Forget about jq. JSONata is much more powerful - http://docs.jsonata.org/overview.html

jq is a single binary which I can easily just drop into a remote server or throw into my ~/.local/bin, where as JSONata requires NPM.

Yea what's going on here, you have a couple of other comments pushing Jsonata?

You an author or something?

[matthewtovbin]

Not at all. After using jq in the past and seeing both it's potential and flaws I was looking for something more powerful and easy to use, so I stumbled upon JSONata and became a fan.

It doesn't appear to have a CLI, which is the whole point of jq
