## Remove property
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Remove property from a JSON array of objects:
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
|
"member_inputs": [
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
|
"name": "Thomas",
|
|
|
|
"input_type": "select"
|
|
|
|
},
|
|
|
|
{
|
|
|
|
"name": "Martha",
|
|
|
|
"input_type": "text"
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
]
|
|
|
|
}
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
|
|
jq '.member_details |= map(del(.input_type))' memberDetails.json
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
|

|
> Add '-i' to modify the source file directly (in-place)
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
> Multiple properties can be deleted simply by chaining,
|
|
|
|
> e.g.`(del(.input_type, .another_property))`
|
