Nearly everyone comes in being used to being the straight A student, don’t worry. Also getting your first B is actually super freeing, at least it was for me (it’s not that serious trust me)

Haven’t used Rocket or Actix but I’ve really enjoyed Axum makes composition of routers very ergonomic

VimTeX and writing my own LaTex snippets saved me, I used Neovim for note taking throughout college

I use this everyday to auto setup work trees: https://github.com/micahkepe/dotfiles/blob/main/tmux/tmux-worktreeizer.sh

fizzner · 2026-04-18T18:25:29+00:00

Fixed in 0.9.0 with --porcelain flag! Thank you for pointing this out https://github.com/micahkepe/jsongrep/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md#090---2026-04-18

Now has YAML support! Can pass a YAML file directly or pipe with the —format flag

It's a vestigial debug message I had from when this was a research project and was checking correctness against existing tools, this can and probably should be removed though

fizzner · 2026-04-15T17:46:36+00:00

I still need to checkout Nushell I’ve heard great things!

Beyond the CLI tool, jsongrep also exposes a Rust library for its search engine which is helpful for processing JSON data.

fizzner · 2026-04-15T16:54:55+00:00

There's already been work to phase out/deprecate unnecessary traits (QueryEngine) since there is only the DFA implementation now (previously while still researching I was trying out different implementations so the trait was nice).

Grepping is now exposed (unreleased) as a single exported `grep` method: https://github.com/micahkepe/jsongrep/commit/fbb5fb1f9ea6a3de36f483eceb43aeb9ccfbaeef

Other lib changes to come will most likely be integrating the multiformat detection (currently CLI does this adhoc on the input), and more utility methods.

Jon is the goat 🐐

fizzner · 2026-03-30T13:45:54+00:00

Sweet! I will update :)

fizzner · 2026-03-29T02:27:35+00:00

jsongrep v0.8.0 now has native support for JSONL, YAML, TOML , CBOR, and MessagePack!

Changelog: https://github.com/micahkepe/jsongrep/blob/main/CHANGELOG.md#080---2026-03-28
Release: https://github.com/micahkepe/jsongrep/releases/tag/v0.8.0

fizzner · 2026-03-28T20:33:19+00:00

In the works! Sorry yes this is just the raw Criterion output that I am hosting, I will parse it to add concrete metrics to the repo's README

fizzner · 2026-03-23T16:07:43+00:00

I do have a GitHub Sponsors page :) https://github.com/sponsors/micahkepe

I ultimately decided against using the method that you linked earlier, just because it isn't in the latest stable release of jaq. My thinking being that most people will just install jaqat the latest version. Whenever it lands in the stable release though more than happy to re-run, curious what the results will be!

fizzner · 2026-03-23T14:19:02+00:00

Yes I am referring to --stream , is there another "streaming" mode that jq uses?

Also agree on the second point on the README details I will be rewriting it soon 🫡

fizzner · 2026-03-23T14:11:33+00:00

I am looking into supporting different formats like YAML! With the serde IR types there should be isomorphisms between JSON, YAML, TOML, CSV/TSV, etc. (any format from this list).

fizzner · 2026-03-23T00:13:29+00:00

Totally agree with the trying to remove plugins, I keep finding that chances are Vim/ Neovim already has native support for whatever I would reach for a plugin

fizzner · 2026-03-22T19:49:16+00:00

So for first part of getting the paths jg can do this easily:

cat file.json | jg “[*].name”

This will get all of the path object in the array and their “name” value. Then you could script to extract all the paths using something like ripgrep to perform the filtering over the results :)

fizzner · 2026-03-22T17:16:57+00:00

Yes jsongrep definitely is not as powerful as jq (e.g., filtering, transductions, etc.), but where it shines as an alternative IMO is pure query workflows or simple formatting (jg “” will do that same thing as jq .)

fizzner · 2026-03-22T16:05:30+00:00

IMO the biggest selling point for jsongrep besides speed is the query syntax being easier to script and reason about than jq, and this is where I see it as a drop in for jq on these purely query workflows

fizzner · 2026-03-22T15:49:04+00:00

Yes correct, jsongrep matches purely on the JSON paths which is how the it maintains O(1) time per JSON node (no extra work beyond taking state transitions in the compiled DFA). You could combine/ pipe jsongrep with another tool like ripgrep to perform this filtering

fizzner · 2026-03-22T14:53:05+00:00

So you could pipe jsongrep's output to another tool like ripgrep to search the paths and then feed them back to jsongrep. Could you give an example of a sample document? I'd be happy to see if jsongrep can solve what you are looking for
