Function permissive_json_pointer::select_values

pub fn select_values<'a>(
    value: &Map<String, Value>, 
    selectors: impl IntoIterator<Item = &'a str>
) -> Map<String, Value>

Permissively selects values in a json with a list of selectors. Returns a new json containing all the selected fields.

        "size": "80cm",
    },
});
let value: &Map<String, Value> = value.as_object().unwrap();

let res: Value = select_values(value, vec!["name", "race.name"]).into();
