# 基本表达式

## 识别码

源引用（`.`）源解引用运算符可用于通过引用源流或表来指定列。'->引用选择嵌套JSON对象中的键。

```
SELECT demo.age FROM demo
{"age" : 37}
```



```
SELECT demo.name->first FROM demo
{"first" : "Tom"}
```



```
SELECT name->first AS fname FROM demo
{"fname": "Tom"}
```

## 索引表达式

索引表达式使您可以选择列表中的特定元素。 它看起来应该类似于普通编程语言中的数组访问。 索引基于0。

```
SELECT children FROM demo
{
    "children": ["Sara","Alex","Jack"]
}
```



```
SELECT children[0] FROM demo
{
    "children": "Sara"
}

SELECT d.friends[0]->last FROM demo AS d
{
    "last" : "Murphy"
}
```

# 切片

切片允许您选择数组的连续子集。

``field[from:to]`` 如果未指定from，则表示从数组的第一个元素开始; 如果未指定to，则表示以数组的最后一个元素结尾。

```
SELECT children[0:1] FROM demo
{
    "children": ["Sara","Alex"]
}
```



```
SELECT children[:] FROM demo == SELECT children FROM demo
{
    "children": ["Sara","Alex","Jack"]
}
```



```
SELECT children[:1] FROM demo
{
    "children": ["Sara","Alex"]
}
```



```
SELECT followers->Group1[:1]->first FROM demo

{
    "first": ["John","Alice"]
}
```



# *映射*

<!--Do we need to support this?-->

## 列表和切片映射

通配符表达式创建列表映射，它是JSON数组上的映射。

```
SELECT demo.friends[*]->first FROM demo
{
    "first": ["Dale", "Roger", "Jane"]
}
```



```
SELECT friends[:1]->first FROM demo
{
    "first": ["Dale", "Roger"]
}
```

## 对象映射



```
SELECT ops->*->numArgs FROM demo

{ "numArgs" : [2, 3] }
```
