jmesrange v1.0.2

JMESRange

Express middleware for using JMESPath expression as range headers to filter/transform JSON responses

Install

Install the package with npm:

$ npm install express-range

Configure

Create middleware:

var app = express();
app.use(jmesrange());

Usage Example

Taken from the example app.js, running on localhost:3000:

Curl the raw /data endpoint:

~/projects/jmesrange-express$ curl -i http://localhost:3000/data ; echo
HTTP/1.1 200 OK
X-Powered-By: Express
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8
Content-Length: 145
ETag: W/"91-WKA9iMSbOx/Beoi0W4K6yDgXTY8"

Connection: keep-alive

{"locations":[{"name":"Seattle","state":"WA"},{"name":"New York","state":"NY"},{"name":"Bellevue","state":"WA"},{"name":"Olympia","state":"WA"}]}

Now curl with a range: jmesrange locations[?state == 'WA'].name header:

~/projects/jmesrange-express$ curl -i -H "range: jmesrange locations[?state == 'WA'].name" http://localhost:3000/data ; echo
HTTP/1.1 206 Partial Content
X-Powered-By: Express
Content-Range: locations[?state == 'WA'].name
Content-Type: application/json; charset=utf-8

The output has been munged by JMESRange! Who needs graphql anyway? ;)
