Yep, you can create a filter in jq to do that. Alternatively, if you prefer Python syntax you could try jello, which works like jq but is really Python under the hood. (I am also the author of jello)

I'm no expert in any of these tools, but here are some yamlpath and jello examples to match:

Similar in concept to jello[0] which works like jq but uses python syntax.

Or, if you prefer python list comprehension syntax, you could use Jello:

You could do something like this in pure python without the json loading boilerplate with jello[0]. An interactive TUI for jello called jellex[1} is also available. (I am the author)

Also, Jellex is a TUI front-end to Jello that helps with interactively querying the JSON.

I wrote something similar to this to query JSON and JSON lines with python instead of awk for text. It’s called Jellex (Jello Explorer) which is a TUI front-end to Jello. Jello is a python analog to JQ.

There's a new TUI for jello now called jellex that can help you create your jello python filters faster and easier.

I made this TUI app using prompt-toolkit
