fast-json

This package implements fast extraction of part of JSON.

  • 3.5x times faster than jq
  • 4.5x times faster than JSON.parse

Notes:

  • Fastest way of extracting part of JSON from file
  • Arrays not supported currently
  • Does not check for valid JSON (you can grab "foo" from here: {"foo": "bar", here goes anything)

Install

npm i @medv/fast-json

Usage

const fastJSON = require('@medv/fast-json')

const result = fastJSON(input, path)

Another example:

const result = fastJSON('{"foo": {"bar": 1}}', ['foo', 'bar'])

CLI

npm i -g @medv/fast-json
cat data.json | fast-json path to field
