Q: Adding field to json with jq, forcing type I need to add a float field to a json, I'm doing somthing like :
echo '{"field":' '"value"}' | jq --arg id 21841453190106 --arg price 1.2 '.+ {$price}'

getting:
{
  "field": "value",
  "price": "1.2"
}

I'd like to have:
{
  "field": "value",
  "price": 1.2
}

thanks
EDIT: thanks to 0stone0 :
echo '{"field":' '"value"}' | jq --arg id 21841453190106 --argjson price 1 '.+ {$price}'

gives:
{
  "field": "value",
  "price": 1
}

any way to have
{
  "field": "value",
  "price": 1.0
}

?
