Hi,
I'm trying to parse the output of `doveadm -f json who`[0] and am running into
a small issue when it returns data about multiple users: the stream that is
emitted in that case is not valid json.
dovecot -version tells me dovecot 2.3.21 (47349e2482), more specifically, this
is the version shipped in ubuntu 24.04, 1:2.3.21+dfsg1-2ubuntu5
doveadm -f json who
[{"username":"<REDACTED>","connections":"4","service":"imap","pids":"(272307
270876 270872
270869)","ips":"(2001:<REDACTED>:7488)"}],{"username":"<REDACTED>","connections":"2","service":"imap","pids":"(271469
271465)","ips":"(2a02:<REDACTED>:9c28)"}
When trying to pretty print this with jq, it complains about invalid json:
doveadm -f json who|jq
[
{
"username": "<REDACTED>",
"connections": "4",
"service": "imap",
"pids": "(272307 270876 270872 270869)",
"ips": "(2001:<REDACTED>0:7488)"
}
]
jq: parse error: Expected value before ',' at line 1, column 167
Is this expected behaviour? I would have expected a list of user objects, and
then it seems like the list-closing bracket that is currently at the end of the
first user object should have been at the end of the last user object.
I can code around this in my parser, but would rather not.
Best,
Jasper
[0] actually I'm parsing the output of the doveadm http api, but that just
seems to copy the data from the json format in there verbatim
