I invented jo
, but @gromgit remains the person who knows it best. Thank you, Adrian.

You are not showing us exactly what you get (e.g the diagnosting warning):
$ jo foo='\{"bla":"blub"\}' -p
Argument `-p' is neither k=v nor k@v
{"foo":"{\"bla\":\"blub\"\\}"}
This is probably not a bug but simply an esacaping thing. I think you'll find this solves your task:
$ jo bla=blub > /tmp/f
$ jo foo=@/tmp/f | jq .
{
"foo": "{\"bla\":\"blub\"}"
}

Sorry for the comment on a closed issue but I thought it might be helpful to people finding this issue.
A more streamline way is to use the shell "process substituion" or <()
:
jo foo=@<(jo bla=blu)
from jo.
jo foo='\{"bla":"blub"\}'
jo
can just as easily do that for you in a sane way, with nested invocations and (very VERY important) proper quoting of each value:
$ jo -p foo="$(jo bla=blub)"
{
"foo": {
"bla": "blub"
}
}
$ jo -p foo="$(jo bar="$(jo baz="$(jo -a 42 78 hike)")" flurb=tens)"
{
"foo": {
"bar": {
"baz": [
42,
78,
"hike"
]
},
"flurb": "tens"
}
}

@gromgit quite right, but I'm understanding OP doesn't want the nested object but rather that foo
contains the string {"bla":"blub"}
.

That is not true, maybe my build (binary package from Archlinux) is broken, but I don't get any diagnostics warning here.
@gromgit as @jpmens said, I want to have the string instead of the nested object.
@jpmens I don't understand why this odd escaping behaviour isn't a bug? I double checked it with both zsh
and bash
, both of the time the escaping seems to get broken within jo.

Sorry, I misunderstood. Still, assuming you want {"bla": "blub"}
to be treated as a string, jo
has allowed string coercions for a long time now:
$ jo -p -- -s foo='{"bla": "blub"}'
{
"foo": "{\"bla\": \"blub\"}"
}
jo -p -- -s foo="$(jo bla=blub)"
{
"foo": "{\"bla\":\"blub\"}"
}
Note that the first example actually preserved the space after the colon, proving conclusively that the value was indeed treated as a string instead of being interpreted by jo
.

ok, sorry, I tried with jo -s foo='{"bla": "blub"}'
first, but only got the message
jo: invalid option -- 's'
[...help...]
Should have read the manual more in depth.
