libjq-js v1.0.2

Disclaimer

This package is still very new and doesn't support all of the JQ functionality that jq-web provides, but aims to be a light-weight alternative. Instead of wrapping the entire JQ cli like jq-web, we have a custom C wrapper that make calls to the libjq C API directly.

Installation

yarn add libjq-js
or
npm install libjq-js

API

jq.json(json: object, filter: string): Promise<any>

Example

import jq from "libjq-js";
jq.json({ foo: 5 }, ".foo").then(res => console.log(res));

Outputs

5
