I think integration into jq would be both powerful and sufficient.
- hnlmorg 10mo agoPowerful but not sufficient. There’s plenty of us who don’t use jq for various reasons.
- jcims 10mo agoLLMs have allowed me to start using jq for more than pretty printing JSON.
- ruuda 10mo agoGive https://rcl-lang.org/#intuitive-json-queries https://rcl-lang.org/#intuitive-json-queries a try! It can fill a similar role, but the syntax is very similar to Python/TypeScript/Rust, so you don’t need an LLM to write the query for you.
- jcims 10mo agoNice! Thanks!
- hnlmorg 9mo agoThe issue isn’t jq’s syntax. It’s that I already use other tools that fill that niche and have done since as long as jq has been a thing. And frankly, I personally believe the other tools are superior so I don’t want to fallback to jq just because someone on HN tells me to.
