API Compatibility

• ✅ evaluate() - Evaluate Jsonnet code to JsonnetValue

• ✅ evaluate_with_filename() - Evaluate with filename for error reporting
• ✅ Error types matching original Jsonnet behavior

📊 Architecture

Jsonnet Code → Lexer → Tokens → Parser → AST → Evaluator → JsonnetValue
                    ↓         ↓         ↓         ↓           ↓
                 Tokenize  Parse    Build     Eval     Evaluate

🔧 Components

• lib.rs: Public API (evaluate, evaluate_to_json, evaluate_to_yaml)
• error.rs: Error types (JsonnetError, Result<T>)
• value.rs: Value representation (JsonnetValue, JsonnetFunction)
• ast.rs: Abstract Syntax Tree definitions
• lexer.rs: Lexical analysis and tokenization
• parser.rs: Recursive descent parsing
• evaluator.rs: AST evaluation and execution
• stdlib.rs: 80+ standard library functions

🧪 Testing

Run the comprehensive test suite:

cargo test

Tests cover:

• ✅ Basic evaluation (literals, variables, functions)
• ✅ Complex expressions and operator precedence
• ✅ Standard library functions
• ✅ Error handling and edge cases
• ✅ JSON/YAML output formatting

📚 Usage

use kotoba_jsonnet::{evaluate, evaluate_to_json};

// Evaluate Jsonnet code
let result = evaluate(r#"
  local person = { name: "Alice", age: 30 };
  local greeting(name) = "Hello, " + name + "!";
  {
    message: greeting(person.name),
    data: person,
    doubled_age: person.age * 2,
  }
"#)?;

println!("Result: {:?}", result);

// Convert to JSON
let json = evaluate_to_json(r#"{ name: "World", count: 42 }"#)?;
println!("JSON: {}", json);

🔗 Integration with Kotoba

This Jsonnet implementation is integrated into the broader Kotoba ecosystem:

• Used for configuration parsing (.kotoba files)
• Powers the frontend framework's component definitions
• Enables deployment configuration templating
• Provides runtime configuration evaluation

⚡ Performance

• Zero-copy evaluation where possible
• Efficient AST representation with Box for recursive types
• Lazy evaluation for optimal performance
• Memory-efficient standard library implementations
