on GitHub

Expr is a Go-centric expression language designed to deliver dynamic configurations with unparalleled accuracy,
safety, and speed.

program, err := expr.Compile(`let foo = bar(); baz(foo, foo)`)

In this release:

This release added the biggest change to the Expr language: if-else expressions and sequential expressions. #736 e750878

if foo > 42 {
    assert(foo);
    calc(foo, foo / 2)
} else {
    calc(0, 0)
}

A sequence of expression may be separated by ; char. The last semicolon must be omitted. Expr returns the value of the
last expression in the sequence.

If-else is also expressions. Each if must have an else part. Result of if-else can be used as an expression:

let foo = if bar > 0 {
    process(bar)
} else {
    fallback()
};
foo + 42
