Similar to how MongoDB update queries work. Natural, since documents there are essentially JSON.

Does anyone know if it’s possible to use that update language on local files, without having a full mongodb running?

We use MongoDB for data storage, so using JSON patch in the PATCH endpoints feels very natural. Just fetch the Mongo document and apply patch. Kind of slow, though.
