Updated repo name

The delete (short option "d") will delete the YAML subtree at the
provided path in the specified file (or STDIN), if it the node exists.

More complex support is currently omitted, for example:

  - specify nodes to delete using an external script
  - deleting common elements from all elements of an array

-# yq
+# yq [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/mikefarah/yq.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/mikefarah/yq)
+a lightweight and portable command-line YAML processor
 
-a lightweight and portable command-line YAML, JSON, INI and XML processor. `yq` uses [jq](https://github.com/stedolan/jq) like syntax but works with yaml files as well as json, xml, ini, properties, csv and tsv. It doesn't yet support everything `jq` does - but it does support the most common operations and functions, and more is being added continuously.
-
-yq is written in go - so you can download a dependency free binary for your platform and you are good to go! If you prefer there are a variety of package managers that can be used as well as Docker and Podman, all listed below.
-
-## Quick Usage Guide
-
-Read a value:
-```bash
-yq '.a.b[0].c' file.yaml
-```
-
-Pipe from STDIN:
-```bash
-yq '.a.b[0].c' < file.yaml
-```
-
-Update a yaml file, in place
-```bash
-yq -i '.a.b[0].c = "cool"' file.yaml
-```
-
-Update using environment variables
-```bash
-NAME=mike yq -i '.a.b[0].c = strenv(NAME)' file.yaml
-```
-
-Merge multiple files
-```bash
-# merge two files
-yq -n 'load("file1.yaml") * load("file2.yaml")'
-
-# merge using globs:
-# note the use of `ea` to evaluate all the files at once
-# instead of in sequence
-yq ea '. as $item ireduce ({}; . * $item )' path/to/*.yml
-```
-
-Multiple updates to a yaml file
-```bash
-yq -i '
-  .a.b[0].c = "cool" |
-  .x.y.z = "foobar" |
-  .person.name = strenv(NAME)
-' file.yaml
-```
-
-Find and update an item in an array:
-```bash
-yq '(.[] | select(.name == "foo") | .address) = "12 cat st"'
-```
-
-Convert JSON to YAML
-```bash
-yq -Poy sample.json
-```
-
-See [recipes](https://mikefarah.gitbook.io/yq/recipes) for more examples and the [documentation](https://mikefarah.gitbook.io/yq/) for more information.
-
-Take a look at the discussions for [common questions](https://github.com/mikefarah/yq/discussions/categories/q-a), and [cool ideas](https://github.com/mikefarah/yq/discussions/categories/show-and-tell)
+The aim of the project is to be the [jq](https://github.com/stedolan/jq) or sed of yaml files.
 
 ## Install
+On MacOS:
+```
+brew install yq
+```
+On Ubuntu and other Linux distros supporting `snap` packages:
+```
+snap install yq
+```
+or, [Download latest binary](https://github.com/mikefarah/yq/releases/latest) or alternatively:
+```
+go get github.com/mikefarah/yq
+```
 
-See the [github page](https://github.com/mikefarah/yq/#install) for the various ways you can install and use `yq`
+## Run with Docker
 
-## Known Issues / Missing Features
-- `yq` attempts to preserve comment positions and whitespace as much as possible, but it does not handle all scenarios (see https://github.com/go-yaml/yaml/tree/v3 for details)
-- Powershell has its own...[opinions on quoting yq](https://mikefarah.gitbook.io/yq/usage/tips-and-tricks#quotes-in-windows-powershell)
+Oneshot use:
 
-See [tips and tricks](https://mikefarah.gitbook.io/yq/usage/tips-and-tricks) for more common problems and solutions.
+```bash
+docker run -v ${PWD}:/workdir mikefarah/yq yq [flags] <command> FILE...
+```
+
+Run commands interactively:
+
+```bash
+docker run -it -v ${PWD}:/workdir mikefarah/yq sh
+```
+
+## Features
+- Written in portable go, so you can download a lovely dependency free binary
+- Deep read a yaml file with a given path
+- Update a yaml file given a path
+- Update a yaml file given a script file
+- Update creates any missing entries in the path on the fly

----
-
-# Evaluate All
-
-Evaluate All is most useful when needing to run expressions that depend on multiple yaml documents or files. Merge is probably the most common reason why evaluate all would be used. Note that `eval-all` consumes more memory than `evaluate`.
-
-Like `evaluate` you can use `-` to pipe from STDIN.
-
-## Usage
-
-```bash
-yq eval-all [expression] [yaml_file1]... [flags]
-```
-
-Aliases: `eval-all, ea`
-
-## Examples
-
-```bash
-# merges f2.yml into f1.yml (inplace)
-yq eval-all --inplace 'select(fileIndex == 0) * select(fileIndex == 1)' f1.yml f2.yml
-
-# you can merge into a file, piping from STDIN
-cat somefile.yml | yq eval-all --inplace 'select(fileIndex == 0) * select(fileIndex == 1)' f1.yml -
-```
-
-## Flags
-
-```bash
-  -h, --help          help for eval-all
-  -C, --colors        force print with colors
-  -e, --exit-status   set exit status if there are no matches or null or false is returned
-  -I, --indent int    sets indent level for output (default 2)
-  -i, --inplace       update the yaml file inplace of first yaml file given.
-  -M, --no-colors     force print with no colors
-  -N, --no-doc        Don't print document separators (---)
-  -n, --null-input    Don't read input, simply evaluate the expression given. Useful for creating yaml docs from scratch.
-  -j, --tojson        output as json. Set indent to 0 to print json in one line.
-  -v, --verbose       verbose mode
-

-
-Aliases: `eval, e`
-
-Note that you can pass in `-` as a filename to pipe from STDIN.

-
-```bash
-# runs the expression against each file, in series
-yq '.a.b | length' f1.yml f2.yml 
-
-# '-' will pipe from STDIN
-cat file.yml | yq '.a.b' f1.yml -  f2.yml

+<p>To convert output to json, use the --tojson (or -j) flag. This can be used with any command.</p>
+<p>Given a sample.yaml file of:</p>
+<pre><code class="yaml">b:
+  c: 2
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>then</p>
+<pre><code class="bash">yq r -j sample.yaml b.c
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>will output</p>
+<pre><code class="json">{&quot;b&quot;:{&quot;c&quot;:2}}
+</code></pre>
+
+<h3 id="json-to-yaml">Json to Yaml<a class="headerlink" href="#json-to-yaml" title="Permanent link">&para;</a></h3>
+<p>To read in json, just pass in a json file instead of yaml, it will just work :)</p>
+<p>e.g given a json file</p>
+<pre><code class="json">{&quot;a&quot;:&quot;Easy! as one two three&quot;,&quot;b&quot;:{&quot;c&quot;:2,&quot;d&quot;:[3,4]}}

+                <p>Yaml files can be created using the 'new' command. This works in the same way as the write command, but you don't pass in an existing Yaml file.</p>

+</code></pre>

+<h3 id="creating-a-simple-yaml-file">Creating a simple yaml file<a class="headerlink" href="#creating-a-simple-yaml-file" title="Permanent link">&para;</a></h3>
+<pre><code class="bash">yq n b.c cat

+</code></pre>
+
+<h3 id="creating-using-a-create-script">Creating using a create script<a class="headerlink" href="#creating-using-a-create-script" title="Permanent link">&para;</a></h3>
+<p>Create scripts follow the same format as the update scripts.</p>
+<p>Given a script create_instructions.yaml of:</p>
+<pre><code class="yaml">b.c: 3
+b.e[0].name: Howdy Partner
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>then</p>
+<pre><code class="bash">yq n -s create_instructions.yaml
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>will output:</p>
+<pre><code class="yaml">b:
+  c: 3
+  e:
+    - name: Howdy Partner
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>You can also pipe the instructions in:</p>
+<pre><code class="bash">cat create_instructions.yaml | yq n -s -
+</code></pre>
+
+<h3 id="keys-with-dots">Keys with dots<a class="headerlink" href="#keys-with-dots" title="Permanent link">&para;</a></h3>
+<p>When specifying a key that has a dot use key lookup indicator.</p>
+<pre><code class="yaml">b:
+  foo.bar: 7
+</code></pre>
+
+<pre><code class="bash">yaml r sample.yaml 'b[foo.bar]'
+</code></pre>
+
+<pre><code class="bash">yaml w sample.yaml 'b[foo.bar]' 9
+</code></pre>
+
+<p>Any valid yaml key can be specified as part of a key lookup.</p>
+<p>Note that the path is in quotes to avoid the square brackets being interpreted by your shell.</p>

-# Expression Syntax: A Visual Guide
-In `yq`, expressions are made up of operators and pipes. A context of nodes is passed through the expression, and each operation takes the context as input and returns a new context as output. That output is piped in as input for the next operation in the expression.
-
-Let's break down the process step by step using a diagram. We'll start with a single YAML document, apply an expression, and observe how the context changes at each step.
-
-Given a document like:
-
-```yaml
-root:
-  items:
-    - name: apple
-      type: fruit
-    - name: carrot
-      type: vegetable
-    - name: banana
-      type: fruit
-```
-
-You can use dot notation to access nested structures. For example, to access the `name` of the first item, you would use the expression `.root.items[0].name`, which would return `apple`.
-
-But lets see how we could find all the fruit under `items`
-
-## Step 1: Initial Context
-The context starts at the root of the YAML document. In this case, the entire document is the initial context. 
-
-```
-root
-└── items
-    ├── name: apple
-    │   type: fruit
-    ├── name: carrot
-    │   type: vegetable
-    └── name: banana
-        type: fruit
-```
-
-## Step 2: Splatting the Array
-Using the expression `.root.items[]`, we "splat" the items array. This means each element of the array becomes its own node in the context:
-
-```
-Node 1: { name: apple, type: fruit }
-Node 2: { name: carrot, type: vegetable }
-Node 3: { name: banana, type: fruit }
-```
-
-## Step 3: Filtering the Nodes
-Next, we apply a filter to select only the nodes where type is fruit. The expression `.root.items[] | select(.type == "fruit")` filters the nodes:
-
-```
-Filtered Node 1: { name: apple, type: fruit }
-Filtered Node 2: { name: banana, type: fruit }
-```
-
-## Step 4: Extracting a Field
-Finally, we extract the name field from the filtered nodes using `.root.items[] | select(.type == "fruit") | .name` This results in:
-
-```
-apple
-banana
-```
-
-## Simple assignment example
-
-Given a document like:
-
-```yaml
-a: cat
-b: dog
-```
-
-with an expression:
-
-```
-.a = .b
-```
-
-Like math expressions - operator precedence is important. 
-
-The `=` operator takes two arguments, a `lhs` expression, which in this case is `.a` and `rhs` expression which is `.b`. 
-
-It pipes the current, lets call it 'root' context through the `lhs` expression of `.a` to return the node 
-
-```yaml
-cat
-```
-
-Side note: this node holds not only its value 'cat', but comments and metadata too, including path and parent information.
-
-The `=` operator then pipes the 'root' context through the `rhs` expression of `.b` to return the node
-
-```yaml
-dog
-```
-
-Both sides have now been evaluated, so now the operator copies across the value from the RHS (`.b`) to the LHS (`.a`), and it returns the now updated context:
-
-```yaml
-a: dog
-b: dog
-```
-
-## Complex assignment, operator precedence rules
-
-Just like math expressions - `yq` expressions have an order of precedence. The pipe `|` operator has a low order of precedence, so operators with higher precedence will get evaluated first. 
-
-Most of the time, this is intuitively what you'd want, for instance `.a = "cat" | .b = "dog"` is effectively: `(.a = "cat") | (.b = "dog")`.
-
-However, this is not always the case, particularly if you have a complex LHS or RHS expression, for instance if you want to select particular nodes to update. 
-
-Lets say you had:
-
-```yaml
-- name: bob
-  fruit: apple
-- name: sally
-  fruit: orange
-
-```
-
-Lets say you wanted to update the `sally` entry to have fruit: 'mango'. The _incorrect_ way to do that is:
-`.[] | select(.name == "sally") | .fruit = "mango"`.
-
-Because `|` has a low operator precedence, this will be evaluated (_incorrectly_) as : `(.[]) | (select(.name == "sally")) | (.fruit = "mango")`. What you'll see is only the updated segment returned:
-
-```yaml
-name: sally
-fruit: mango
-```
-
-**Important**: To properly update this YAML, you must wrap the entire LHS in parentheses. Think of it like using brackets in math to ensure the correct order of operations.
-`(.[] | select(.name == "sally") | .fruit) = "mango"`
-
-
-Now that entire LHS expression is passed to the 'assign' (`=`) operator, and the yaml is correctly updated and returned:
-
-
-```yaml
-- name: bob
-  fruit: apple
-- name: sally
-  fruit: mango
-
-```
-
-## Relative update (e.g. `|=`)
-There is another form of the `=` operator which we call the relative form. It's very similar to `=` but with one key difference when evaluating the RHS expression.
-
-In the plain form, we pass in the 'root' level context to the RHS expression. In relative form, we pass in _each result of the LHS_ to the RHS expression. Let's go through an example.
-
-Given a document like:
-
-```yaml
-a: 1
-b: thing
-```
-
-with an expression:
-
-```
-.a |= . + 1
-```
-
-Similar to the `=` operator, `|=` takes two operands, the LHS and RHS.
-
-It pipes the current context (the whole document) through the LHS expression of `.a` to get the node value:

-* string scalars: concatenate
-* maps: shallow merge (use the multiply operator (`*`) to deeply merge)

-# Anchor and Alias Operators
-
-Use the `alias` and `anchor` operators to read and write yaml aliases and anchors. The `explode` operator normalises a yaml file (dereference (or expands) aliases and remove anchor names).
-
-`yq` supports merge keys (like `<<: *blah`) from YAML 1.1. These are no longer part of the YAML 1.2 standard, but remain common in practice. Plain `<<:` keys are recognised as merge keys and round-trip as `<<:` without an explicit `!!merge` tag. When the source uses an explicit `!!merge` tag, that is preserved on output. Internally, when `yq` synthesises a `<<` map key (for example during merge operations), it tags the key as `!!merge` rather than `!!str`.
-
-
-## NOTE --yaml-fix-merge-anchor-to-spec flag
-`yq` doesn't merge anchors `<<:` to spec, in some circumstances it incorrectly overrides existing keys when the spec documents not to do that.
-
-To minimise disruption while still fixing the issue, a flag has been added to toggle this behaviour. This will first default to false; and log warnings to users. Then it will default to true (and still allow users to specify false if needed).
-
-This flag also enables advanced merging, like inline maps, as well as fixes to ensure when exploding a particular path, neighbours are not affect ed.
-
-Long story short, you should be setting this flag to true.
-
-See examples of the flag differences below, where LEGACY is with the flag off; and FIXED is with the flag on.

-# Assign (Update)
-
-This operator is used to update node values. It can be used in either the:
-

-Which will set the LHS node values equal to the RHS node values. The RHS expression is run against the matching nodes in the pipeline.

-This will do a similar thing to the plain form, but the RHS expression is run with _each LHS node as context_. This is useful for updating values based on old values, e.g. increment.

-# Boolean Operators
-
-The `or` and `and` operators take two parameters and return a boolean result. 
-
-`not` flips a boolean from true to false, or vice versa. 
-
-`any` will return `true` if there are any `true` values in an array sequence, and `all` will return true if _all_ elements in an array are true.
-
-`any_c(condition)` and `all_c(condition)` are like `any` and `all` but they take a condition expression that is used against each element to determine if it's `true`. Note: in `jq` you can simply pass a condition to `any` or `all` and it simply works - `yq` isn't that clever..yet
-
-These are most commonly used with the `select` operator to filter particular nodes.

-# Comment Operators
-
-Use these comment operators to set or retrieve comments. Note that line comments on maps/arrays are actually set on the _key_ node as opposed to the _value_ (map/array). See below for examples.
-
-Like the `=` and `|=` assign operators, the same syntax applies when updating comments:
-
-### plain form: `=`
-This will set the LHS nodes' comments equal to the expression on the RHS. The RHS is run against the matching nodes in the pipeline
-
-### relative form: `|=` 
-This is similar to the plain form, but it evaluates the RHS with _each matching LHS node as context_. This is useful if you want to set the comments as a relative expression of the node, for instance its value or path.
-
-## Set line comment
-Set the comment on the key node for more reliability (see below).
-
-Given a sample.yml file of:
-```yaml
-a: cat
-```
-then
-```bash
-yq '.a line_comment="single"' sample.yml
-```
-will output
-```yaml
-a: cat # single
-```
-
-## Set line comment of a maps/arrays
-For maps and arrays, you need to set the line comment on the _key_ node. This will also work for scalars.
-
-Given a sample.yml file of:
-```yaml
-a:
-  b: things
-```
-then
-```bash
-yq '(.a | key) line_comment="single"' sample.yml
-```
-will output
-```yaml
-a: # single
-  b: things
-```
-
-## Use update assign to perform relative updates
-Given a sample.yml file of:
-```yaml
-a: cat
-b: dog
-```
-then
-```bash
-yq '.. line_comment |= .' sample.yml
-```
-will output
-```yaml
-a: cat # cat
-b: dog # dog
-```
-
-## Where is the comment - map key example
-The underlying yaml parser can assign comments in a document to surprising nodes. Use an expression like this to find where you comment is. 'p' indicates the path, 'isKey' is if the node is a map key (as opposed to a map value).
-From this, you can see the 'hello-world-comment' is actually on the 'hello' key
-
-Given a sample.yml file of:
-```yaml
-hello: # hello-world-comment
-  message: world
-```
-then
-```bash
-yq '[... | {"p": path | join("."), "isKey": is_key, "hc": headComment, "lc": lineComment, "fc": footComment}]' sample.yml
-```
-will output
-```yaml
-- p: ""
-  isKey: false
-  hc: ""
-  lc: ""
-  fc: ""
-- p: hello
-  isKey: true
-  hc: ""
-  lc: hello-world-comment
-  fc: ""

-  hc: ""
-  lc: ""
-  fc: ""
-- p: hello.message
-  isKey: false
-  hc: ""
-  lc: ""
-  fc: ""
-```
-
-## Retrieve comment - map key example
-From the previous example, we know that the comment is on the 'hello' _key_ as a lineComment
-
-Given a sample.yml file of:
-```yaml
-hello: # hello-world-comment
-  message: world
-```
-then
-```bash
-yq '.hello | key | line_comment' sample.yml
-```
-will output
-```yaml
-hello-world-comment
-```
-
-## Where is the comment - array example
-The underlying yaml parser can assign comments in a document to surprising nodes. Use an expression like this to find where you comment is. 'p' indicates the path, 'isKey' is if the node is a map key (as opposed to a map value).
-From this, you can see the 'under-name-comment' is actually on the first child
-
-Given a sample.yml file of:
-```yaml
-name:
-  # under-name-comment
-  - first-array-child
-```
-then
-```bash
-yq '[... | {"p": path | join("."), "isKey": is_key, "hc": headComment, "lc": lineComment, "fc": footComment}]' sample.yml

-# Date Time
-
-Various operators for parsing and manipulating dates. 
-
-## Date time formatting
-This uses Golang's built in time library for parsing and formatting date times.
-
-When not specified, the RFC3339 standard is assumed `2006-01-02T15:04:05Z07:00` for parsing.
-
-To specify a custom parsing format, use the `with_dtf` operator. The first parameter sets the datetime parsing format for the expression in the second parameter. The expression can be any valid `yq` expression tree.
-
-```bash
-yq 'with_dtf("myformat"; .a + "3h" | tz("Australia/Melbourne"))'
-```
-
-See the [library docs](https://pkg.go.dev/time#pkg-constants) for examples of formatting options.
-
-
-## Timezones
-This uses Golang's built in LoadLocation function to parse timezones strings. See the [library docs](https://pkg.go.dev/time#LoadLocation) for more details.
-
-
-## Durations
-Durations are parsed using Golang's built in [ParseDuration](https://pkg.go.dev/time#ParseDuration) function.
-
-You can add durations to time using the `+` operator.
-
-## Format: from standard RFC3339 format
-Providing a single parameter assumes a standard RFC3339 datetime format. If the target format is not a valid yaml datetime format, the result will be a string tagged node.
-
-Given a sample.yml file of:
-```yaml
-a: 2001-12-15T02:59:43.1Z
-```
-then
-```bash
-yq '.a |= format_datetime("Monday, 02-Jan-06 at 3:04PM")' sample.yml
-```
-will output
-```yaml
-a: Saturday, 15-Dec-01 at 2:59AM
-```
-
-## Format: from custom date time
-Use with_dtf to set a custom datetime format for parsing.
-
-Given a sample.yml file of:
-```yaml
-a: Saturday, 15-Dec-01 at 2:59AM
-```
-then
-```bash
-yq '.a |= with_dtf("Monday, 02-Jan-06 at 3:04PM"; format_datetime("2006-01-02"))' sample.yml

-# Encoder / Decoder
-
-Encode operators will take the piped in object structure and encode it as a string in the desired format. The decode operators do the opposite, they take a formatted string and decode it into the relevant object structure.
-
-Note that you can optionally pass an indent value to the encode functions (see below).
-
-These operators are useful to process yaml documents that have stringified embedded yaml/json/props in them.
-
-
-| Format | Decode (from string) | Encode (to string) |
-| --- | -- | --|
-| Yaml | from_yaml/@yamld | to_yaml(i)/@yaml |
-| JSON | from_json/@jsond | to_json(i)/@json |
-| Properties | from_props/@propsd  | to_props/@props |
-| CSV | from_csv/@csvd | to_csv/@csv |
-| TSV | from_tsv/@tsvd | to_tsv/@tsv |
-| XML | from_xml/@xmld | to_xml(i)/@xml |
-| Base64 | @base64d | @base64 |
-| URI | @urid | @uri |
-| Shell |  | @sh |
-
-
-See CSV and TSV [documentation](https://mikefarah.gitbook.io/yq/usage/csv-tsv) for accepted formats.
-
-XML uses the `--xml-attribute-prefix` and `xml-content-name` flags to identify attributes and content fields.
-
-
-Base64 assumes [rfc4648](https://rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc4648.html) encoding. Encoding and decoding both assume that the content is a utf-8 string and not binary content.

-# Env Variable Operators
-
-These operators are used to handle environment variables usage in expressions and documents. While environment variables can, of course, be passed in via your CLI with string interpolation, this often comes with complex quote escaping and can be tricky to write and read. 
-
-There are three operators:
-
--  `env` which takes a single environment variable name and parse the variable as a yaml node (be it a map, array, string, number of boolean) 
-- `strenv` which also takes a single environment variable name, and always parses the variable as a string.
-- `envsubst` which you pipe strings into and it interpolates environment variables in strings using [envsubst](https://github.com/a8m/envsubst). 
-
-
-## EnvSubst Options
-You can optionally pass envsubst any of the following options:
-
-  - nu: NoUnset, this will fail if there are any referenced variables that are not set
-  - ne: NoEmpty, this will fail if there are any referenced variables that are empty
-  - ff: FailFast, this will abort on the first failure (rather than collect all the errors)
-
-E.g:
-`envsubst(ne, ff)` will fail on the first empty variable.
-
-See [Imposing Restrictions](https://github.com/a8m/envsubst#imposing-restrictions) in the `envsubst` documentation for more information, and below for examples.
-
-## Tip
-To replace environment variables across all values in a document, `envsubst` can be used with the recursive descent operator
-as follows:
-
-```bash
-yq '(.. | select(tag == "!!str")) |= envsubst' file.yaml
-```
-
-## Disabling env operators
-If required, you can use the `--security-disable-env-ops` to disable env operations.
-
-
-## Read string environment variable
-Running
-```bash
-myenv="cat meow" yq --null-input '.a = env(myenv)'
