json.sh
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.
