product-farm-farmscript

Human-friendly DSL that compiles to JSON Logic for intuitive rule authoring.

Overview

FarmScript is a domain-specific language designed for business users to write rules without learning JSON Logic syntax. It compiles to JSON Logic for execution.

Write this:

if age < 25 then base_rate * 1.5
else if age < 35 then base_rate * 1.2
else base_rate

Instead of this:

{
  "if": [
    {"<": [{"var": "age"}, 25]}, {"*": [{"var": "base_rate"}, 1.5]},
    {"<": [{"var": "age"}, 35]}, {"*": [{"var": "base_rate"}, 1.2]},
    {"var": "base_rate"}
  ]
}

Features

Natural syntax - Reads like English, not code
Type inference - Automatic type detection from context
Error messages - Clear, actionable error descriptions
Zero runtime - Compiles to JSON Logic at build time
IDE support - Syntax highlighting and completion (coming soon)

Installation

[dependencies]
product-farm-farmscript = "0.2"

Usage

use product_farm_farmscript::{Parser, compile_to_json_logic};

// Parse and compile FarmScript
let script = r#"
    if customer_type == "premium" then
        base_price * 0.9
    else if quantity > 100 then
        base_price * 0.95
    else
        base_price
"#;

let json_logic = compile_to_json_logic(script)?;
// Now execute with product-farm-json-logic or product-farm-rule-engine
