## Projektgeschichte und Nutzung

jsawk is a small command-line filter that applies awk-like pipeline habits to JSON data by evaluating JavaScript over objects read from standard input.

### Projektgeschichte

The GitHub repository was created in May 2009. Its README frames the tool as awk for JSON: input is parsed into arrays and objects, JavaScript expressions filter or transform the data, and output returns to stdout for shell pipelines.

### Adoptionsgeschichte

jsawk remained a compact Unix-style tool rather than a large ecosystem. Homebrew packages version 1.4 from the GitHub tag archive, and the repository has enough stars and forks to show durable interest among shell users who wanted JSON manipulation before jq became the default answer.

### Wie es verwendet wird

Typical usage is piping REST API JSON into jsawk, selecting or transforming fields with JavaScript, and either emitting JSON again or printing custom text for another command in the pipeline.

### Warum Paket-Nerds sich dafür interessieren

jsawk is a useful historical waypoint in the JSON-on-the-command-line story: it shows the pre-jq period when developers tried to extend familiar text filters with JavaScript object access instead of adopting a purpose-built JSON query language.

### Zeitleiste

- 2009: GitHub repository created.
- 2010s: Homebrew packaged jsawk as a JSON-aware shell filter.
- 2026: Homebrew continued to package the 1.4 tag archive.
