# jsonpath
|
|
|
|
This package extends the [json.Decoder](https://golang.org/pkg/encoding/json/#Decoder) to support navigating a stream of JSON tokens. You should be able to use this extended Decoder places where a json.Decoder would have been used.
|
|
|
|
This Decoder has the following enhancements...
|
|
* The [Scan](https://godoc.org/github.com/exponent-io/jsonpath/#Decoder.Scan) method supports scanning a JSON stream while extracting particular values along the way using [PathActions](https://godoc.org/github.com/exponent-io/jsonpath#PathActions).
|
|
* The [SeekTo](https://godoc.org/github.com/exponent-io/jsonpath#Decoder.SeekTo) method supports seeking forward in a JSON token stream to a particular path.
|
|
* The [Path](https://godoc.org/github.com/exponent-io/jsonpath#Decoder.Path) method returns the path of the most recently parsed token.
|
|
* The [Token](https://godoc.org/github.com/exponent-io/jsonpath#Decoder.Token) method has been modified to distinguish between strings that are object keys and strings that are values. Object key strings are returned as the [KeyString](https://godoc.org/github.com/exponent-io/jsonpath#KeyString) type rather than a native string.

## Installation
|
|
|
|
go get -u github.com/exponent-io/jsonpath
|
|
|
|
## Example Usage
|
|
|
|
#### SeekTo
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
import "github.com/exponent-io/jsonpath"
|
|
|
|
var j = []byte(`[
|
|
{"Space": "YCbCr", "Point": {"Y": 255, "Cb": 0, "Cr": -10}},
|
|
{"Space": "RGB", "Point": {"R": 98, "G": 218, "B": 255}}
|
|
]`)
|
|
|
|
w := json.NewDecoder(bytes.NewReader(j))
|
|
var v interface{}
|
|
|
|
w.SeekTo(1, "Point", "G")
|
|
w.Decode(&v) // v is 218
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
#### Scan with PathActions
|
|
|
|
```go
|
|
var j = []byte(`{"colors":[
|
|
{"Space": "YCbCr", "Point": {"Y": 255, "Cb": 0, "Cr": -10, "A": 58}},
|
|
{"Space": "RGB", "Point": {"R": 98, "G": 218, "B": 255, "A": 231}}
|
|
]}`)
|
|
|
|
var actions PathActions
|
|
|
|
// Extract the value at Point.A
|
|
actions.Add(func(d *Decoder) error {
|
|
var alpha int
|
|
err := d.Decode(&alpha)
|
|
fmt.Printf("Alpha: %v\n", alpha)
|
|
return err
|
|
}, "Point", "A")
|
|
|
|
w := NewDecoder(bytes.NewReader(j))
|
|
w.SeekTo("colors", 0)
|
|
|
|
var ok = true
|
|
var err error
|
|
for ok {
|
|
ok, err = w.Scan(&actions)
|
|
if err != nil && err != io.EOF {
|
|
panic(err)
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
