## Summary [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/mirek/node-json-criteria.png?branch=master)](https://travis-ci.org/mirek/node-json-criteria)



Criteria queries on JSON objects Mongo style.



## Installation



    npm install json-criteria --save



## Usage



### Node



    // npm install babel --save

    // Once at the entrypoint of your app.

    require('babel/register')



    var test = require('json-criteria').test

    console.log(test( {foo:1}, {foo:{$gt:0}} ))



### CoffeeScript



    # npm install babel --save

    # Once at the entrypoint of your app.

    require("babel/register")



    { test } = require 'json-criteria'

    console.log test {foo:1}, {foo:{$gt:0}}



### Babel



    import { test } from 'json-criteria'

    console.log(test( {foo:1}, {foo:{$gt:0}} ))



## Ops



Criteria queries follow MongoDB convention. You can use operators described at http://docs.mongodb.org/manual/reference/operator/query



* logical ops

  * `{ $and: [ ... ] }` - all of

  * `{ $or: [ ... ] }` - any of

  * `{ $nor: [ ... ] }` - none of

  * `{ $not: ... }` - not, ie. `{ $not: { $gt: 0, $lt: 1 } }`

* comparison ops

  * `{ field: ... }` - is equal (implicit)

  * `{ field: { $eq: ... } }` - is equal (explicit)

  * `{ field: { $ne: ... } }` - is not equal

  * `{ field: { $gt: ... } }` - is greater than

  * `{ field: { $gte: ... } }` - is greater than or equal

  * `{ field: { $lt: ... } }` - is lower than

  * `{ field: { $lte: ... } }` - is lower than or equal

  * `{ field: { $in: [ ... ] } }` - at least one element matches value (or value's elements if array)

  * `{ field: { $nin: [ ... ] } }` - none of elements match value (or value's elements if array)

* element ops

  * `{ field: { $exists: true/false } }` - field exists

  * `{ field: { $type: 'number|string|...' } }` - matches field type

* evaluation ops

  * `{ field: { $mod: [ div, rem ] } }` - divided by div has reminder rem

  * `{ field: { $regexp: '...', $options: 'i' } }` - matches regular expression with optional options

  * `{ field: { $where: function (v) { return true/false } } }` - performs test using provided function, for security purposes function body as string is not supported

* array ops

  * `{ field: { $all: [ ... ] } }` - all of the values are in the field's value

  * `{ field: { $elemMatch: ... } }` - at least one element matches

  * `{ field: { $size: ... } }` - matches length of field's array value



For more examples have a look at specs.



# Example Use Case



Let's say you've got JSON based RESTful API that you want to test using mocha:



    // spec/spec-my-api.js



    var assert = require('assert')

    var request = require('request')

    var jc = require('json-criteria')

    var endpoint = 'http://localhost:3000/api/v1'



    function get (path, criteria) {

      return function (done) {

        request

          .get(endpoint + path)

          .end(function (err, resp) {

            assert.ifError(err)

            assert.ok(resp.body.count > 0)

            assert.ok(jc.test(resp.body, criteria))

            done(err)

          })

      }

    }



    describe('api', function () {



      it('should have zero users', get('users/count', { count: 0 }))



      it('should have empty user list', get('users', { users: { $size: 0 } }))



      it('should have 3 to 5 products', get('products', { 'meta.count': { $gt: 2, $lte: 5 } }))



      it('should have 3 products with meta count check', get('products', {

        $and: [

          { 'meta.count': 3 },

          { products: { $size: 3 } }

        ]

      }))



      it('should have shipped flag', get('orders/1', {

        tags: { $in: [ 'shipped' ] }

      }))



    })
