JMESPath

v2.4.0 Modules

jmespath.cfc

An implementation of JMESPath for ColdFusion. This implementation supports searching JSON documents as well as native Coldfusion structs and arrays.

Commandbox Installation

$ box install jmespath

Basic Usage

Call JMESPath.search with a valid JMESPath search expression and data to search. It will return the extracted values.

property name="JMESPath" inject="jmespath"; //wirebox

JMESPath = new models.JmesPath(); //Instantiate Object

JMESPath.search({ foo: { bar: { baz: "value" }}}, 'foo.bar') //{baz: "value"}

In addition to accessing nested values, you can exact values from arrays.

Basic

var data = { foo: { bar: { baz: 'correct' } } };
JMESPath.search(data, 'foo'); // {"bar":{"baz":"correct"}}
JMESPath.search(data, 'foo.bar'); // {"baz":"correct"}
JMESPath.search(data, '*.bar'); // {"baz":"correct"}

var data = { one: 1, two: 2, three: 3 };
JMESPath.search(data, 'one < two'); // true
JMESPath.search(data, 'one == two'); // false

var data = { foo: [{ bar: ['one', 'two'] }, { bar: ['three', 'four'] }, { bar: ['five'] }] };
JMESPath.search(data, 'foo[*].bar[1]'); // ["two","four"]

Slice

var data = { foo: [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9], bar: { baz: 1 } };
JMESPath.search(data, 'foo[10:0: -1]'); // [9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1]

Pipe

var data = { foo: [{ bar: [{ baz: 'one' }, { baz: 'two' }] }, { bar: [{ baz: 'three' }, { baz: 'four' }] }] };
JMESPath.search(data, 'foo[*].bar[*] | [0][0]'); // {"baz":"one"}

Indices

var data = { foo: { bar: ['zero', 'one', 'two'] } };
JMESPath.search(data, 'foo.bar[2]'); // "two"
JMESPath.search(data, 'foo.bar[3]'); // null
JMESPath.search(data, 'foo.bar[-1]'); // "two"

Multiselect

var data = { foo: { bar: 1, baz: [2, 3, 4], buz: 2 } };
JMESPath.search(data, 'foo.[bar,baz[0]]'); // [1,2]
JMESPath.search(data, 'foo.[bar,baz[1]]'); // [1,3]
JMESPath.search(data, 'foo.{bar: bar, buz: buz}'); // {"bar":1,"buz":2}

Current

var data = { foo: [{ name: 'a' }, { name: 'b' }], bar: { baz: 'qux' } };
JMESPath.search(data, '@'); // {"foo":[{"name":"a"},{"name":"b"}],"bar":{"baz":"qux"}}
JMESPath.search(data, '@.bar'); // {"baz":"qux"}
JMESPath.search(data, '@.foo[0]'); // {"name":"a"}

Filters

var data = { foo: [{ age: 20 }, { age: 25 }, { age: 30 }] };
JMESPath.search(data, 'foo[?age > `25`]'); // [{"age":30}]
JMESPath.search(data, 'foo[?age >= `25`]'); // [{"age":25},{"age":30}]
JMESPath.search(data, 'foo[?age > `30`]'); // []
JMESPath.search(data, 'foo[?age < `25`]'); // [{"age":20}]
JMESPath.search(data, 'foo[?age <= `25`]'); // [{"age":20},{"age":25}]
JMESPath.search(data, 'foo[?age < `20`]'); // []
JMESPath.search(data, 'foo[?age == `20`]'); // [{"age":20}]
JMESPath.search(data, 'foo[?age != `20`]'); // [{"age":25},{"age":30}]

Filter boolean functions

contains, ends_with, starts_with;

Math functions

abs, avg, ceil, floor, max min, sum

Sort functions

sort, sort_by, max_by, min_by, reverse;

Conversion functions

to_array, to_string, to_number, to_entries;

See the JMESPath specification for a full list of supported search expressions.

JSON Documents

If you have JSON documents on disk, or IO objects that contain JSON documents, you can pass them as the data argument.

JMESPath.search(expression, expandPath('/path/to/data.json'));

fileContent = fileRead(expandPath('./path/to/data.json'), 'utf-8');
JMESPath.search(expression, fileContent);
