$ luarocks install jsonpath
This library implements Stefan Goessner's JsonPath syntax (http://goessner.net/articles/JsonPath/) in Lua.
Lua JsonPath is compatible with David Chester's Javascript implementation (https://github.com/dchester/jsonpath).
The Lua JsonPath library was written from scratch by Frank Edelhaeuser. It's a pure Lua implementation based on a PEG grammer handled by Roberto Ierusalimschy's fabulous LPeg pattern-matching library (http://www.inf.puc-rio.br/~roberto/lpeg/lpeg.html).
