Constructor Details

#initialize(options = {}) ⇒ Runtime

This method is part of a private API. You should avoid using this method if possible, as it may be removed or be changed in the future.

Constructs a new runtime object for evaluating JMESPath expressions.

runtime = JMESPath::Runtime.new
runtime.search(expression, data)
#=> ...

## Caching

When constructing a JMESPath::Runtime, the default parser caches expressions. This significantly speeds up calls to #search multiple times with the same expression but different data. To disable caching, pass ‘:cache_expressions => false` to the constructor or pass a custom `:parser`.

Examples:

Re-use a Runtime, caching enabled by default


runtime = JMESPath::Runtime.new
runtime.parser
#=> #<JMESPath::CachingParser ...>

Disable caching


runtime = JMESPath::Runtime.new(cache_expressions: false)
runtime.parser
#=> #<JMESPath::Parser ...>

Parameters:

  • options (Hash) (defaults to: {}) —

    a customizable set of options

Options Hash (options):

  • :cache_expressions (Boolean) — default: true —

    When ‘false`, a non caching parser will be used. When `true`, a shared instance of CachingParser is used. Defaults to `true`.

  • :parser (Parser, CachingParser)
