About

Maintained by Jeroen OomsFirst published 2016-03-2317 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

Client for 'jq', a 'JSON' processor (https://jqlang.github.io/jq/), written in C. 'jq' allows the following with 'JSON' data: index into, parse, do calculations, cut up and filter, change key names and values, perform conditionals and comparisons, and more.

  install.packages("pak", repos = "https://cloud.r-project.org/")
pak::pak("ropensci/jqr")

Development version from ropensci/jqr. Installs pak first if it is not already available.

Release

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash
