One thing to look at
- no licenseNo license file was found in the repository. Code published without one is not open source by default, so using it at work is a question for whoever answers licensing questions where you are.
What its author says it does
Copied from the file, not written here
Process JSON with jq and YAML/TOML with yq. Filter, transform, query structured data efficiently. Triggers on: parse JSON, extract from YAML, query config, Docker Compose, K8s manifests, GitHub Actions workflows, package.json, filter data.
The file declares its own license as MIT. That is the author’s claim about this one file, and it is not the same thing as the license GitHub reports for the repository, which is listed with the other numbers below.

Data Processing
Query, filter, and transform structured data (JSON, YAML, TOML) efficiently from the command line.
Tools
| Tool | Command | Use For |
|---|---|---|
| jq | jq '.key' file.json | JSON processing |
| yq | yq '.key' file.yaml | YAML/TOML processing |
jq Essentials
# Extract single field
jq '.name' package.json
# Extract nested field
jq '.scripts.build' package.json
# Extract from array
jq '.dependencies[0]' package.json
# Extract multiple fields
jq '{name, version}' package.json
# Navigate deeply nested
jq '.data.users[0].profile.email' response.json
# Filter by condition
jq '.users[] | select(.active == true)' data.json
# Transform each element
jq '.users | map({id, name})' data.json
# Count elements
jq '.users | length' data.json
# Raw string output
jq -r '.name' package.json
yq Essentials
# Extract field
yq '.name' config.yaml
# Extract nested
yq '.services.web.image' docker-compose.yml
# List all keys
yq 'keys' config.yaml
# List all service names (Docker Compose)
yq '.services | keys' docker-compose.yml
# Get container images (K8s)
yq '.spec.template.spec.containers[].image' deployment.yaml
# Update value (in-place)
yq -i '.version = "2.0.0"' config.yaml
# TOML to JSON
yq -p toml -o json '.' config.toml
Quick Reference
| Task | jq | yq |
|---|---|---|
| Get field | jq '.key' | yq '.key' |
| Array element | jq '.[0]' | yq '.[0]' |
| Filter array | jq '.[] | select(.x)' | yq '.[] | select(.x)' |
| Transform | jq 'map(.x)' | yq 'map(.x)' |
| Count | jq 'length' | yq 'length' |
| Keys | jq 'keys' | yq 'keys' |
| Pretty print | jq '.' | yq '.' |
| Compact | jq -c | yq -o json -I0 |
| Raw output | jq -r | yq -r |
| In-place edit | - | yq -i |
When to Use
- Reading package.json dependencies
- Parsing Docker Compose configurations
- Analyzing Kubernetes manifests
- Processing GitHub Actions workflows
- Extracting data from API responses
