The `repeat(exp)` function allows you to repeatedly
|
||||
apply expression `exp` to `.` until an error is raised.
|
||||
|
||||
Note that `repeat(exp)` is internally defined as a
|
||||
recursive jq function. Recursive calls within `repeat` will
|
||||
not consume additional memory if `exp` produces at most one
|
||||
output for each input. See advanced topics below.
|
||||
|
||||
examples:
|
||||
- program: '[repeat(.*2, error)?]'
|
||||
input: '1'
|
||||
output: ['[2]']
