jc - JSON CLI output utility ss Parser

Usage (cli):

    specify --ss as the first argument if the piped input is coming from ss

Usage (module):

    import jc.parsers.ss
    result = jc.parsers.ss.parse(ss_command_output)

Limitations:

    Extended information options like -e and -p are not supported and may cause parsing irregularities

Compatibility:

    'linux'

Examples:

      $ sudo ss -a | jc --ss -p
