(1) Searches for all values that match the JSONPath expression expr
and replaces them with the specified value
(2) Searches for all values that match a JSONPath expression expr
and, for each result,
calls a callback provided by the user with a path and mutable reference to the value.
(3)-(4) Same as (1-2) except that alloc
is used to allocate memory during expression compilation and evaluation.
root |
JSON value |
expr |
JSONPath expression string |
new_value |
The value to use as replacement |
callback (until 0.161.0) |
A function object that accepts a const reference to a Json value
and returns a Json value.
It must have function call signature equivalent to
Json fun(const Json& val);
|
callback (since 0.161.0) |
A function object that accepts a path and a reference to a Json value.
It must have function call signature equivalent to
void fun(const Json::string_view_type& path, Json& val);
|
Throws a jsonpath_error if JSONPath evaluation fails.
The examples use the sample data file books.json
