Search not working?

[Tom Krones]

Hello. I'm trying out the app and am very happy with it so far but I feel like the search isn't working right. I'm not sure if this is a bug or just me using it wrong.

I put this into the search bar above my JSON object:

$.*.ingredients[@.ingredient = 'egg']

Here's a link to the file am testing on:

Note: that's a temporary link. The file needs to be downloaded in 2 days.

Hello

I have looked at this issue, and it is a bug. Currently the query will not execute correctly unless you remove the '' signs around the string value that is a bug.

The query will return results if it is written as : $.*.ingredients[?(@.ingredient == egg)]

the correct query is

$.*.ingredients[?(@.ingredient == 'egg')]

there is some bug involving the ''.

This is a bug and I am going to fix it.

Thank you.
