Class ObjectMatchesJSONObjectFilter

java.lang.Object
com.unboundid.ldap.sdk.unboundidds.jsonfilter.JSONObjectFilter
com.unboundid.ldap.sdk.unboundidds.jsonfilter.ObjectMatchesJSONObjectFilter
All Implemented Interfaces:
Serializable

This class provides an implementation of a JSON object filter that can be used to identify JSON objects that have a field whose value is a JSON object that matches a provided JSON object filter, or a field whose value is an array that contains at least one JSON object that matches the provided filter.
NOTE: This class, and other classes within the com.unboundid.ldap.sdk.unboundidds package structure, are only supported for use against Ping Identity, UnboundID, and Nokia/Alcatel-Lucent 8661 server products. These classes provide support for proprietary functionality or for external specifications that are not considered stable or mature enough to be guaranteed to work in an interoperable way with other types of LDAP servers.

The fields that are required to be included in an "object matches" filter are:
  • field -- A field path specifier for the JSON field for which to make the determination. This may be either a single string or an array of strings as described in the "Targeting Fields in JSON Objects" section of the class-level documentation for JSONObjectFilter. The value of the target field is expected to either be a JSON object or an array that contains one or more JSON objects.
  • filter -- A JSON object that represents a valid JSON object filter to match against any JSON object(s) in the value of the target field. Note that field name references in this filter should be relative to the object in the value of the target field, not to the other JSON object that contains that field.

Example

The following is an example of an "object matches" filter that will match any JSON object with a top-level field named "contact" whose value is a JSON object (or an array containing one or more JSON objects) with a "type" field with a value of "home" and a "email" field with any value:
   { "filterType" : "objectMatches",
     "field" : "contact",
     "filter" : {
       "filterType" : "and",
       "andFilters" : [
         { "filterType" : "equals",
           "field" : "type",
           "value" : "home" },
         { "filterType" : "containsField",
           "field" : "email" } ] } }
 
The above filter can be created with the code:
   ObjectMatchesJSONObjectFilter filter = new ObjectMatchesJSONObjectFilter(
        "contact",
        new ANDJSONObjectFilter(
             new EqualsJSONObjectFilter("type", "home"),
             new ContainsFieldJSONObjectFilter("email")));
