Advanced search options

[josdejong]

The current search in the JSON Editor searches for text matches within the fields and values of items. The search functionality can be expanded with options like:

• match case
• match words
• regex support
• filter on matching path or path parts
• match multiple results per field instead of a match of the fields as a whole

This issue is very old already, I will close it now. Feel free to reopen it when there is need for it again.

Is advance search available with current version?

I want to search for a path in the JSON. examle - Person.Name.Firstname

How can I do that?

[josdejong]

That's not supported, there haven't been any steps in this regard. I will reopen this issue.

With the Filter (truncate with JMESpath) option, can we have a way to search the required path and make changes to json, and when we do editor.get(), we get the whole json, instead of the truncated one(with the changes of-course).

this gives the searched path. But it changes the state, so only the truncated json is available on editor.get()

Yes indeed, this feature is to transform your JSON, it would be nice if you could use such a powerful query for just search too.
