{"license": "Apache License 2.0", "name": "awscli", "metadata_version": "2.0", "generator": "bdist_wheel (0.24.0)", "summary": "Universal Command Line Environment for AWS.", "run_requires": [{"environment": "python_version!=\"2.6\"", "requires": ["PyYAML>=3.10,<=5.1"]}, {"requires": ["botocore==1.12.191", "colorama>=0.2.5,<=0.3.9", "docutils>=0.10", "rsa>=3.1.2,<=3.5.0", "s3transfer>=0.2.0,<0.3.0"]}, {"environment": "python_version==\"2.6\"", "requires": ["PyYAML>=3.10,<=3.13", "argparse>=1.1"]}], "version": "1.16.201", "extensions": {"python.details": {"project_urls": {"Home": "http://aws.amazon.com/cli/"}, "document_names": {"description": "DESCRIPTION.rst"}, "contacts": [{"role": "author", "name": "Amazon Web Services"}]}}, "classifiers": ["Development Status :: 5 - Production/Stable", "Intended Audience :: Developers", "Intended Audience :: System Administrators", "Natural Language :: English", "License :: OSI Approved :: Apache Software License", "Programming Language :: Python", "Programming Language :: Python :: 2", "Programming Language :: Python :: 2.6", "Programming Language :: Python :: 2.7", "Programming Language :: Python :: 3", "Programming Language :: Python :: 3.3", "Programming Language :: Python :: 3.4", "Programming Language :: Python :: 3.5", "Programming Language :: Python :: 3.6", "Programming Language :: Python :: 3.7"], "extras": []}
$ cat somefile.json | psonpath -exp '$..run_requires.[1]'
{
    requires   [
        [0] "botocore==1.12.191",
        [1] "colorama>=0.2.5,<=0.3.9",
        [2] "docutils>=0.10",
        [3] "rsa>=3.1.2,<=3.5.0",
        [4] "s3transfer>=0.2.0,<0.3.0"
