filter-expr

NOTE: This library is still under development.

A library for parsing the filter expression.

use filter_expr::{FilterExpr, SimpleContext};

let f = FilterExpr::parse("name = 'John' AND age > 18").unwrap();

assert_eq!(f.expr(), Some(Expr::and_([
    Expr::eq_(Expr::field_("name"), Expr::str_("John")),
    Expr::gt_(Expr::field_("age"), Expr::i64_(18)),
])));

You can evaluate it by yourself or use the filter-expr-evaler crate.
