Expr is an engine that can evaluate expressions.
The purpose of the package is to allow users to use expressions inside configuration for more complex logic. It is a perfect candidate for the foundation of a business rule engine. The idea is to let configure things in a dynamic way without recompile of a program:
# Get the special price if
user.Group in ["good_customers", "collaborator"]
# Promote article to the homepage when
len(article.Comments) > 100 and article.Category not in ["misc"]
# Send an alert when
product.Stock < 15Inspired by
