Description

When using jsonpath for predicates the syntax can be a bit complex to understand and learn for even the simplest things.

So having to do

                        .when().jsonpath("$.store.book[?(@.price < ${header.cheap})]")

We can try to let Camel be smart and help you with a easy syntax when you have one operator and in predicate mode, so this can be just

                        .when().jsonpath("store.book.price < ${header.cheap}")

Then camel-jsonpath will parse this and build the complexer jsonpath syntax on your behalf.

Not having to remember the complexities of [?@.] and other hard to remember symbols to just say a simple predicate if X < Y etc.
