JSONPath.update_or_create()
is likeJSONPath.update()
, but it can also create new values, for the purpose of building out a JSON document. Here is an example based on tests in tests/test_create.py:Creating new items is only implemented for JSONPath subclasses that make sense for this use case. For example, using
Slice
to create many values is not supported in this change, nor is usingFilter
to create items to satisfy filter criteria (although you can still useFilter
to select existing items).This is a second take at PR #71 . It preserves the signatures and behaviour of the current
find()
andupdate()
methods in order to work with subclasses defined outside this codebase.fyi @h2non @proteusvacuum
