jid is an interactive command-line tool for incrementally drilling down into JSON data using jq-like and JMESPath filter queries. It provides real-time suggestions, auto-completion, and highlighted matching keys as you explore JSON from stdin or files.
Use cases
- interactively explore large json files in the terminal
- drill down into json api responses from curl
- build and test jmespath queries interactively
- extract a nested value from json with tab completion
- incrementally filter json piped from a command
When to choose
- you want to visually navigate json step by step instead of writing full jq queries
- you need auto-completion and suggestions while filtering json
- you want to test jmespath expressions against live json data
When to avoid
- you need non-interactive scripted json transformation - use jq instead
- you need to process yaml or other formats - jid is json-only
- you need to modify or rewrite json, not just query it
