## Projektgeschichte und Nutzung

jql is a Rust command-line JSON query language and runner. It positions itself as a fast, lightweight, deliberately simple JSON selection tool rather than a jq-compatible language.

### Projektgeschichte

The Rust crate metadata dates the jql package to 2018-10-06. The repository later settled into a workspace with the jql binary plus jql-parser and jql-runner library crates, exposing the parser and execution pieces as reusable Rust packages.

### Adoptionsgeschichte

jql has broader packaging than most niche JSON CLIs in this batch. Its README lists installation routes through Alpine, Arch AUR, Cargo, Cargo Binstall, Fedora, FreeBSD, Homebrew, Nix, openSUSE, and GitHub release binaries. Crates.io reported 248,530 total downloads and 3,640 recent downloads for the jql crate on 2026-07-01.

### Wie es verwendet wird

jql accepts a query token sequence and returns JSON, with object selectors, array selectors, ranges, flattening, key extraction, streaming line-by-line input, validation, inline output, raw string output, and file-based queries. The README explicitly says there is no plan to align jql with jq or similar tools.

### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

For package collectors, jql is interesting as one of several post-jq experiments that treat JSON querying as a compact shell primitive but choose a new grammar. Its split crates also make it more library-shaped than a single binary-only utility.

### Zeitleiste

- 2018: Crates.io recorded the jql crate creation on 2018-10-06.
- 2026: The GitHub release feed recorded jql, jql-parser, and jql-runner 8.1.x releases on 2026-03-18.
- 2026: Homebrew formula API packaged jql 8.1.2 from the jql-v8.1.2 GitHub archive.

### Related projects

- jql is related to jq by domain rather than compatibility. Within its own repository, the most direct related projects are the jql-parser and jql-runner crates.
