This is an implementation of the JsonLogic specification in Rust.
We implement 100% of the standard supported operations defined here.
We also implement the ?:, which is not described in that specification
but is a direct alias for if.
All operations are tested using our own test suite in Rust as well as the shared tests for all JsonLogic implementations defined here.
We are working on adding new operations with improved type safety, as well as the ability to define functions as JsonLogic. We will communicate with the broader JsonLogic community to see if we can make them part of the standard as we do so.
Being built in Rust, we are able to provide the package in a variety of languages. The table below describes current language support:
| Language | Available Via |
|---|---|
| Rust | Cargo |
| JavaScript (as WASM) | Node Package via NPM |
| Python | PyPI |
To use as a Rust library, add to your Cargo.toml:
[dependencies]
jsonlogic-rs = "~0.1"If you just want to use the commandline jsonlogic binary:
cargo install jsonlogic-rs --features cmdlineYou can install JsonLogic using npm or yarn. In NPM:
npm install --save @bestow/jsonlogic-rsNote that the package is distributed as a node package, so you'll need to use
browserify, webpack, or similar to install for the browser.
Supports Python 3.7+.
Wheels are distributed for many platforms, so you can often just run:
pip install jsonlogic-rsIf a wheel does not exist for your system, this will attempt to build the
package. In order for the package to build successfully, you MUST have Rust
installed on your local system, and cargo MUST be present in your PATH.
See Building below for more details.
use jsonlogic_rs;
use serde_json::{json, from_str, Value};
// You can pass JSON values deserialized with serde straight into apply().
fn main() {
let data: Value = from_str(r#"{"a": 7}"#)
assert_eq!(
jsonlogic_rs::apply(
json!({"===": [{"var": "a"}, 7]}),
data,
),
json!(true)
);
}const jsonlogic = require("jsonlogic-rs")
jsonlogic.apply(
{"===": [{"var": "a"}, 7]},
{"a": 7}
)import jsonlogic_rs
res = jsonlogic_rs.apply(
{"===": [{"var": "a"}, 7]},
{"a": 7}
)
assert res == True
# If You have serialized JsonLogic and data, the `apply_serialized` method can
# be used instead
res = jsonlogic_rs.apply_serialized(
'{"===": [{"var": "a"}, 7]}',
'{"a": 7}'
)Parse JSON data with a JsonLogic rule.
When no <data> or <data> is -, read from stdin.
The result is written to stdout as JSON, so multiple calls
can be chained together if desired.
USAGE:
jsonlogic <logic> [data]
FLAGS:
-h, --help Prints help information
-V, --version Prints version information
ARGS:
<logic> A JSON logic string
<data> A string of JSON data to parse. May be provided as stdin.
EXAMPLES:
jsonlogic '{"===": [{"var": "a"}, "foo"]}' '{"a": "foo"}'
jsonlogic '{"===": [1, 1]}' null
echo '{"a": "foo"}' | jsonlogic '{"===": [{"var": "a"}, "foo"]}'
Inspired by and conformant with the original JsonLogic (jsonlogic.com).
Run jsonlogic --help the most up-to-date usage.
An example of chaining multiple results:
$ echo '{"a": "a"}' \
| jsonlogic '{"if": [{"===": [{"var": "a"}, "a"]}, {"result": true}, {"result": false}]}' \
| jsonlogic '{"if": [{"!!": {"var": "result"}}, "result was true", "result was false"]}'

"fact contained cat"You must have Rust installed and cargo available in your PATH.
If you would like to build or test the Python distribution, Python 3.7 or
newer must be available in your PATH. The venv module must be part of the
Python distribution (looking at you, Ubuntu).
If you would like to run tests for the WASM package, node 10 or newer must be
available in your PATH.
To build the Rust library, just run cargo build.
You can create a release build with make build.
You can build a debug WASM release with
make debug-wasmYou can build a production WASM release with
make build-wasmThe built WASM package will be in js/. This package is directly importable
from node, but needs to be browserified in order to be used in the browser.
To perform a dev install of the Python package, run:
make develop-pyThis will automatically create a virtual environment in venv/, install
the necessary packages, and then install jsonlogic_rs into that environment.
Note: from our CI experiences, this may not work for Python 3.8 on Windows. If you are running this on a Windows machine and can confirm whether or not this works, let us know!
To build a production source distribution:
make build-py-sdistTo build a wheel (specific to your current system architecture and python version):
make build-py-wheelThe python distribution consists both of the C extension generated from the
Rust and a thin wrapper found in py/jsonlogic_rs/. make develop-py will
compile the C extension and place it in that directory, where it will be
importable by your local venv. When building wheels, the wrapper and the C
extension are all packaged together into the resultant wheel, which will
be found in dist/. When building an sdist, the Rust extension is not compiled.
The Rust and Python source are distributed together in a .tar.gz file, again
found in dist/.
