Escape format question

[Piping]

Hi,

Thanks for this nice tool. I am playing with action_logger.sh example, and it is hard to understand the quoting inside. or the "event_format" described in readme.md.

I used jq to feed json into the rofi-block. But it does not properly output the line.

How to set this code set proper quoting format?

{"name":"{{name_escaped}}", "value":"{{value_escaped}}"}

My script:

 #!/bin/bash

 ACTIONS=""

 echo '{"input action":"send", "prompt":"updating input also logs action" }'

 jsonfile=$(mktemp)
 log_action(){
     echo "$ACTIONS" | jq -c '{ lines: [.]} }' | tee $jsonfile 1>&2
     cat $jsonfile
 }

 if IFS= read -r line; then
     ACTIONS="$line"
     log_action
 fi

 while IFS= read -r line; do
     ACTIONS="$line"
     log_action
 done
