UniQuery

Unified query language for various commonly used data representation formats (JSON, XML, YAML, etc.)

Usage

Install Go and run go run cmd/uniquery/main.go -h to get information about available flags and their meaning.

Please see query examples for rough query syntax explanation.

Format	Support	Notes
JSON	✔️ Yes	Works according to tests.
YAML	❓ Partial	Not very well tested yet.
XML	❌ No	More complicated than JSON and YAML.
CSV	❌ No	Support is not currently planned.

Consider the following JSON file users.json, which maps real names to nicknames.

{
    "alice80": "Alice Yang",
    "bob12": "Bob Jacobs",
    "tank": "Charlie Peterson"
}

Query	Result
empty query	root element / whole data structure
`alice80`	`"Alice Yang"`
`tank`	`"Charlie Peterson"`
`*`	`["Alice Yang", "Bob Jacobs", "Charlie Peterson"]`
`alice80.`	root element (parent of `alice80`)
