Probably the easiest thing to do for now (until a serious refactoring of JsonMatchers
) is to do some parsing and recursively use a JsonMatchers
in a Matcher[String]
:
"""{'db' : { 'id' : '1', 'state' : 'ok_1'} }""" must /("db" -> stateIsOk)
// a string matcher for the json string in 'db'
def stateIsOk: Matcher[String] = { json: String =>
// you need to provide a way to access the 'id' field
// then you can go on using a json matcher for the state
findId(json) must beSome { id: String =>
val obj = repository.lookup(id)
json must /("state" -> generate(obj))
}
}
// I am using my own parse function here
def findId(json: String): Option[String] =
parse(json).flatMap { a =>
findDeep("id", a).collect { case JSONArray(List(v)) => v.toString }
}
// dummy system
def generate(id: String) = "ok_"+id
case object repository {
def lookup(id: String) = id
}
