# bash2js

[![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/bellstrand/bash2js.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/bellstrand/bash2js)

[![npm Version](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/bash2js.svg)](https://www.npmjs.com/package/bash2js)

bash2js converts bash output to JavaScript Arrays/Objects and lets you use JavaScript functions on it

## Installation

```bash

# required NodeJS to work https://nodejs.org/

npm install -g bash2js

```

## How to use

```bash

command | bash2js # converts output from "command" to an array/object and prints it

command | bash2js "map(col => col[0])" # converts output from "command", loops through it and prints column of index 0 from each line (expects output to be an array)

command | bash2js test # converts output from "command", prints property with key "test" (expects output to be an object)

command | bash2js "[0]" # converts output from "command", prints first index in the array (expects output to be an array)

command | bash2js > test.json # converts output from "command", saved output to "test.json"

```

## Examples

```bash

ls -l # outputs

total 10

-rwxr-xr-x 1 user 1049089 1013 jul 22 11:18 index.js*
