You’re saying $content would have a path to a template to include and would be evaluated as such?

I think I can add that.

instead of

!content.hah

using

!$content

and change the file to load from the variable.

I gave it a shot myself but couldn’t manage to get it to work…

I spent all day looking for a powerful yet easy-to-use XPath-like JSON query language.
Yours evaluated as top entry (so congrats!).
However, during testing I discovered JPath has problems with nested properties.
I extended your demo ‘library’ JSON dataset by making objects of the chapters of a book (see below) and then tried to query it like this:

var somevalue = jpath.query(‘books[title == "Brief History of time"][0]/chapters[name == "Chapter 1"][0]/contents’);

However that results in null. But when I split the query in two, using the result of the first part to create a new JPath object and use that to query the second part, it works fine:

var somevalue = new JPath(jpath.query(‘books[title == "Brief History of time"][0]‘)).query(‘/chapters[name == "Chapter 1"][0]/contents’); // results in ‘A lot of paragraphs’ which is what I expected.

Can you shed your light on this?

Also, the ‘and’ and ‘or’ operators do not seem to work correctly: when I enter this query:

var somevalue = jpath.query(‘books[title == "Brief History of time" and isbn == "1234-ABCD"][0]‘);

it results in null again.

Here are the data I used:

var library = {
‘name’ :’My Library’,
‘@open’ : ’2007-17-7′,
‘address’ : {
‘city’ : ‘Springfield’,
‘zip’ : ’12345′,
‘state’ : ‘MI’,
‘street’ : ‘Mockingbird Lane’
},
‘books’:[
{
'title' : 'Harry Potter',
'isbn' : '1234-1234',
'category' : 'Childrens',
'available' : '3',
'chapters' : [ 'Chapter 1', 'Chapter 2' ]
},
{
‘title’ : ‘Brief History of time’,
‘isbn’ : ’1234-ABCD’,
‘category’ : ‘Science’,
‘chapters’ : [
{'name': 'Chapter 1',
'contents': 'A lot of paragraphs'
},
{'name': 'Chapter 2',
'contents': 'Also a lot of paragrahps'
}
]
},
{
‘title’ : ‘Lord of the Rings’,
‘isbn’ : ’1234-PPPP’,
‘category’ : ‘Fiction’,
‘chapters’ : [ 'Section 1', 'Section 2' ]
}
],
‘categories’ : [
{'name':'Childrens', 'description':'Childrens books'},
{'name':'Science', 'description':'Books about science'},
{'name':'Fiction', 'description':'Fiction books'}
]};

Thanks in advance,
