Love this. Always interesting to see novel ways of querying data in the terminal, and I agree that jq's syntax is difficult to remember.
I actually prefer nu(shell) for this though. On the lobste.rs thread for this blog, a user shared this:
Haha, I tried querying in Nushell before reading this and I was sure there was a better way. And indeed there is (especially since I was missing
uniq
). I'm still learning the available operators, but I enjoy the shell a lot, as well as its promised capabilities.I really like Nushell. I would not run it as a daily driver currently, as it mostly doesn't win me over from Fish, feature-wise, but I love having it available for anything CLI date pipeline work I need to do.
