Miller is like awk, sed, cut, join, and sort for name-indexed data such as CSV, TSV, and tabular JSON
What is Miller?
Miller is like awk, sed, cut, join, and sort for data formats such as CSV, TSV, JSON, JSON Lines, and positionally-indexed.
What can Miller do for me?
With Miller, you get to use named fields without needing to count positional indices, using familiar formats such as CSV, TSV, JSON, JSON Lines, and positionally-indexed. Then, on the fly, you can add new fields which are functions of existing fields, drop fields, sort, aggregate statistically pretty-print, and more.
-
Miller operates on key-value-pair data while the familiar Unix tools operate on integer-indexed fields: if the natural data structure for the latter is the array, then Miller's natural data structure is the insertion-ordered hash map.
-
Miller handles a variety of data formats, including but not limited to the familiar CSV, TSV, and JSON/JSON Lines. (Miller can handle positionally-indexed data too!)
