Adding format characters such as \t and \n to a string of JSON so they will work in a linux echo command

I have an open ssh connection to a linux machine. I am creating a tempfile and need to write formatted Json to it using the echo command. Is there anyway I can easily add the \t and \n where necessary so it ends up being formatted json in the tempfile? Before I resort to creating a function that parses through it and manually adds the \t and \n.

jsonData := "{\"data\":[{\"id\": \"1000\", \"name\":\"Product 1\"}, {\"id\": \"2000\", \"name\":\"Product 2\"}, {\"id\": \"3000\", \"name\":\"Product 3\"}]}"

// Create a temp file
session1, err := conn.NewSession()
if err != nil {
	panic("Failed to create session: " + err.Error())
}
defer session1.Close()

var tmpFileName bytes.Buffer
session1.Stdout = &tmpFileName
if err := session1.Run("mktemp"); err != nil {
	panic("Failed to run: " + err.Error())
}

// Write json to temp file
session2, err := conn.NewSession()
if err != nil {
	panic("Failed to create session: " + err.Error())
}
defer session2.Close()

if err := session2.Run("echo " + jsonData + ">> " + tmpFileName.String()); err != nil {
	panic("Failed to run: " + err.Error())
}

You can use json.MarshalIndent:

out, err := json.MarshalIndent(json.RawMessage(jsonData), "", "    ")
if err != nil {
    panic(err)
}

cmd := exec.Command("echo", string(out))
cmd.Stdout = os.Stdout
if err := cmd.Run(); err != nil {
	panic(err)
}

Depending on how session2.Run is implemented you may need to escape and explicitly quote the formatted json string.

// this is a naive single quote bash-specific escape, if this isn't
// sufficient for your use case you'll have to improve on it.
jsonData = strings.ReplaceAll(string(out), "'", `'"'"'`)
cmd := fmt.Sprintf("echo '%s' >> %s", jsonData, tmpFileName)
if err := session2.Run(cmd); err != nil {
    panic(err)
}
