# jc.parsers.jobs

jc - JSON Convert `jobs` command output parser

Also supports the `-l` option.

The "Magic" syntax is not supported since the `jobs` command is a shell
builtin.

Usage (cli):

    $ jobs | jc --jobs

Usage (module):

    import jc
    result = jc.parse('jobs', jobs_command_output)

Schema:

    [
      {
        "job_number":   integer,
        "pid":          integer,
        "history":      string,
        "status":       string,
        "command":      string
      }
    ]

Example:

    $ jobs -l | jc --jobs -p
    [
      {
        "job_number": 1,
        "pid": 5283,
        "status": "Running",
        "command": "sleep 10000 &"
      },
      {
        "job_number": 2,
        "pid": 5284,
        "status": "Running",
        "command": "sleep 10100 &"
      },
      {
        "job_number": 3,
        "pid": 5285,
        "history": "previous",
        "status": "Running",
        "command": "sleep 10001 &"
      },

      }
    ]

    $ jobs -l | jc --jobs -p -r
