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.
yaml-sucks
- XML is better than YAML
- Lingy brings to Perl what Clojure did for Java
- Docker Compose With TOML?
-
This just sucks.
Here are some examples.
-
Python 3.11 is out !
It's got a pretty complex spec and it does not take much to become completely unreadable by humans, not to mention the issues with parsing it.
- Does viper catch yaml config files with invalid syntax
-
Bob: A build system beyond building
Even simple examples don't get parsed the same between implementations.
-
copygen: Generate type-to-type and field-to-field struct code without reflection or dependencies (391x faster than copier)
There are plenty of well documented issues with YAML.

How to use YAML Aliases
Looks like some of this is either unsupported or unpredictable by different YAML parsers: https://github.com/cblp/yaml-sucks

Tuxedo control center: community edition
YAML sucks, use TOML instead. It is much more sane and as easy to use as YAML.

gron (https://github.com/tomnomnom/gron) to transform it and query and then invert the transformation?
- Show HN: Flatito, grep for YAML and JSON files
- Gron: Make JSON greppable

Make JSON Greppable
It buffers all of its output statements in memory before writing to stdout:

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

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

jq 1.7 Released
And jless [1] and gron [2].
This is the first I'm hearing of gron, but adding here for completeness sake. Meanwhile, JSON seems to be becoming a standard for CLI tools. Ideal scenario would be if every CLI tool has a --json flag or something similar, so that jc is not needed anymore.
