Drastically Reduced YAML / JSON Query

positional arguments:
  query                 The query (simplest form of yq/jq syntax, default is
                        '.').
  input_file            The input file name. By default, data will be read
                        from standard input.

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  -v, --verbose         Output all messages including debug level
  -q, --quiet           Limit message output to errors
  --version             Print version and exit
  --modify-in-place     Modify the input file in place instead of writing the
                        result to standard output.

Output options:
  control how output will be formatted

  -of {JSON,YAML}, --output-format {JSON,YAML}
                        File format. By default, the detected input format is
                        used.
  -oi {2,4,8}, --output-indent {2,4,8}
                        Indentation depth of blocks, in spaces (default: 2).
  -osk, --output-sort-keys
                        Sort mapping keys. By default, mapping keys are left
                        in input order.
