## matchJSON, for Chai

[![Travis CI](https://travis-ci.org/DingoEatingFuzz/chai-match-json.svg?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/DingoEatingFuzz/chai-match-json)

A way to assert the structure of given JSON.

### Examples

It looks like this:

```js

var FIXTURE = {

  name       : 'foo',

  value      : 'bar',

  additional : [ 'prop', 'er', 'ties' ]

};

expect(FIXTURE).to.matchJSON({

  '$.name'  : 'foo',

  '$.value' : 'bar'

});

```

It uses [JSONPath](https://github.com/s3u/JSONPath) for validating paths. The JSONPath project is well documented

with how to specify path selectors (such as `$.children[3].prices[price<30]`).

### Build

```sh

$ browserify lib/match-json.js -o chai-match-json.js

```

### Test

```sh

$ npm install -g karma-cli

$ npm install

$ karma start

```
