# JSON.sh
yo, so it's a json parser written in bash
pipe json to it, and it traverses the json objects and prints out the
path to the current object (as a JSON array) and then the object, without whitespace.
``` bash
$ json_parse < package.json
["name"] "JSON.sh"
["version"] "0.0.0"
["description"] ""
["homepage"] "http://github.com/dominictarr/JSON.sh"
["repository","type"] "git"
["repository","url"] "https://github.com/dominictarr/JSON.sh.git"
["repository"] {"type":"git","url":"https://github.com/dominictarr/JSON.sh.git"}
["bin","json_parse"] "./JSON.sh"
["bin"] {"json_parse":"./JSON.sh"}
["dependencies"] {}
# ... etc
```
a more complex example:
``` bash
curl registry.npmjs.org/express | ./JSON.sh | egrep '\["versions","[^"]*"\]'
... try it and see
```
## Options

-l
> Leaf only. Only show leaf nodes, which stops data duplication.
-p
> Prune empty. Exclude fields with empty values.
-h
> Show help text.
