property

This function is used by Ignition's Expression language.

Description

Returns an object representing the value of the property at the path specified. It takes a single string as an argument and attempts to lookup the property value at the specified path. What makes this function useful is that the path itself can be the result of an expression, meaning it can be dynamic. Normally, you'd use the expression language's built-in bound-value syntax to use a property value in an expression.
