Jq---the json formatting weapon in shell command mode

When developing restful web apis, JSON is generally used as the format for returning data, and debugging using the Curl command is very convenient.

But the problem with curl is that the JSON packets that are returned are not formatted, are not conducive to reading, and are more catastrophic when the data is Complex.

At this time a lot of people use Postman with UI tools, I personally prefer curl, so found a

JSON formatting Tool: jq, below is the effect

Original Effect:

$ Curl Http://localhost:8080/get
{"name": "hh", "data": {"school": "jj", "addr": "bb"}}

Effect of using JQ

$ curl-s HTTP://LOCALHOST:8080/|JQ.
{
"name": "hh",
"data": {
"school": "jj",
"addr": "bb"
}
}

The point behind the PS:JQ is a Must.

Installation: mac Brew Install JQ

Linux Apt-get Install JQ
