This morning I needed to do a batch of API calls and parse the result for a report. It was a perfect storm for me to try out the jq command-line json parsing too. Here's one example from my shell script: First install jq.

$ brew install jq

And here is a sample response from our metrics API. This is what jq is going to parse.

GET http://indatus.com/api/companies/357/metrics { total: 40, totalCalls: 279, emergency: { response: 351 total: 24 }, general: { total: 7 }, leasing: { total: 9 }, courtesy: { total: 0 } }

curl the API and pipe the response into jq. Notice how you can pipe emergency.response (seconds) through a filter that converts the string to a number and divides by 60 to print the response time in minutes.
