If you are using a released version of Kubernetes, you should refer to the docs that go with that version.
The latest 1.0.x release of this document can be found [here](http://releases.k8s.io/release-1.0/docs/user-guide/jsonpath.md).Documentation for other releases can be found at releases.k8s.io.
JSONPath template is composed of JSONPath expressions enclosed by {}. And we add three functions in addition to the original JSONPath syntax:
- The
$
operator is optional since the expression always start from the root object by default. - We can use
""
to quote text inside JSONPath expression. - We can use
range
operator to iterate list.
The result object is printed as its String() function.
Given the input:
{
"kind": "List",
"items":[
{
"kind":"None",
"metadata":{"name":"127.0.0.1"},
"status":{
"capacity":{"cpu":"4"},
"addresses":[{"type": "LegacyHostIP", "address":"127.0.0.1"}]
}
},
{
"kind":"None",
"metadata":{"name":"127.0.0.2"},
"status":{
"capacity":{"cpu":"8"},
"addresses":[
{"type": "LegacyHostIP", "address":"127.0.0.2"},
{"type": "another", "address":"127.0.0.3"}
]
}
}
],
"users":[
{
"name": "myself",
"user": {}
},
{
"name": "e2e",
"user": {"username": "admin", "password": "secret"}
}
]
}
