jqis a popular choice for being installed, especially on CI machines, and using it is much faster than running node.Problem
Using
nodecan be problematic if it's not installed yet, and it also has a much higher overhead (= time) to start. Doesn't matter for an automated CI case, but in interactive use the potential doubling of runningnodeis noticeable.Solution
Use
jqif it's installed. This is very straightforward use ofjq, so prefer that overnodeif it is installed.ChangeLog
jqto read values frompackage.jsonif it is installed.Closes #807.
