Great it works very well with adding --silent option in curl
it works! tkz, great job!
{ "array": [ "foo", "bar" ], "other": "entry", "page": 1 }
what do I need to do, to get 'foo' and 'bar' ?
currently jsonValue array
returns only foo
I would advise to use jq, like this : cat file.json | jq .array would give:
[
"foo",
"bar"
]
Small modification to display only one result for our $KEY.
awk -F"[,:}]" '{for(i=1;i<=NF;i++){if($i~/\042'$KEY'\042/){print $(i+1)}}}' | tr -d '"' | sed -e 's/^[[:space:]]*//'
But... How to display whole result if it contains "," or ":" character?
jsonValue()
{
num=$2
grep \""$1"\" | sed "s/\:/\n/" | grep -v \""$1"\" | sed "s/\"\,//g" | sed 's/["]*$//' | sed 's/[,]*$//'| sed 's/^[ \t]*//' | sed s/\"// | sed -n "${num}"p
}
Functionally same as @itstayyab, but ,
and :
are also handled
Yes, i know, pretty late to the party.

Works perfectly. Thanks

Just got the notification, glad it helped you. I have made some improvements since the last time.

Got my, mentioned after 6 years :) Glad that I contributed to something.
Awesome bit of code. Thank you saved me a ton of time and frustrations. Why there is no string compare like a contains just baffles me. The heavy handed use of grep is so silly. All I wanted was a simple if (something.contains(this)); then this allows me to achieve this by parsing the JSON response and then very easily create the if statement. Thank you! You are a time saver!
Given this JSON in data.json
:
{
"id": "001",
"color": "blue"
}
And I want to extract value "blue" from JSON property color
in Windows git bash (no jq dependency), here's how I do it in a pinch:
grep color data.json | cut -d'"' -f4
Another way to do it:

nice. works very well.
