abs-formula-core 0.1.1

Shared formula evaluator library for FastAPI apps. Synchronously evaluates string-template formulas with field-type-aware substitution and pluggable function registry.

Formula Core Package

A shared formula evaluator library for FastAPI applications that synchronously evaluates string-template formulas with field-type-aware substitution.

Features

• 56 built-in functions across Conditional, Math, Logical, String, Array, Date/Time, and Constant categories
• Field-type-aware token resolution (dropdown/radio/checkbox label mapping, association reference following, date/datetime coercion, file metadata)
• SEQUENCE() preprocessing via a Mongo counters collection for atomic counters
• Per-call field + record caching to avoid redundant DB lookups
• Standardized exceptions: MissingFieldError and FormulaEvaluationError

Installation

pip install abs-formula-core

or with Poetry:

poetry add abs-formula-core

Usage

from motor.motor_asyncio import AsyncIOMotorDatabase
from abs_formula_core import FormulaEvaluatorService, MissingFieldError

evaluator = FormulaEvaluatorService(db=cosmos_db)

formula = [
    "MULTIPLY(IF(",
    {"is_field": True, "field": "<dropdown_field_id>"},
    " == \"Yes\", MULTIPLY(",
    {"is_field": True, "field": "<number_field_id>"},
    ", 6), 24))",
]

try:
    value = await evaluator.evaluate(formula, record, entity_id="<entity_id>")
except MissingFieldError as e:
    # Field referenced by formula has no value on the record
    print(e.field_id)

Formula token shape

List[Union[
    str,                                                            # literal expression fragment
    {"is_field": True, "field": "<field_id>",                       # record field reference
     "reference_field": "<inner_field_id>"?},                       # optional association follow
]]

Strings are concatenated verbatim into the expression. Field-reference dicts are resolved against the record:

• dropdown / radio / checkbox UUIDs are replaced with their option labels via the field definition.
• association values are followed when reference_field is set: the referenced record is loaded and its inner field value substituted.
• date / datetime / time / time_range / date_range are coerced into datetime objects for date-function compatibility.
• file fields return their stored metadata shape.
• number / text / boolean values are formatted as expression literals.

Supported functions

56 functions across categories: Conditional (IF, SWITCH), Math (SUM, COUNT, AVG, MIN, MAX, ROUND, ABS, DIVIDE, MULTIPLY, MINUS, MOD, POWER, SQRT, LOG), Logical (AND, OR, NOT, XOR, EXACT), String (CONCATENATE, UPPER, LOWER, LEN, LEFT, RIGHT, MID, TRIM, REPLACE, REPT, SEARCH, SUBSTITUTE, TEXT, IN, STR, VALUE), Array (APPEND, EXTEND, REMOVE), Date/Time (TODAY, NOW, DATE, DATEVALUE, DATEADD, DATEDIFF, ADD_DAYS, SUBTRACT_DAYS, WORKDAY, WORKDAYS, DAYS, MONTH, YEAR, DAY, HOUR, MINUTE, SECOND, HOURS_DIFF, MINUTES_DIFF, ADD_MINUTES, SUBTRACT_MINUTES, FORMAT_DATE, IOSWEEKNUM, WEEKNUM), Constants (PI, TRUE, FALSE).

Plus SEQUENCE() preprocessing via the counters Mongo collection.

Errors

• MissingFieldError(field_id) — raised when a record field referenced by the formula has no value. Callers should surface a 422 with the field id.
• FormulaEvaluationError(message, expression?) — raised when a formula fails to evaluate for non-missing-field reasons (malformed expression, division by zero, simpleeval rejection).
