bigjq
A node-jq plugin to enable big arguments
why?
When using the node-jq library it fails if the input is too large.
It would be ideal if the original node-jq repository implemented this feature but it doesn't look like it's going to happen any time soon.
how?
jq has an option to accept stdin as input, and this doesn't have a limit.
This library makes use of that feature and creates an abstraction on top of node-jq.
installation
npm install --save bigjq
You don't need to install node-jq separately because it's automatically installed as a dependency when you install this library.
usage
const jq = require('bigjq')
jq.run(filter, data)
.then(function(result) {
console.log("result = ", result)
})
.catch(function(e) {
console.log("error = ", e)
})
