title: Skip double quotes using JSON path
body: <p>I have following JSON</p>
  
  <pre><code>{
    "firstName": "John",
    "lastName" : "doe",
    "age"      : 26,
    "address"  : {
      "streetAddress": "naist street",
      "city"         : "Nara",
      "postalCode"   : "630-0192"
    },
    "phoneNumbers": [
      {
        "type"  : "iPhone",
        "number": "0123-4567-8888"
      },
      {
        "type"  : "home",
        "number": "0123-4567-8910"
      }
    ]
  }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>and <code>$.phoneNumbers[:1].type</code> json path to extract phone number type <code>iPhone</code> value but the output is </p>
  
  <pre><code>[
    "iPhone"
  ]
  </code></pre>
