Sean McNamara updated HIVE-2927: -------------------------------- Component/s: (was: Serializers/Deserializers) Security Description: *Background:* get_json_object extracts json objects from a json string based on a specified path. *Problem:* The current implementation of get_json_object can't see keys with a '.' in them. Our data contains '.' in the keys, so we have to filter our json keys through a streaming script to replace '.' for '_'. *Example:* {{json = {"a":{"b": 1}, "c.d": 2}}} {{get_json_object(json, "a.b") returns: 1}} {{get_json_object(json, "c.d") returns: NULL}} In the present implementation of get_json_object, c.d is not addressable. *Proposal:* The desired behavior would be to allow the JSON path to be escape-able, like so: {{get_json_object(json, '$.c\\\\.d') would return: 2}} was: *Background:* get_json_object extracts json objects from a json string based on a specified path. *Problem:* The current implementation of get_json_object can't see keys with a '.' in them.
