gojq VS gio

Yeap i've talked to itchyny quite a lot about various changes https://github.com/itchyny/gojq/issues/153 and also upstreamed quite a lot https://github.com/itchyny/gojq/issues?q=author%3Awader like custom iterators (to allow eval, own iterators and "empty" functions), query marshalling (query rewrite tricks) and a bunch of small things and bug fixes. But the largest change to add a JQValue interface is quite complex, other changes like extended literals is also a bit tricky.

Hmm weird list of changes for https://github.com/wader/gojq/compare/fq...itchyny:gojq:main but i guess it is because i haven't kept my main branch in sync. The fq branch should be based on latest gojq/main as of now. I usually try to rebase as quick as possible.

Let me know if you have any other questions or want to help out! maybe email etc as i usually don't check HN comments replies that often :)

gojq has support for yaml input (via a very annoying argument name) and also has the golang property of "curl binary; chmod; profit": https://github.com/itchyny/gojq#difference-to-jq

It's error reporting is also clang-vs-gcc level wizardry, and I often use it to get a helpful message instead of "ENOWORKY" from jq (I haven't tried 1.7 yet, so it could be better for all I know)

Some competition for https://github.com/itchyny/gojq. I had read somewhere that it was faster than jq - no idea if that's still the case.

JQ has a go implementation usable as a library I see. The project looks fairly active https://github.com/itchyny/gojq

I've been getting a lot of mileage out of https://github.com/itchyny/gojq#readme recently due to two things: its vastly superior error messages and the (regrettably verbose) `--yaml-input` option

I also have https://github.com/01mf02/jaq#readme installed but just haven't needed it

I use gojq with --yaml-input or --yaml-output and flip back and forth between JSON and YAML promiscuously and have 100% jq UI compat, which helps because I use jq a lot. First thing I looked at on yq is '-s', which is 'slurp' for jq. Slightly altered semantics would just trip me up, and it seems like you can make a nearly straight bijection between YAML and jq so you can just do exactly the same things with either one (with some minor exceptions.)

github.com/itchyny/gojq -> similar to goawk, except JQ this time

> At least with a language like Go, it somewhat makes sense, and has been attempted: https://gioui.org/

Gio UI is an immediate-mode UI, and immediate-mode UIs map very nicely to Rust. egui is quite easy to use. https://www.egui.rs/

I've been writing a WASM app using gio & I found myself wanting for a simplified web library. In addition I drew some inspiration from leptos server functions. A friend of mine mentioned it has some similarities with next.js

I am building the same but with golang and https://gioui.org/

This release of Gonum/plot is in sync with Gonum-v0.13.0 and updates the vg/vggio backend to the latest Gio API.

Historically, C++. Today, (unfortunately) a lot of (non-game) desktop apps are written in HTML/CSS/JS using Electron. There are projects like Fyne and GIO that aim to make Go a viable language for building large-scale performant desktop apps. My open-source hobby project Supersonic is a music player app built using Fyne.

It’s actually extremely easy, if you use one of the actively developed options like https://fyne.io or https://gioui.org for example. Flutter’s Dart may help with real-time hacking of UI but Go produces better code in the long run!
