> Scalar function to get key from a MAP type field
> ------------------------------------------------

> Key: METAMODEL-195
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METAMODEL-195
> Project: Apache MetaModel
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Reporter: Kasper Sørensen

> Fix For: 4.4.2

>
> Now that we have support for scalar functions, and we also support a host of
> key/value or document oriented datastores, I think it would be really natural
> to support a function for getting a value inside a map.
> Example:
> {code}
> SELECT MAP_VALUE(address, 'street') FROM contacts
> {code}
> Ideally the function would allow for a full "path" of keys so that you could
> have maps-within-maps and so on.
> {code}
> SELECT MAP_VALUE(address, 'homeaddress.street') FROM contacts
> {code}
> Even more ideally we would also add a bit of query parser logic to allow
> expressing the path as part of the operand itself:
> {code}
> SELECT address.homeaddress.street FROM contacts
> {code}
