Yes, it is possible to retrieve objects as a list in jq and access them by index using the built-in keys
function to get the keys of the object and then using the .[index]
operator to access the values associated with those keys. Here's an example:
Suppose you have the following JSON object:
{
"foo": "bar",
"baz": 42,
"qux": true
}
You can retrieve the values of this object as a list using the following jq query:
$ jq '[.[]]' example.json
This will output the values of the object as a list:
[
"bar",
42,
true
]
You can then access individual values in this list by index using the .[index]
operator. For example, to access the second element in the list (which has an index of 1), you can use the following jq query:
$ jq '[.[]][1]' example.json
This will output:
42
