# json-pluck

[![crates.io](https://img.shields.io/crates/v/json-pluck.svg)](https://crates.io/crates/json-pluck)

Pluck a single value out of a `serde_json::Value` by dotted path or a
tiny subset of JSONPath. Forgiving, built for LLM-emitted JSON where
the answer is buried under unpredictable wrappers.

```rust
use json_pluck::pluck;
use serde_json::json;

let v = json!({ "result": { "items": [{ "value": 1 }, { "value": 42 }] } });
assert_eq!(pluck(&v, "result.items[1].value"), Some(&json!(42)));
assert_eq!(pluck(&v, "result.items[-1].value"), Some(&json!(42)));
assert_eq!(pluck(&v, "**.value"), Some(&json!(1)));
```
