Jex - JSON/YAML interactive explorer

Why?

  • In a world that JSON/YAML config files take over the world and JQ is not your taste, use the language you already know to explore the data. Whether it is Python/Hylang or ES6 on your favorite web browser developer tool.

  • Fighting the bad practice of using online JSON pretifier/formatter, which is prone to leak credentials contained in JSON/YAML (e.g K8S secret output).

Install

pip install jex

Features

  • Supports input JSON/YAML.

Explorers

Supports exploring via

  • Python interpreter
  • Hylang interpreter hy
  • Interactive Ruby Shell irb
  • Node node
  • Web browser

Usage

  • Just pipe the jex after the command that outputs JSON/YAML.
$ curl -ssL https://api.github.com/users/hvnsweeting/repos | jex
  • Use jex -w to open data on your browser, open web console and access the data via data.

Firefox

Firefox DOM

  • Use jex -i to open simple python interpreter - in same process - useful on no GUI environment.

  • Use jex would open a new window for interactive exploring the data via name data in Python interactive interpreter: This pre-import pprint, all functions in itertools, functools, operator stdlib. Provide --repl LANG to invoke other language interpreters.
