Methods

Add(Operation, Object)

Using the "add" operation a new value is inserted into the root of the target document, into the target array at the specified valid index, or to a target object at the specified location.

When adding to arrays, the specified index MUST NOT be greater than the number of elements in the array. To append the value to the array, the index of "-" character is used (see [RFC6901]).

When adding to an object, if an object member does not already exist, a new member is added to the object at the specified location or if an object member does exist, that member's value is replaced.

The operation object MUST contain a "value" member whose content specifies the value to be added.

For example:

{ "op": "add", "path": "/a/b/c", "value": [ "foo", "bar" ] }

See RFC 6902 https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6902#page-4

Copy(Operation, Object)

Using the "copy" operation, a value is copied from a specified location to the target location.

The operation object MUST contain a "from" member, which references the location in the target document to copy the value from.

The "from" location MUST exist for the operation to be successful.

For example:

{ "op": "copy", "from": "/a/b/c", "path": "/a/b/e" }

See RFC 6902 https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6902#page-7

Move(Operation, Object)

Using the "move" operation the value at a specified location is removed and added to the target location.

The operation object MUST contain a "from" member, which references the location in the target document to move the value from.

The "from" location MUST exist for the operation to be successful.

For example:

{ "op": "move", "from": "/a/b/c", "path": "/a/b/d" }

A location cannot be moved into one of its children.

See RFC 6902 https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6902#page-6

Remove(Operation, Object)

Using the "remove" operation the value at the target location is removed.

The target location MUST exist for the operation to be successful.

For example:

{ "op": "remove", "path": "/a/b/c" }

If removing an element from an array, any elements above the specified index are shifted one position to the left.

See RFC 6902 https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6902#page-6

Replace(Operation, Object)

Using the "replace" operation the value at the target location is replaced with a new value. The operation object MUST contain a "value" member which specifies the replacement value.

The target location MUST exist for the operation to be successful.

For example:

{ "op": "replace", "path": "/a/b/c", "value": 42 }

See RFC 6902 https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc6902#page-6
