I'm trying to parse JSON returned from a curl request, like so:
curl 'http://twitter.com/users/username.json' | sed -e 's/[{}]/''/g' | awk -v k="text"'{n=split($0,a,","); for (i=1; i<=n; i++) print a[i]}'The above splits the JSON into fields, for example:
% ..."geo_enabled":false"friends_count":245"profile_text_color":"000000""status":"in_reply_to_screen_name":null"source":"web""truncated":false"text":"My status""favorited":false% ...How do I print a specific field (denoted by the -v k=text)?
