yq: command-line YAML, JSON, XML, CSV and properties processor
I recently dug into the docs of jq and was surprised to find that, contrary to my prior belief based on shallow experience with it, jq’s expression aren’t merely a path syntax but apparently a turing complete language. I was blown away.<p>I wish MySQL and AWS could have figured out a way to adopt it, or a subset of it, rather than each using different ones. Now I have varying levels of knowledge for 4-5 variations of JSON path semantics/standards, it’s annoying.
