Read Javascript processing instructions from file #172

Hi

Is this possible, rather than using a string?

So I would like to do this:

head -n 10 data.json | fx -r -f instructions.js

Much like jq.

Thanks for your attention,

Tom

What about https://github.com/google/zx?

head -n 10 data.json |  zx file.js

Thanks for the quick response!

Not sure I can see the similarities between fx and zx. I was hoping to be able to use fx to view after running js file.

value=$(<core.js) && head -n 10 data.json | fx $value

That was what I was looking for, sorry, I'm not great at command line.
