|
json.sh is a very portable JSON parser--
|
|
|
|
|
it should work in just about any shell you throw at it.
|
|
|
|
|
Right now, it can only parse and output variables etc
|
|
|
|
|
in a JSON file in a more script-friendly form, but write
|
|
|
|
|
support will be added later.

Usage
|
|
|
|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
|
To use json.sh, you can simply run `json.sh` with a filename as an argument.
|
|
|
|
|
Here's an example command and it's output:
|
|
|
|
|
`sh json.sh example.json`
|
|
|
|
|
`
|
|
|
|
|
/animals
|
|
|
|
|
/animals/pig
|
|
|
|
|
/animals/pig/tail
|
|
|
|
|
/animals/pig/tail = curly
|
|
|
|
|
/animals/pig/nose
|
|
|
|
|
/animals/pig/nose = adorable
|
|
|
|
|
/animals/sheep
|
|
|
|
|
/animals/sheep/tail
|
|
|
|
|
/animals/sheep/tail = short
|
|
|
|
|
/animals/sheep/nose
|
|
|
|
|
/animals/sheep/nose = ugly
|
|
|
|
|
`
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are also a few useful arguments you should keep note of:
|
|
|
|
|
| argument | description |
|
|
|
|
|
| --- | --- |
|
|
|
|
|
| `-v $string` | Only print variables with the name `$string` |
|
|
|
|
|
| `-s $string` | Only print the value of the variable `$string` |
|
|
|
|
|
| `-V $string` | Only print variables with the value `$string` |
|
|
|
|
|
| `-o $string` | Only print the object `$string` |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
With `-v` and `-s`, for example, `$string` could be anything from `tail` to `/pig/tail` to `/animals/pig/tail`.
|
|
|
|
|
Same syntax goes for `-o`. `-V` is the only odd one out-- it's `$string` needs to be a variable's value, like `adorable` from `/pig/nose`.
