The query language Unquery is a fast, powerful and flexible language for querying structured documents. It was originally developed as the query language for XCiteDB, a fast and reliable noSQL database for structured documents, supporting XML, JSON, and other features such as temporal versioning and branches.
This repository contains unq, a stand-alone command-line tool for querying, transforming and analyzing JSON files using Unquery. It reads either a single or multiple JSON files and an Unquery query, and produce a single JSON output based on the query.
This is free and open source software.
