jq is not appending json file
I have a json file like this:
{ "active": "secure", "secure": { "nodetype": "secure", "nodeid": null, "servers": [ "ts2.na", "ts1.na", "ts3.na" ], "stakeaddr": null, "email": null, "fqdn": null, "ipv": "4" } }
I wanted to change it to something like this:
"active": "secure",
"secure": {
"nodetype": "secure",
"nodeid": null,
"servers": [
"ts2.na",
"ts1.na",
"ts3.na"
],
"stakeaddr": "my nicea address",
"email": "mynice@email.com",
"fqdn": "itsmyfqdn",
"ipv": "4"
}
}
So, I tried this
jq '.secure.stakeaddr = "my nice address"' config.json
although it gives me this output:
{
"stakeaddr": "my nice address",
"email": null,
"fqdn": null,
}
But, when I cat config.json, it shows the last unchanged file. I tried with chmod 777 as well, same result. I do not know what I am doing wrong.
bash shell json jq
