Function proposal - split()

[glenveegee]

Given a string - split string on a pattern:

For example in Javascript one might implement it as follows:

registerFunction(
  'split',
  ([splitChar, toSplit]) => {
    return toSplit.split(splitChar);
  },
  [{ types: [TYPE_STRING] }, { types: [TYPE_STRING] }],
);

Examples:

jmespath.search("foo-bar-baz", "split('-', @)")
// OUTPUTS: [ 'foo', 'bar', 'baz' ]

jmespath.search("foo-bar-baz", "split('*', @)")
// OUTPUTS: [ 'foo-bar-baz' ]
