get field from json and assign to variable in bash script?

问题

I have a json store in jsonFile

{
  "key1": "aaaa bbbbb",
  "key2": "cccc ddddd"
}

I have code in mycode.sh:

#!/bin/bash
value=($(jq -r '.key1' jsonFile))
echo "$value"

After I run ./mycode.sh the result is aaaa but if I just run jq -r '.key1' jsonFile the result is aaaa bbbbb

Could anyone help me?

回答1:

With that line of code

value=($(jq -r '.key1' jsonFile))

you are assigning both values to an array. Note the outer parantheses () around the command. Thus you can access the values individually or echo the content of the entire array.

$ echo "${value[@]}"
aaaa bbbb

$ echo "${value[0]}"
aaaa

$ echo "${value[1]}"
bbbb

Since you echoed $value without specifying which value you want to get you only get the first value of the array.
