*"Drill only runs queries written in SQL."*

I know and i want to use an SQL written query and apply it on a JSON file
all using Java syntax.

*" You can send that SQL from your Java application to Drill using JDBC or
Drill's REST API"*

How to do this using Java? what is the required code ? executeQuery on a
Statement using a Connection won't work since i don't use a database to go
in the direction of JDBC but instead use a simple JSON file
