Interpreter

Some example interpreters that maybe useful

Evaluate

Customizable in-code evaluating interpreter. Goto the file.

An example could be found here.

Concept

To evaluate a Search, you will need EvaluateRules and EvaluatePairs.

• EvaluateRules: You can overwrite any default rules for comparison. Usually, you may want to overwrite is_greater_than and is_less_than if the key has a numeric value. Rules should be reused as often as possible in order to reduce redundant codes.

• EvaluatePairs: Actual key-value pairs for the evaluation. You need to parse your values into strings so that rules can be applied.

Mysql

Generating Mysql condition clause. Goto the file.

An example could be found here.

Concept

To generate Mysql condition clause from a Search, you will need MysqlRenames and MysqlTypes.

• MysqlRenames: You can insert any rename rules to it. E.g. key sex in search string may need to be renamed to table_a.gender regarding the actual query string. All keys without rename rules will stay as is.

• MysqlTypes: You can insert any types to it. You need this because the condition clause is a prepare clause (i.e. all values are replaced as placeholder(?)) and you will be given a Vec with search targets in the order that "?"s appear in the clause. For details, please read the example. Additionally, MysqlType::StringLike(String) is the default type if you didn't insert types for one or some keys.
