Expr

Expr package provides an engine that can compile and evaluate expressions. An expression is a one-liner that returns a value (mostly, but not limited to, booleans). It is designed for simplicity, speed and safety.

The purpose of the package is to allow users to use expressions inside configuration for more complex logic. It is a perfect candidate for the foundation of a business rule engine. The idea is to let configure things in a dynamic way without recompile of a program:

# Get the special price if
user.Group in ["good_customers", "collaborator"]

# Promote article to the homepage when
len(article.Comments) > 100 and article.Category not in ["misc"]

# Send an alert when
product.Stock < 15

Features

• Seamless integration with Go (no need to redefine types)
• Static typing (example).

  out, err := expr.Compile(`name + age`)
  // err: invalid operation + (mismatched types string and int)
  // | name + age
  // | .....^
  

• User-friendly error messages.
• Reasonable set of basic operators.
• Builtins all, none, any, one, filter, map.

  all(Tweets, {.Size <= 280})
  

• Fast (benchmarks): uses bytecode virtual machine and optimizing compiler.

Install

go get github.com/antonmedv/expr

Documentation

• See Getting Started page for developer documentation.
• See Language Definition page to learn the syntax.

Expr Code Editor

Also, I have an embeddable code editor written in JavaScript which allows editing expressions with syntax highlighting and autocomplete based on your types declaration.

Contributing

Expr consist of a few packages for parsing source code to AST, type checking AST, compiling to bytecode and VM for running bytecode program.

Also expr provides powerful tool exe for debugging. It has interactive terminal debugger for our bytecode virtual machine.
