Path

The Path class is used to pass JSONPath expressions to assertion methods of the Check class. It enables automatic handling of non-existent paths by raising NoDataError when the specified path doesn't exist in the component data.

Constructor

Path(json_path)

Creates a new Path instance. The provided json_path always starts from the root of the component data, so the leading $ is optional.

• json_path (str): A JSONPath expression to query component data

Usage

The primary use of the Path class is to provide a wrapper around JSONPath expressions that will be automatically evaluated by assertion methods in the Check class.

from lunar_policy import Check, Path

with Check("my-check") as check:
    # Using Path in assertions
    check.assert_true(Path(".api.requires_auth"))
    check.assert_equals(Path(".api.version"), "v1")
    check.assert_contains(Path(".tags"), "security")
