face-core 0.1.0

//! jq-like path resolution against `serde_json::Value`.
//!
//! Supports dotted segments and bracketed integer indices, e.g.
//! `data.path.text`, `data.lines[0].text`, or `.[0]` for top-level
//! array access. The leading `.` is optional and treated as
//! identity-then-lookup. The bare path `.` resolves to the input
//! value as-is.
//!
//! Quoted segments (e.g. `."key with dot"`) are intentionally **not**
//! supported in this slice — keys containing dots are out of scope
//! until a later slice raises the need.
//!
//! # Error shape
//!
//! [`resolve`] returns `Result<&Value, FaceError>`. The chosen variant
//! is [`FaceError::UnknownItemsPath`] — `path::resolve` does not know
//! whether the path came from `--items` or `--score`, so the
//! `UnknownItemsPath` form is used as the generic shape. Callers that
//! distinguish the two flags re-wrap into [`FaceError::UnknownScorePath`]
//! when appropriate (the score-resolution call site has the context).
//! This is the simpler call shape — callers that don't care about the
//! distinction propagate the error as-is.

/// Resolve a jq-like dotted/bracketed path against a [`Value`].
///
/// # Path grammar
///
/// - `.` — identity (returns the input unchanged).
/// - `.foo.bar` — nested object lookup.
/// - `.foo[0]` — array index after a key.
/// - `.[0]` — array index at the root.
/// - `foo.bar` — leading `.` is optional.
/// - `.foo[0].bar[1]` — index chains accepted between segments.
///
/// # Errors
///
/// Returns [`FaceError::UnknownItemsPath`] when the path cannot be
/// resolved. The variant carries the original path string so the user
/// can identify which lookup failed; the variant choice is generic —
/// the score path code site re-wraps to
/// [`FaceError::UnknownScorePath`] when relevant.
///
/// # Examples
///
/// ```
/// use face_core::path;
/// use serde_json::json;
///
/// let v = json!({"data": {"path": {"text": "src/lib.rs"}}});
/// let leaf = path::resolve(&v, "data.path.text").unwrap();
/// assert_eq!(leaf, &json!("src/lib.rs"));
///
/// let identity = path::resolve(&v, ".").unwrap();
/// assert_eq!(identity, &v);
