This ended up being a release to cleanup old sins in the decoder internals and change some defaults how binary values work with JSON and string functions.

It also adds a new Time Zone Information Format decoder tzif (Thanks Takashi Oguma @bitbears-dev) and a new Apple BookmarkData decoder apple_bookmark decoder (Thanks David McDonald @dgmcdona). Also a new function from_ns_keyed_archiver was added to convert NSKeyedArchiver encoded objects into JSON.

A possible breaking change is that now all from/to prefix functions now has a from_/to_ prefix, ex: from_mp3 instead of frommp3. There are some few exceptions to this. Note that the functions named just be the format name, ex mp3 are still around.

In other fq related news jq-lsp got some fixed and additions and seems to work fine with neovim. It's also possible to use jq-lsp with vscode using vscode-jq.

Changes

  • All functions that had a from/to prefix now has the prefix from_/to_. This is to be easier to read and more consistent, there are still some exceptions like tovalue, torepr, tobytes etc but in general anything that does not deal with primitive types is now snake_case. #535
  • Change default bit_formats option value (how raw bits values are represented in JSON) from snippet to string. snippet meant truncated bits as base64. Now all bits are included as a UTF-8 string. The string will be binary safe (not lose any data) when used internally in fq but will lose data when represented in JSON as some bytes can't be encoded as UTF-8. #499
  • Don't auto convert to binary for string/regexp functions, turned out this is very confusing. Now you have to manually use tobytes etc to convert to binary value. #540
    # This used to not work as test/1 would convert decode values to the source bytes
    # (0x00 0x00 0x00 0x01) in this case. Now the jq value (symbolic in this case) will
    # be used instead. You can do ".test | tobytes" to get old behavior.
    #
    # find all types with a "mdta." prefix
    $ fq -o line_bytes=10 'grep_by(.type | test(`^mdta\.`))' file.mp4

  • Fix panic when cancel (ctrl-c etc) before interpreter is executing. Thanks @pldin601 for reporting. #495
  • Fix error using JQValue:s in assign/update paths, ex .[<JQValue here>] = 123 #509
  • Rename fields added for bit-ranges not used by a decoder from unknown# to gap#. "unknown" is probably a useful field name in some formats and "gap" describe better what it is. #500
  • Big decode API internals refactor to split scalars types into their own go types so they can store per type specific values. This also opens up for more ways to make fq both faster and more memory efficient. It also makes the decode API more type safe and makes it possible to experiment with decode DLS that uses chained methods etc. #523
