Neuroglia.Data.Expressions.JQ 4.18.1

Neuroglia.Data.Expressions.JQ

A .NET package to evaluate expressions using jq. This library integrates jq with .NET applications, making it simple to work with JSON data transformations and expressions.

Getting Started

Installation

1. Add the package to your .NET project:

dotnet add package Neuroglia.Data.Expressions.JQ

2. Ensure jq is installed:

apt-get update
apt-get install jq -y

For other systems, refer to the official jq installation guide.

Configuration

Optionally, configure the JQ Expression Evaluator in your application's Dependency Injection (DI) container:

services.AddJQExpressionEvaluator(options => 
{
    options.UseSerializer<MyJsonSerializerImplementation>(); // Optional: Defaults to the first registered `IJsonSerializer`
}, ServiceLifetime.Singleton);

Usage

After setup, you can start using the evaluator to process expressions.

Example Code

var defaultEvaluator = serviceProvider.GetRequiredService<IExpressionEvaluator>();
var explicitEvaluator = serviceProvider.GetRequiredService<IExpressionEvaluatorProvider>().GetEvaluator("jq");

var expression = "{ \"foo\": .foo, \"bar\": $param1.bar }";
var input = new
{
    foo = "bar"
};
var arguments = new Dictionary<string, object>()
{
    { 
        "param1", 
        new
        {
            bar = "baz"
        } 
    }
};

var result = await defaultEvaluator.EvaluateAsync(expression, input, arguments, typeof(MyResult));

public class MyResult
{
    public string Foo { get; set; }
    public string Bar { get; set; }
}
