LiveJQ

livejq is JSON parser like jq but is designed to work in continuous input without crashing on invalid JSON

User Case

1. When you have a program that is printing logs which may have other formats in between like text along with JSON, and you want to parse JSON for better readability. You can use livejq to parse JSON without crashing on other formats.

It works on one assumption that the JSON is a single string like '{ "name": "Kunal Singh", "age": 21 }'.

This is a limitation, but will be fixed in future
