Usage

Usage: shift-query -j file.js query-pattern

$ shift-query test.js IdentifierExpression
[ IdentifierExpression { type: 'IdentifierExpression', name: 'require' },
  IdentifierExpression { type: 'IdentifierExpression', name: 'puppeteer' },
  IdentifierExpression { type: 'IdentifierExpression', name: 'browser' },
  IdentifierExpression { type: 'IdentifierExpression', name: 'page' },
  IdentifierExpression { type: 'IdentifierExpression', name: 'page' },
  IdentifierExpression { type: 'IdentifierExpression', name: 'page' },
  IdentifierExpression { type: 'IdentifierExpression', name: 'page' } ]

If a script is piped to shift-query then the second argument is treated as the query pattern.

$ tail +2 shift-query | shift-query IdentifierExpression
[ IdentifierExpression { type: 'IdentifierExpression', name: 'require' },

Query syntax

Sytax is from shift-query which is, in turn, from esquery. It follows CSS syntax very closely and if you are familiar writing CSS selectors you should pick this up quickly.
