jq is written in C and has no runtime dependencies, so it should be
|
|
possible to build it for nearly any platform. Prebuilt binaries are
|
|
available for Linux, OS X and Windows.
|
|
|
|
The binaries should just run, but on OS X and Linux you may need
|
|
to make them executable first using `chmod +x jq`.
|
|
|
|
jq is licensed under the MIT license. For all of the gory
|
|
details, read the file `COPYING` in the source distribution.
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
* [Source tarball for jq 1.4](source/jq-1.4.tar.gz)
|
|
|
|
You can build it using the usual `./configure && make && sudo
|
|
make install` rigmarole.
|
|
|
|
If you're interested in using the lastest development version, try:
|
|
|
|
git clone https://github.com/stedolan/jq.git
|
|
cd jq
|
|
autoreconf -i
|
|
./configure
|
|
make
|
|
sudo make install
|
|
|
|
To build it from a git clone, you'll need to install a few
|
|
packages first:
|
|
|
|
* [Flex](http://flex.sourceforge.net/)
|
|
* [Bison](http://www.gnu.org/software/bison/)
|
|
* [GCC](http://gcc.gnu.org)
|
|
* [Make](http://www.gnu.org/software/make/)
|
|
* [Autotools](http://www.gnu.org/software/automake/)
|
|
|
|
For Linux systems, these will all be in your system's package
|
|
manager, and if you do development on the machine they're most
|
|
likely already installed.
|
|
|
|
On OS X, these are all included in Apple's command line tools, which can
|
|
be installed from [Xcode](https://developer.apple.com/xcode/). However,
|
|
you may find that you need a newer version of Bison than the one provided
|
|
by Apple. This can be found in [Homebrew](http://brew.sh) or
|
|
[MacPorts](http://macports.org/).
|
|
|
|
Flex and Bison are used to generate the lexer and parser for jq. For jq
|
|
1.5, neither is required if you use `./configure
|
|
--disable-maintainer-mode` instead of `./configure`. This flag says to use
|
|
the pre-generated lexer and parser that come with the code.
|

|
#### Building the documentation
|
|
|
|
jq's documentation is compiled into static HTML using
|
|
[Bonsai](http://www.tinytree.info). To view the documentation
|
|
locally, run `rake serve` (or `bundle exec rake serve`) from the
|
|
docs/ subdirectory. To build the docs just `rake build` from the
|
|
docs subdirectory. You'll need a few Ruby dependencies, which can
|
|
be installed by following the instructions in `docs/README.md`.
|
|
|
|
The man page is built by `make jq.1`, or just `make`, also from
|
|
the YAML docs, and you'll still need the Ruby dependencies to
|
|
build the manpage.
