A flexible JSONPath engine for Python.
We follow RFC 9535 and test against the JSONPath Compliance Test Suite.

JSONPath RFC 9535 - A minimal, slightly cleanr Python implementation of RFC 9535. If you're not interested JSONPath sytax beyond that defined in RFC 9535, you might choose jsonpath-rfc9535 over python-jsonpath.
jsonpath-rfc9535 also includes utilities for verifying and testing the JSONPath Compliance Test Suite. Most notably the nondeterministic behavior of some JSONPath selectors.
-
JSON P3 - RFC 9535 implemented in TypeScript. JSON P3 does not include all the non-standard features of Python JSONPath, but does define some optional extra syntax.
-
Ruby JSON P3 - RFC 9535, RFC 6901 and RFC 6902 implemented in Ruby.
import jsonpath data = { "users": [ {"name": "Sue", "score": 100}, {"name": "John", "score": 86}, {"name": "Sally", "score": 84}, {"name": "Jane", "score": 55}, ] } user_names = jsonpath.findall("$.users[?@.score < 100].name", data) print(user_names) # ['John', 'Sally', 'Jane']
We include an RFC 6901 compliant implementation of JSON Pointer. See JSON Pointer quick start, guide and API reference
from jsonpath import pointer data = { "users": [ {"name": "Sue", "score": 100}, {"name": "John", "score": 86}, {"name": "Sally", "score": 84}, {"name": "Jane", "score": 55}, ] } sue_score = pointer.resolve("/users/0/score", data) print(sue_score) # 100 jane_score = pointer.resolve(["users", 3, "score"], data) print(jane_score) # 55
We also include an RFC 6902 compliant implementation of JSON Patch. See JSON Patch quick start and API reference
from jsonpath import patch patch_operations = [ {"op": "add", "path": "/some/foo", "value": {"foo": {}}}, {"op": "add", "path": "/some/foo", "value": {"bar": []}}, {"op": "copy", "from": "/some/other", "path": "/some/foo/else"}, {"op": "add", "path": "/some/foo/bar/-", "value": 1}, ] data = {"some": {"other": "thing"}} patch.apply(patch_operations, data) print(data) # {'some': {'other': 'thing', 'foo': {'bar': [1], 'else': 'thing'}}}
