json - JsonPath expression to filter using regex

Question

We are using a tool which uses jayway library for evaluating JSONpath expression. Javascript does NOT seem to work with it. How can I use regular expression in the JSONPath in such a case. For instance, in the below example I would like to filter all book titles whose title has the word "Sword" in it:

{
    "store": {
        "book": [
            {
                "category": "reference",
                "author": "Nigel Rees",
                "title": "Sayings of the Century",
                "price": 8.95
            },
            {
                "category": "fiction",
                "author": "Evelyn Waugh",
                "title": "Sword of Honour",
                "price": 12.99
            },
            {
                "category": "fiction",
                "author": "Herman Melville",
                "title": "Moby Dick",
                "isbn": "0-553-21311-3",
                "price": 8.99
            },
            {
                "category": "fiction",
                "author": "J. R. R. Tolkien",
                "title": "The Lord of the Rings",
                "isbn": "0-395-19395-8",
                "price": 22.99
            }
        ],
        "bicycle": {
            "color": "red",
            "price": 19.95
        }
    },
    "expensive": 10
}

The Jayway implementation uses the Ruby regex operator:

$.store.book[?(@.title =~ /^.*Sword.*$/)]

To ignore case:

$.store.book[?(@.title =~ /^.*sword.*$/i)]
