Parse JSON using JQUERY and/or SQL-like statements

let json = {
    name:{
        "john":{ street:"22 prospect place" , city:"stamford" , state:"CT" },
        "jay":{ street:"111 northampton ave" , city:"amherst" , state:"MA" },
        "joy":{ street:"1080 main street" , city:"boston" , state:"NY" },
        "jer":{ street:"2022 plimpton ave" , city:"springfield" , state:"VT" },
    }
}
let firstNameJ = json.SELECT[" * FROM name FILTER (state) WITH name.match(/^j/i) ORDERED"] 
/*

    name:{
        "john":{ state:"CT" },
        "jay":{ state:"MA" },
        "joy":{ state:"NY" },
        "jer":{ state:"VT" },
    }
}
*/ 
let namesFromCT = json.SELECT[" * FROM name WITH state.match(/^CT$/) ORDERED"] 
/*
    name:{
        "john":{ street:"22 prospect place" , city:"stamford" , state:"CT" },
    }
*/
let MySortFunc = (a,b)=>{
    return a[0]>b[0]
};
let namesSortByCity = json.SELECT[" * FROM name ORDERED_BY MySortFunc"]
/*
    name:{
        "jay":{ street:"111 northampton ave" , city:"amherst" , state:"MA" },
        "joy":{ street:"1080 main street" , city:"boston" , state:"NY" },
        "jer":{ street:"2022 plimpton ave" , city:"springfield" , state:"VT" },
        "john":{ street:"22 prospect place" , city:"stamford" , state:"CT" },
    }

I like it, it would open a whole world. not to mention that since version 8 of mysql it is possible to use json.
you could even include subqueries, or use INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE. Although it would be almost like merging languages ​​but it would make things much easier.

I could work with the different types of variables and using things like ISNULL ISNUMERIC is a powerful and complex idea and creates the MANGO possibility.

there is a non-relational database that can be used in javascript without owning a server
https://pouchdb.com/

maybe we could get ideas from there.
