Features and limitations #
Generally, this library tries to mimic the reference implementations, except for the filtering.
Evaluated filtering expressions (e.g. $..book[?(@.price<10)]
) support is limited.
Instead, use the callback-kind of filters.
/// Select all elements with price under 20
final path = JsonPath(r'$.store..[?discounted]', filters: {
'discounted': (match) =>
match.value is Map && match.value['price'] is num && match.value['price'] < 20
});
