From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Cool, so jq but using sql instead of custom syntax. I wonder if it can output to plain text. That is what I usually use jq for.

jq is mot custom syntax though, it is just JSONPath standarsld. Which is also used to query JSON in JSON fields in MySQL for instance.

That's neat! Reminds me of steampipe which provides a sql interface to apis. You can also use it for csv, json and yaml.

Nice thing about steampipe is that it can look like a postres db to any sql client.

I finally build something nontrivial in jq, then this happens...
