Not tested on a device yet. What that means

yq in Breadstick

Breadstick runs Debian's own yq package for ARM64, the build a Debian 13 computer with an ARM processor installs, so yq should behave as it does on a Linux PC. It is a command line program rather than an app with a window of its own: you run it by typing its command in Breadstick's Terminal, or in any terminal window on the Linux desktop, and it needs no Desktop or Floating session running.

Commands in the package

  • yq
  • tomlq
  • xq-python

Type one in Breadstick's Terminal to run it.

Text and data tools work on files and pipes in the Terminal as on any Linux system, including files in your Android folders once Device files is granted. More in the docs: The Terminal.

About yq

From Debian's package description

yq transcodes YAML documents to JSON and passes them to jq. The package also includes xq, which transcodes XML to JSON using xmltodict and pipes it to jq, and tomlq, which uses the toml library to transcode TOML to JSON, then pipes it to jq

From Debian's description of the yq package, under that package's license.
