing |
| yq | yq '.key' file.yaml |
YAML/TOML processing |
jq Essentials
# Extract single field
jq '.name' package.json
# Extract nested field
jq '.scripts.build' package.json
# Extract from array
jq '.dependencies[0]' package.json
# Extract multiple fields
jq '{name, version}' package.json
# Navigate deeply nested
jq '.data.users[0].profile.email' response.json
# Filter by condition
jq '.users[] | select(.active == true)' data.json
# Transform each element
jq '.users | map({id, name})' data.json
# Count elements
jq '.users | length' data.json
# Raw string output
jq -r '.name' package.json
yq Essentials
# Extract field
yq '.name' config.yaml
# Extract nested
yq '.services.web.image' docker-compose.yml
# List all keys
yq 'keys' config.yaml
# List all service names (Docker Compose)
yq '.services | keys' docker-compose.yml
# Get container images (K8s)
yq '.spec.template.spec.containers[].image' deployment.yaml
# Update value (in-place)
yq -i '.version = "2.0.0"' config.yaml
# TOML to JSON
yq -p toml -o json '.' config.toml
