Arrays with Objects

[PaulKruger]

I didn't notice whether you had or planned to develop functions that included arrays that contained objects.

So for example if wanted to return true if there is an apple pie in group of pies:
var rules = { "and" : [
{"<" : [ { "var" : "temp" }, 110 ]},
{"==" : [ { "var" : "pies.filling" }, "apple" ] }
] };

var data = { "temp" : 100, "pies" : [{ "filling" : "apple" }, { "filling" : "cherry" }]};

jsonLogic.apply(rules, data);
// true

You could build a custom operaton using dotty's search method and then using that with in, like

jsonLogic.add_operation('var_search', function(key){
  return dotty.search(this, key); //In custom operations "this" is bound to data
});

var rules = { "and" : [
  {"<" : [ { "var" : "temp" }, 110 ]},
  {"in" : ["apple", { "var_search" : "pies.*.filling" } ] }
] };

var data = { "temp" : 100, "pies" : [{ "filling" : "apple" }, { "filling" : "cherry" }]};

jsonLogic.apply(rules, data);
// true

Does that work?

Had the same problem.

This is a common use case, and should be added to core.

@jwadhams thank you for the solution.

@PaulKruger please see #25

Thanks for your example above.

I am trying to filter on multiple nested fields. However, it isn't returning any results. Any suggestions?

var rules = { "and" : [
  {"<" : [ { "var" : "temp" }, 110 ]},
  {"in" : ["apple", { "var_search" : "pies.*.filling" } ] },
  {"in" : [10, { ">" : "pies.*.score" } ]}
] };

var data = { "temp" : 100, "pies" : [{ "filling" : "apple", "score": 10 }, { "filling" : "cherry", "score": 7 }]};

jsonLogic.apply(rules, data);
