Use a single template for single field output

``` glaze json misc/test-data/[123].json --template '{{.a}}-{{.b}}: {{.d.f}}' ```

Exampletemplatesjsonyamltemplate

You can use go templates to either create a new field (called _0 per default). Per default, the templates are applied at the input level, when rows are actually still full blown objects (if reading in from JSON for example).

By default, templates are executed at the "object" level, that is before the input data has been converted to flattened rows. This means that the entire input object will be replaced by the result of the template, creating a single column with the name _0.

❯ glaze json misc/test-data/[123].json --template '{{.a}}-{{.b}}: {{.d.f}}'

| _0                  |
+---------------------+
| 1-2: 7              |
| 10-20: 70           |
| 100-200: <no value> |
