objgrab v1.0.5

ObjGrab

Parses objects based on json style selector.

complex selectors are somewhat supported

I created a pipe command line process to demonstrate it.

echo '{"hello":{"World":{"$":["Hi Maa", "Hows Things"]}}}'| ./parse.js 'hello' 'hello.World.$[0]'

using within a node js project is done like so.

var objGrab = require('objgrab');

var jsonObject = JSON.parse('{"hello":{"World":{"$":["Hi Maa", "Hows Things"]}}}');
var selectorString = "hello.World.$[0]";
var parsedValue = objGrab.parse(jsonObject, selectorString);
