JsonModel (json-path 0.9.0 API)

java.lang.Object
- com.jayway.jsonpath.JsonModel

```
public class JsonModel
extends Object
```
A JsonModel holds a parsed JSON document and provides easy read and write operations. In contrast to the static read operations provided by JsonPath a JsonModel will only parse the document once.

- Method Detail
  - isList
```
public boolean isList()
```
    Check if this JsonModel is holding a JSON array as to object
    
    Returns:
    true if root is an array
  - isMap
```
public boolean isMap()
```
    Check if this JsonModel is holding a JSON object as to object
    
    Returns:
    true if root is an object
  - print
```
public void print()
```
    Prints this JsonModel to standard out
  - hasPath
```
public boolean hasPath(String jsonPath)
```
    Check if this JsonModel has the given definite path
    
    Parameters:
    jsonPath - path to check
    
    Returns:
    true if model contains path
    See Also:
    JsonPath.isPathDefinite()
  - hasPath
```
public boolean hasPath(JsonPath jsonPath)
```
    Check if this JsonModel has the given definite path
    
    Parameters:
    jsonPath - path to check
    
    Returns:
    true if model contains path
    See Also:
    JsonPath.isPathDefinite()
  - getJsonObject
```
public Object getJsonObject()
```
    Returns the root object of this JsonModel
    
    Returns:
    returns the root object
  - get
```
public <T> T get(String jsonPath,
        Filter... filters)
```
    Reads the given path from this JsonModel. Filters is a way to problematically filter the contents of a list. Instead of writing the filter criteria directly inside the JsonPath expression the filter is indicated and provided as an argument.
    All three statements below are equivalent
    JsonModel model = JsonModel.model(myJson);
    //A List books = model.read("$store.book[?(@author == 'Nigel Rees')]");
    //B List books = model.read("$store.book[?]", filter(where("author").is("Nigel Rees"));
    //C JsonPath path = JsonPath.compile("$store.book[?]", filter(where("author").is("Nigel Rees"));
    List books = model.read(path);
    
    The filters are applied in the order they are provided. If a path contains multiple [?] filter markers the filters must be passed in the correct order.
    
    Type Parameters:
    T - expected return type
    Parameters:
    jsonPath - the path to read
    filters - filters to use in the path
    
    Returns:
    the json path result
    See Also:
    Filter, Criteria
