I have a json file, which is stored in an environment variable temp.

{ "users": [ { "username": "jack", "email": "jack@somewhere.com", "total running apps": "1", "api-mock-app": "0", "flogo": "1", "ipaas": "0", "nodejs-app": "0" }, { "username": "jill", "email": "jill@somewhere.com", "total running apps": "1", "api-mock-app": "0", "flogo": "1", "ipaas": "0", "nodejs-app": "0" } ] } When i am converting this JSON into CSV using this command

jq -r '.users[] | [.username, .email, .total running apps, .api-mock-app, .flogo, .ipaas, .nodejs-app] | @csv' <<< $temp

I am getting following error.

jq: error: syntax error, unexpected IDENT (Unix shell quoting issues?) at , line 1: .users[] | [.username, .email, .total running apps, .api-mock-app, .flogo, .ipaas, .nodejs-app] | @csv
jq: 1 compile error

Any help Please?

You need to quote your column names, especially since they contain spaces and dashes. However you need to escape the quotes for bash:

jq --raw-output '.users[] | [.username, .email, ."total running apps", ."api-mock-app", ."flogo", ."ipaas", ."nodejs-app"] | @csv'

  • It's printing keys only, and that too with ., Output is: ".username",".email",".total running apps",".api-mock-app",".flogo",".ipaas",".nodejs-app" ".username",".email",".total running apps",".api-mock-app",".flogo",".ipaas",".nodejs-app" – Rajiv Rai Dec 08 '17 at 13:33
  • Sorry, I had the dots at the wrong place (inside the quotes instead of outside. I edited the answer, now it should work – chuck258 Dec 08 '17 at 13:44
  • It worked, can you please also add keys into CSV first row? – Rajiv Rai Dec 08 '17 at 13:50

            var str = '';

            for (var i = 0; i < array.length; i++) {
                var line = '';
                for (var index in array[i]) {
