JsonPath Component
==================

[](#jsonpath-component)

The JsonPath component eases JSON navigation using the JSONPath syntax as described in [RFC 9535](https://www.rfc-editor.org/rfc/rfc9535.html).

Getting Started
---------------

[](#getting-started)

```
composer require symfony/json-path
```

```
use Symfony\Component\JsonPath\JsonCrawler;

$json = find('$.store.book[?match(@.author, "[A-Z].*el.+")]');
$result = $crawler->find("$.store.book[?(@.category == 'fiction')].title");
```

Updating the Compliance Test Suite
----------------------------------

[](#updating-the-compliance-test-suite)

The compliance test suite is gathered from the [JSONPath Test Suite](https://github.com/jsonpath-standard/jsonpath-compliance-test-suite).

When new commits are pushed to the upstream repository, it is necessary to gather them by following these steps:

- Update the `reference` field of `composer.json` to the latest commit hash of the `jsonpath-standard/jsonpath-compliance-test-suite` package
- Update the `version` field to the date of the commit
- Repeat the steps above for the `composer.json` file present at the root level of the `symfony/symfony` repository
- Run `composer update`
- Ensure the tests pass
