This is used to filter out duplicated items in an array.

|
||||
## Unique array of scalars (string/numbers)
|
||||
Given a sample.yml file of:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
- 1
|
||||
- 2
|
||||
- 3
|
||||
- 2
|
||||
```
|
||||
then
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
yq eval 'unique' sample.yml
|
||||
```
|
||||
will output
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
- 1
|
||||
- 2
|
||||
- 3
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Unique nulls
|
||||
Unique works on the node value, so it considers different representations of nulls to be different
|
||||
|
||||
Given a sample.yml file of:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
- ~
|
||||
- null
|
||||
- ~
|
||||
- null
|
||||
```
|
||||
then
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
yq eval 'unique' sample.yml
|
||||
```
|
||||
will output
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
- ~
|
||||
- null
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Unique all nulls
|
||||
Run against the node tag to unique all the nulls
|
||||
|
||||
Given a sample.yml file of:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
- ~
|
||||
- null
|
||||
- ~
|
||||
- null
|
||||
```
|
||||
then
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
yq eval 'unique_by(tag)' sample.yml
|
||||
```
|
||||
will output
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
- ~
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Unique array object fields
|
||||
Given a sample.yml file of:
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
- name: harry
|
||||
pet: cat
|
||||
- name: billy
|
||||
pet: dog
|
||||
- name: harry
|
||||
pet: dog
|
||||
```
|
||||
then
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
yq eval 'unique_by(.name)' sample.yml
|
||||
```
|
||||
will output
|
||||
```yaml
|
||||
- name: harry
|
||||
pet: cat
|
||||
- name: billy
|
||||
pet: dog
|
||||
```
