Hey there, I exclusively use jq with CloudMonkey
There a few options that I set for compatibility: export TERM=vt100 cloudmonkey set display json cloudmonkey set color false Here are a few examples: NETID=`cloudmonkey list virtualmachines listall=true name="$VMNAME" filter=name,nic | jq -r '.virtualmachine[] | .nic[] |.networkid'` VRIP=`cloudmonkey list routers listall="true" filter=name,nic name=$VRNAME | jq -r '.router[] | .nic[] | select(.traffictype=="Control") | .ipaddress'` HOSTDETAILS=`cloudmonkey list routers listall=true name=$VRNAME filter=name,hostname,hostid | jq '.router[]'` Regards, Paul Angus VP Technology/Cloud Architect D: +44 20 3468 5163 |S: +44 20 3603 0540 | M: +44 7711 418 784 | T: @CloudyAngus paul.an...@shapeblue.com -----Original Message----- From: create...@gmail.com [mailto:create...@gmail.com] On Behalf Of Carlos Reategui Sent: 28 August 2015 16:13 To: users@cloudstack.apache.org Subject: Re: [ANNOUNCE] Apache CloudStack CloudMonkey 5.3.2 On Wed, Aug 26, 2015 at 9:15 AM, ilya <ilya.mailing.li...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi Rohit > > Thanks for doing great job in maitaining CloudMonkey. > > I'm curious, is there any way I can filter on json sub-block? > > For example, list virtualmachines id=123 filter=name,nic[ipaddress] > > I cant seem to figure out the way to get the content of sub-block > without using "grep". > > Thanks > ilya > > Ilya, I have recently discovered jq [1] and it does a very nice job at parsing json. I have not tried it with CloudMonkey output but I do use it with the output of AWS CLI and it does wonders.
