Reply with random object

[HarHarLinks]

For example, let's say I want to the bot to select one out of 2 images when it reads a certain word.

To accomplish this, I tried modelling after samples/random-reaction.yaml, specifically the random filter and combined it with my replymedia template. However, now my selection isn't a basic object anymore, but a dict whose value I need to access.

reactbot/README.md

Lines 29 to 30 in a1e5d2c

	The object can contain variables using a custom syntax: All instances of
	`$${variablename}` will be replaced with the value matching `variablename`.

This custom syntax does not appear to allow this in any way I tried, such as $${selection.url} or $${selection[url]} or $${selection['url']}.

Next I tried json, at which point I'm limited by having to use " double quotes for each key and value as well as the whole content being a string so the parser does not try to interpret it as yaml object. After failing with the usual escape syntax, I accomplished this by this syntax

content: >
  {"key": "{{selection['value']}}"}

and other ways to access the dict, but again this does not appear to work, the jinja templated parts are simply empty.

Then I tried providing the whole object in the rule's variables and discard the reply field for now, but still failed with errors that I don't understand at this point, like AttributeError: 'CommentedSeq' object has no attribute 'items'.

1. I would like the custom syntax to support subscription if possible.
2. Where did I go wrong with jinja? Can you provide an example if this is possible?
3. Where did I go wrong in my brute force approach? Is this currently possible at all?
