Applies a patch or a merge patch on the input JSON column.
When a (merge) patch cannot be applied, missing values will be generated, node execution will not fail.
See also the node: JSON Diff.
Given {"a":"b","c":{"d":"e","f": "g"} } let us assume the target is {"a":"z","c":{"d":"e"} } (changing a's value to z and
removing f). To achieve this, either the following patch should be applied:
[{"op":"replace","path":"/a","value":"z"},{"op":"remove","path":"/c/f"}] or
this merge and patch: {"a":"z","c":{"f": null} }
The following operators (op) are supported for patch:
add(path,value)remove(path)replace(path,value)move(from,path)copy(from,path)test(path,value)
The merge and patch format reconstructs the parts that need to be changed (changes included), all else can be omitted.
It uses the fge/json-patch implementation.
To refer to flow variables, use the $${TflowVarName}$$ syntax (where T is S for String type, D for floating point numbers and I for integer numbers).
To refer to columns (boolean, numeric, String, JSON), use the $columnName$ syntax.
References to (0-based) row index ($$ROWINDEX$$), row count ($$ROWCOUNT$$) and row keys ($$ROWID$$) can also be used in values.
