  • Add tests for _from references in step.json_response body
  • Implement resolveBodyValue method on JSONResponseStep to handle _from map references
  • Modify resolveResponseBody to use resolveBodyValue for nested _from resolution
  • Add test for _from inside arrays (TestJSONResponseStep_BodyFromRefInArray)
  • Improve resolveBodyValue doc comment explaining _from semantics and limitation
  • Fix staticcheck SA4006 linter error (unused exists variable in missing-path test)
  • Verify with linting and tests

Pull request overview

This PR adds support for _from references in step.json_response body templates to inject raw values from pipeline context without stringification. This enables composing multi-field API responses like {data: [...rows], meta: {total: N}} where data contains an array of objects rather than a stringified representation.

Changes:

  • Introduced resolveBodyValue method that recursively processes body values with special handling for {"_from": "path.to.value"} maps
  • Modified resolveResponseBody to use per-key resolveBodyValue instead of ResolveMap to enable raw value injection throughout the body tree
  • Added comprehensive test coverage for the new feature including nested structures, missing paths, and composite responses

File Description
module/pipeline_step_json_response.go Implements recursive resolveBodyValue method that detects _from references (single-key maps) and injects raw values; replaces ResolveMap with manual iteration
module/pipeline_step_json_response_test.go Adds three test cases covering basic _from usage, nested structures with mixed literal/reference values, and missing reference paths

@copilot I'm still seeing linter errors

Fixed in commit 52d5ad7 — the SA4006: this value of exists is never used staticcheck error in TestJSONResponseStep_BodyFromRefMissingPath was removed by replacing the unused if _, exists := body["data"] check with _ = body["data"].
