Can I overwrite a portion of json object already called by reference ("$")?

[Genba_Kantoku_s]

I am making a config but it tweaks very small portion of lengthy .xc files from default config.

 

What I tried was, (within @xvm.xc)

 

  "login": ${"../default/login.xc":"login"},
  "login.pingServers": ${"hangar.xc":"hangar.pingServers"},
  "login.onlineServers": ${"hangar.xc":"hangar.onlineServers"},

 

but it did not work and only "login" part was executed.

 

What I wanted is, all the other parts of "login" object refers to the default folder, but only two objects are from my own config.

 

Again I tried 

 

  "login": {
    ${"../default/login.xc":"login"},
    "pingServers": ${"hangar.xc":"hangar.pingServers"},
    "onlineServers": ${"hangar.xc":"hangar.onlineServers"}
  },

 

but this resulted in error because "$" reference was illegal to be within anywhere but the value position.

 

Then I tried

 

  "login": ${"../default/login.xc":"login"},
  "login": {
    "pingServers": ${"hangar.xc":"hangar.pingServers"},
    "onlineServers": ${"hangar.xc":"hangar.onlineServers"}
  },

 

but this caused only the last statement is executed, former ones are totally overwritten.

 

How can I do? I want to do something similar to 'monkey patch' but within one .xc file.

Found the solution by my own.

The correct code is

 

  "login": {
    "allOf": [${"../default/login.xc":"login"}],
    "pingServers": ${"hangar.xc":"hangar.pingServers"},
    "onlineServers": ${"hangar.xc":"hangar.onlineServers"}
  },

 

This is because all reference ("$ref" or xvm's "${"file":"path"}) have a property to nullify any other sister objects.

By putting it into "allOf": [(array)] we can detour this.
