Description VUB HPC 2022-02-18 03:07:09 MST 
Most slurm commands have a --json/--yaml option to output in json/yaml since 21.08.

However, sstat is still missing this. Could these very useful options also be added to sstat?

Adding YAML/JSON support for sstat is something we are not actively pursuing at this time, nor do we have plans to tackle this in the near future. There are some design nuances to how sstat works that do not exist in other command that support YAML/JSON that would need to be addressed.

If a site like yours is interested in sponsoring this, purchasing development time, then we may be able to consider the request as part of a future release.
