Build Status

YAML wrapper for the fantastic jq tool.

go get github.com/gomatic/yq

usage

yq [options...] filter -- [files...]

Notice the --. It's mandatory so yq can distinguish the files from the options and filter. It also allows yq to determine that input is coming from stdin.

issues

Since jq can output JSON that isn't well-formed, such output can't easily be converted back to yaml. In such cases, the JSON will be output.
