jq is like sed for JSON data - you can use it to slice and filter and map and transform structured data with the same ease that sed, awk, grep and friends let you play with text. Visit jq manual to learn more about its capabilities.
jqi facilitates the work with jq by wrapping it in a nice graphical user inteface and adds more functionality, which boost your productivity while querying & processing JSON data, for example: importing JSON from clipboard, files or even from network using cURL command, rich display of the imported JSON data with the ability to expand/collapse it, saving jq programs history in memory, exporting jq program output to JSON file and more.
jqi is currently available only for Mac OSX, but will be soon available for Linux & Windows as well.
- Use keyboard shortcuts to control JQI. Hover with your mouse on a button and see it's hotkey.
- Open JSON file right from your teminal:
open /Applications/jqi.app --args -f _JSON_FILE_PATH_
