It's awesome for ad-hoc querying, at least. An example can better explain.
Consider this:
db.add('users').map('query', '.address .street where
.weight:expr(x<180), .exempt && .acl .state:val("1101") &&
!.expired').run()
as opposed to:
db.add('users').map(function(v) {
v = Riak.mapValuesJson(v)[0];
var result = [];
if ((v.weight < 180 || v.exempt) && v.acl && v.acl.state === '1101'
&& !v.expired) {
if (v.address) {
result.push(v.address.street);
}
}
return result;
}).run()
riak-ql is basically adding some query sugar (where, &&) on top of
JSONSelect... which you can try it out here:
