About:
dasel is a command-line utility written in Go that provides a unified interface for querying and modifying structured data across multiple formats. It uses a simple selector syntax to navigate and manipulate JSON, YAML, TOML, XML, and CSV files, eliminating the need for format-specific tools. Its primary value is enabling consistent data extraction, updates, and format conversions in scripts and automation workflows.
|
Key Features:
- Supports querying and editing JSON, YAML, TOML, XML, and CSV
- Uses a consistent, intuitive selector syntax for all formats
- Enables easy conversion between different data formats
- Command-line focused for scripting and automation
|
Use Cases:
- Extracting and modifying values in configuration files for DevOps tasks
- Converting data between formats (e.g., JSON to YAML) in build pipelines
- Parsing and manipulating structured output from APIs or commands
|
Alternatives:
-
jq
– Powerful for JSON only, while dasel handles multiple formats
-
yq
– Specializes in YAML/JSON processing; dasel adds TOML, XML, and CSV support
