Open a Chrome profile based on email-address from data in chrome://local-state/ JSON format

chrome-profiles.sh

# To get a list of Chrome profiles in JSON format use this URL in your Chrome browser:
#     chrome://local-state/
# Save the content to local-state.json and then:

cat local-state.json| jq '.profile.info_cache | to_entries | .[] | [{person:.value.gaia_given_name, label:.value.name, email:.value.user_name, profile:.key}]'
cat local-state.json| jq '.profile.info_cache | to_entries | .[] | select(.value.user_name=="aculich@berkeley.edu") | [{person:.value.gaia_given_name, label:.value.name, email:.value.user_name, profile:.key}]'

# jq-cheetsheet.md
# https://gist.github.com/olih/f7437fb6962fb3ee9fe95bda8d2c8fa4

# This outputs an array of objects with the Profile Name, Email, and Person
# along with the name of the Profile Directory as one of the values

# Then you can use it to find the corresponding Chrome profile directory
# based on the email address of the profile
open -n -a "Google Chrome" --args --profile-directory="Profile 1" --new-window
