What is the dasel equivalent of this python-yq command?

[sdemura]

The following jq command will print out the values of all keys with the name 'image' and type of string. The file is a multi-doc yaml of kubernetes definitions -- it's an assortment of jobs, deployment, service, crd and crd definitions.

yq -r '.. | ."image"? | select(. != null and type=="string")' test.yaml

Based on the documentation, I would suspect to be able to do something like this, but it doesn't work:

 ❯ dasel select -f test.yaml -m '.(key=image)'
Error: could not query multiple node: could not find multiple value: no value found for selector: .(-=image): 

[sdemura]

I think, that the real issue here is that if dasel does not find a specific key it errors out. I think that's okay in a single document sense, but for multiple documents, there's no guarantee they follow the same schema.

In other words, does, or can dasel support the ? (optional, if exists) directive like JQ? does?

It doesn't support optional selectors right now but it's definitely a worthwhile feature I want to add

This feature is now available in v1.26.0.
