if anyone is interested there is a similar tool (called "comp") but the queries are expressed with list comprehension syntax. It also allows to join data from json and xml. It has two modes: 1) as a commnad line ./comp -f commits.json,authors.txt '[ i.commits | i <- commits, a <- author, i.commits.author.name == a ]' 2) as a service to allow querying of the files through simple http interface ./comp -f commits.json,authors.tx -l :9090 curl -d '{"expr": "[ i.commits | i <- commits, a <- author, i.commits.author.name == a ]"}' http://localhost:9090/full http://localhost:9090/full or through an interactive console on http://localhost:9090/console http://localhost:9090/console disclosure: I'm a co-author, and happy to get a feedback or answer any questions :)
