jo is a small utility to create JSON objects.
jo creates a JSON string on stdout from _word_s given it as arguments or read from stdin. Without option -a it generates an object whereby each word is a key=value (or key@value) pair with key being the JSON object element and value its value. jo attempts to guess the type of value in order to create number (using strtod, string, or null values in JSON.
jo normally treats key as a literal string value. If the -d option is specified, key will be interpreted as an object path, whose individual components are separated by the first character of keydelim.
jo normally treats value as a literal string value, unless it begins with one of the following characters:
