mini_jsonpath(node, path)

Evaluates a dot separated path against JSON data. Path can contains star wilcards. Always returns a generator.

Relates to https://goessner.net/articles/JsonPath/ but in a really basic and simpler form.

>>> list(mini_jsonpath({"x": 95, "y": 77, "z": 68}, 'y'))
[77]
>>> list(mini_jsonpath({"x": {"y": {"z": "nested"}}}, 'x.y.z'))
['nested']
>>> list(mini_jsonpath('{"data": [{"x": "foo", "y": 13}, {"x": "bar", "y": 42}, {"x": "baz", "y": 128}]}', 'data.*.y'))
[13, 42, 128]
