Very cool. Going to play with this. Thank you! I couldn’t wrap my head around jq so this is lovely.
This is pretty sweet! I always have to look up jq docs if I want to do anything complex, but your pipe model seems more intuitive. Also, I love that there's both a library and a CLI.
The comparison section should probably include JSONPath, which for example PostgreSQL uses for this.
And jsquery, an extension for searching nested jsonb objects/arrays in postgres.
but congratulations on working to break out of the existing flawed paradigms like sql. at least you have composition.
i'd love to hear more about your thoughts on pipes. Any particular reason they don't sit right with you?
I like the pipes approach. Clear syntax makes a difference.
oh, its not the end of the world. thinking on this is I think its that its procedural (how not what). I guess I still really like the notion of programming as unification for this kind of thing.
I think some SQL subset for json would just suffice...easy to read and well known as well.
