Add ability to define custom predicate functions #497
Description
Activity
Yes, it is possible to implement next expression, even if
Nodesis not an array.Nodes | filter(.Name=="cat")To do it you can create a patcher which will be wrapping Nodes inside filter into a helper function. The helper function will transform Nodes to an array.
After the patcher resulting code should look like this:
nodesToArray(Nodes) | filter(.Name=="cat")- locked and limited conversation to collaborators

Hi!
I'm currently working on a project that would like to use this as the primary language to build filters for it's frontend.
At the moment, we're hoping to allow users to write queries like
Nodes | filter(.Name=="cat"). We're currently facing an issue though, asNodesisn't a slice. This leads to issues likearray.Len()causing panics in the VM every time we hit anOpBegin.As we don't control the layout/go type of the data we're passing into
expr, would you be against defining some way to implement functions that take custom predicates?Looking forwards, this could also be a good place to look into support for the changes proposed in golang/go#61898.
