如何使用jq命令从json对象提取多个值

Question

I am trying to get multiple values from a json object.

{
    "nextToken": "9i2x1mbCpfo5hQ",
    "jobSummaryList": [
        {
            "jobName": "012210",
            "jobId": "0196f81cae73"
        }
    ]
}

I want nextToken 's value and jobName in one jq command.

jq '.nextToken, .jobSummaryList[].jobName' file

Answer 2

or alternatively, you could use a walk-path based unix utility jtc :

bash $ <file.json jtc -w'<nextToken>l' -w'<jobName>l' -l
"nextToken": "9i2x1mbCpfo5hQ"
"jobName": "012210"
bash $ 

• drop -l if you don't need labels to be printed
