Functions

func DefaultPathResolver 

func DefaultPathResolver(value interface{}, path string) (interface{}, error)

DefaultPathResolver implements JSONPath resolution for accessing nested fact values. Example: "$.user.profile.age" accesses deeply nested data.

func RegisterOperator

RegisterOperator registers a custom operator in the global operator registry. This allows you to extend the engine with custom comparison logic.

Example: 

type StartsWithOperator struct{}
func (o *StartsWithOperator) Evaluate(factValue, compareValue interface{}) (bool, error) {
    str, ok1 := factValue.(string)
    prefix, ok2 := compareValue.(string)
    if !ok1 || !ok2 {
        return false, fmt.Errorf("both values must be strings")
    }
    return strings.HasPrefix(str, prefix), nil
}
gorulesengine.RegisterOperator("starts_with", &StartsWithOperator{})

Types

type Almanac 

type Almanac struct {

func NewAlmanac(facts []*Fact, opts ...AlmanacOption) *Almanac

NewAlmanac creates a new Almanac instance with the provided facts and options. The almanac is initialized with default settings including undefined fact handling.

almanac := gorulesengine.NewAlmanac([]*gorulesengine.Fact{})
almanac.AddFact("age", 25)
almanac.AddFact("country", "FR")

func (*Almanac) AddFact 

func (a *Almanac) AddFact(id FactID, valueOrMethod interface{}, opts ...FactOption) error

AddFact adds a fact to the almanac. The valueOrMethod can be either a static value or a function for dynamic facts. Optional FactOptions can be provided to configure caching and priority.
