Property
Accepts 1 or more arguments.
Returns the values found under the given keys.
If any argument ends with a
?, that lookup is considered optional and dasel will continue if that property is not found.Because property is a commonly used function, it has an alias.
If no round brackets are detected in a selector part and no other function detects it as an alias, dasel assumes it is a property name.
$ echo '{"x": 1, "y": 2, "z": 3}' | dasel -r json 'property(x,y,bad?)'
