Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.
JsonPath
- Ask HN: What is something you built but never marketed?
-
Running Jenkins on PR in Azure DevOps
As shown above in order to access the root element of a JSON payload we can create variable (data) and assign the $ (using Json Path convention) in the expression tab.
-
How would experienced devs handle checking JSON objects for specific property condition?
Look into JSONPath and its one Java implementation.
-
Like JQ, but for HTML
is anyone else using the https://github.com/json-path/JsonPath over the jq route?
I hope we standardize on some jq query language, like we have with a base set of SQL syntax
-
Which JSON parsers do not require me to duplicate the document model?
I use JsonPath for this. This fits my use case of picking apart JSON responses from APIs in Cucumber tests, which is based on textual descriptions and I'm not using Java classes for the mapping.
-
Traversing nested data-structures in various languages
JSONPath confers pretty much the same concept onto JSON too with much the same syntax. There are JPath implementations for most languages now.

Show HN: Flatito, grep for YAML and JSON files
This looks cool!
It doesn't do quite the same thing, but a tool I've had good luck with for quick-n-dirty grepping of JSON is gron:
https://github.com/tomnomnom/gron
(which I'm sure I learned about from a thread like this on HN...)
It sort of "flattens out" your JSON to allow you to do whatever you want to it (grepping, for one thing!). Then you can even turn gron's output back into JSON with `ungron`.
Maybe someone will find it a useful toolbox addition, much like the Flatito looks to be!
-
Make JSON Greppable
It buffers all of its output statements in memory before writing to stdout:
- Ask HN: What are some unpopular technologies you wish people knew more about?
-
Jaq – A jq clone focused on correctness, speed, and simplicity
Have you tried `gron`?
It converts your nested json into a line by line format which plays better with tools like `grep`
From the project's README:
▶ gron "https://api.github.com/repos/tomnomnom/gron/commits?per_page..." | fgrep "commit.author"
json[0].commit.author = {};
json[0].commit.author.date = "2016-07-02T10:51:21Z";
json[0].commit.author.email = "[email protected]";
json[0].commit.author.name = "Tom Hudson";
https://github.com/tomnomnom/gron
It was suggested to me in HN comments on an article I wrote about `jq`, and I have found myself using it a lot in my day to day workflow
Obligatory reference to "gron" ("make JSON greppable"), which I find to be quite useful for many common use cases:
-
Interactive Examples for Learning Jq
> So all I want is a tool to go from json => line oriented and I will do the rest with the vast library of experience I already have at transformations on the command line.*
The tool for that is likely https://github.com/tomnomnom/gron
-
Modern Linux Tools vs. Unix Classics: Which Would I Choose?
If JQ is too much, see GRON &| Miller
gron transforms JSON into discrete assignments to make it easier to grep for what you want https://github.com/tomnomnom/gron
Miller is like awk, sed, cut, join, and sort for data formats such as CSV, TSV, JSON, JSON https://github.com/johnkerl/miller
