  Like jq, but for HTML.

  Pure Go implementation of jq

I use gojq with --yaml-input or --yaml-output and flip back and forth between JSON and YAML promiscuously and have 100% jq UI compat, which helps because I use jq a lot. First thing I looked at on yq is '-s', which is 'slurp' for jq. Slightly altered semantics would just trip me up, and it seems like you can make a nearly straight bijection between YAML and jq so you can just do exactly the same things with either one (with some minor exceptions.)

  Command-line YAML, XML, TOML processor - jq wrapper for YAML/XML/TOML documents (by kislyuk)

I personally find the yq tool from https://github.com/kislyuk/yq much more useful: it has all the same options and formats as `jq` (as it's really a wrapper around jq). Rather than the `yq` in the OP here where only partial functionality exists.

  SQL-like query language for csv

Lately I have had to do a lot of flat file analysis and tools along these lines have been a godsend. Will check this out.

My go to lately has been csvq (https://mithrandie.github.io/csvq/). Really nice to be able run complicated selects right over a CSV file with no setup at all.

  JMESPath Specification

  

Not to mention that JMESpath appears to be abandoned.

There is a fork (https://github.com/jmespath-community/jmespath.spec), but it seems unlikely to be used by the aws cli (https://github.com/aws/aws-cli/issues/7396). Although, for that matter jq is semi-abandoned itself.

  A Template engine for YAML & JSON

  

Templating yaml with a text templating language like Helm's templating language is a terrible idea. Templating objects and serializing them to Yaml (with input also being Yaml) I find quite nice: https://github.com/con2/emrichen
