Presto Metadata Queries
There are two Presto metadata queries you can make:
Query for all <presto:presto-meta> statements in a specific mashup. You supply the mashup name as a parameter.
Query for all <presto:presto-meta> statements that match a condition (an XPath expression) in a specific mashup. You supply the mashup name and the XPath expression.

Presto Metadata Query Results
The default JSON response for Presto metatdata queries is in this form:

"serviceMetadata": {
"presto-metas":[

...
]
}
}
In XML format, the result is a document in this form:
<serviceMetadata>
<presto-metas>
<!-- list of all matching commands -->
<presto-meta name="cache">true</presto-meta>
</presto-metas>
</serviceMetadata>
