For simple JSON tasks jq is a versatile tool for querying, manipulating and creating JSON within a Shell script. You'll find a lot of usage examples in the web and of course in the excellent jq documentation.
For anything more complex: Use a decent scripting language of your choice, which supports JSON-processing.

template::plugin::json::escape
Template::Plugin::JSON::Escape(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation Template::Plugin::JSON::Escape(3pm)
NAME
Template::Plugin::JSON::Escape - Adds a .json vmethod and a json filter.
SYNOPSIS
[% USE JSON.Escape( pretty => 1 ) %];
<script type="text/javascript">
var foo = [% foo.json %];
var bar = [% json_string | json %]
</script>
or read in JSON
[% USE JSON.Escape %]
[% data = JSON.Escape.json_decode(json) %]
[% data.thing %]
DESCRIPTION
This plugin allows you to embed JSON strings in HTML. In the output, special characters such as "<" and "&" are escaped as "uxxxx" to
prevent XSS attacks.
It also provides decoding function to keep compatibility with Template::Plugin::JSON.
FEATURES
USE JSON.Escape
Any options on the USE line are passed through to the JSON object, much like "to_json" in JSON.
json vmethod
A ".json" vmethod converts scalars, arrays and hashes into corresponding JSON strings.
[% json_stuct = { foo => 42, bar => [ 1, 2, 3 ] } %]
<script>
var json = [% json_struct.json %];
</script>
<span onclick="doSomething([% json_struct.json %]);">
json filter
A "json" filter escapes "<", ">", "&", "+", "U+2028" and "U+2029" as "uxxxx". In the attribute, you may just use an "html" filter.
[% json_string = '{ "foo": 42, "bar": [ 1, 2, 3 ] }' %]
<script>
var json = [% json_string | json %];
</script>
<span onclick="doSomething([% json_string | html %]);">
json_decode method
A "json_decode" method allow you to convert from a JSON string into a corresponding data structure.
[% SET json_struct = JSON.Escape.json_decode(json_string) %]
[% json_struct.foo | html %]
