jqjq VS jaq

* https://github.com/wader/jqjq

It really is a super cool little, super expressive nearly (if not entirely) turing complete pure functional programming language.

You can:

Being a long time personal friend with the author I can assure you the more obscure the better :-) His interest in esoteric things and solutions are "well documented" if you browse around his github repos.

Some examples:

Jqjq: Jq Implementation of Jq\ (16 comments)

https://github.com/01mf02/jaq/blob/main/Cargo.lock

That's a lot of dependencies..

Thanks for the jqjq shoutout! :) i'm quite sure jq is turing complete, jq (and jqjq!) can implement brainfuck https://github.com/01mf02/jaq/blob/main/examples/bf.jq

/uj Because of this post, I have learned I could have been using jaq instead of jq.

There's also jaq which is written in Rust, aims for compatibility with jq (except some specific features), and boasts better performance.

jaq is closer to that

if [[ $(hyprctl -j getoption general:layout | jaq -r '.str') = "master" ]]; then hyprctl keyword general:layout "dwindle" else hyprctl keyword general:layout "master" fi you'll need https://github.com/01mf02/jaq

You will need https://github.com/01mf02/jaq

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
