Viral expressions interpolation

To resolve a data from JavaScript files hosted on nexl server you have to provide an expression which exactly tells what you need to resolve from the file.
nexl expressions can be also a part of JavaScript files and they being evaluated on the fly.

Let's consider an example:
// colors array
colors = ['Red', 'Green', 'Blue'];

// allColors variable is referencing to color array in expression
// this expression sorts colors array (#S) and joins its items with comma (&,)
allColors = '${colors#S&,}';

// [person.favColors] field is referencing to allColors variable
person = {
    name: 'John',
    favColors: '${allColors}'
};
In this example person object has a favColors field which is referencing to the allColors variable.

allColors JavaScript variable is referencing to the colors array via nexl expression. It also sorts colors array and joins all array items with comma.

When you reference a person object in HTTP request, nexl will calculate all nexl expression references virally.
