#goScript
Golang like scripting language
Uses go/ast and reflect to allow arbitrary expression evaluation in a given context.
#Highlights
-
Simple and hackable code.
-
Fully reflect function call including variable number of args.
-
Automatic casting
- Numeric casting always to the bigger more generic representation.
- True && 0 = false
- Left operand governs the type 1 + "1" = 2, "1" + 1 = "11"
-
Map, slice, array and string indexer access
-
Full control over evaluation context.
- Generic map[string]interface{} / *map[string]interface{} contexts
- Any struct with its fields as variables
- Custom Context for implentation/user defined context.
-
Mostly tested ;)
#Roadmap
-
- Rock solid expression evaluation.
-
- Enrich evaluation context
-
- Full script program implementation
-
- Performance optimizations
#Examples
import (
"fmt"

"github.com/japm/goScript"
)
//Example type
type ab struct {
A int
}
//Function as identifier
func T() int {
return 0
}

func (a ab) Test2(x int, z ...int) []int {

}

//Custom dummy context, the ident value is its own name
func (a ab) GetIdent(name string) (val interface{}, err error) {

}
