This expression language supports the following operators (listed in decreasing order of precedence).
|Operators|Description|
|---------|-----------|
|!, -|Unary NOT and Minus|
|^|Binary power op|
|*, /, %|Binary multiplicative|
|+, -|Binary additive|
|<, <=, >, >=, ==, !=|Binary Comparison|
|&&,\|\||Binary Logical AND, OR|
Long, double and string data types are supported. If a number contains a dot, it is interpreted as a double, otherwise it is interpreted as a long. That means, always add a '.' to your number if you want it interpreted as a double value. String literal should be quoted by single quotation marks.
Expressions can contain variables. Variable names may contain letters, digits, '\_' and '$'. Variable names must not begin with a digit. To escape other special characters, user can quote it with double quotation marks.
For logical operators, a number is true if and only if it is positive (0 or minus value means false). For string type, it's evaluation result of 'Boolean.valueOf(string)'.
Also, the following built-in functions are supported.
## General functions
|name|description|
|----|-----------|
|cast|cast(expr,'LONG' or 'DOUBLE' or 'STRING') returns expr with specified type. exception can be thrown |
|if|if(predicate,then,else) returns 'then' if 'predicate' evaluates to a positive number, otherwise it returns 'else' |
|nvl|nvl(expr,expr-for-null) returns 'expr-for-null' if 'expr' is null (or empty string for string type) |
|like|like(expr, pattern[, escape]) is equivalent to SQL `expr LIKE pattern`|
|case_searched|case_searched(expr1, result1, \[\[expr2, result2, ...\], else-result\])|
|case_simple|case_simple(expr, value1, result1, \[\[value2, result2, ...\], else-result\])|
## String functions
|name|description|
|----|-----------|
|concat|concatenate a list of strings|
|like|like(expr, pattern[, escape]) is equivalent to SQL `expr LIKE pattern`|
|lookup|lookup(expr, lookup-name) looks up expr in a registered [query-time lookup](lookups.html)|
|regexp_extract|regexp_extract(expr, pattern[, index]) applies a regular expression pattern and extracts a capture group index, or null if there is no match. If index is unspecified or zero, returns the substring that matched the pattern.|
|replace|replace(expr, pattern, replacement) replaces pattern with replacement|
|substring|substring(expr, index, length) behaves like java.lang.String's substring|
|strlen|returns length of a string in UTF-16 code units|
|trim|remove leading and trailing whitespace from a string|
|lower|convert a string to lowercase|
|upper|convert a string to uppercase|
## Time functions
|name|description|
|----|-----------|
|timestamp|timestamp(expr[,format-string]) parses string expr into date then returns milli-seconds from java epoch. without 'format-string' it's regarded as ISO datetime format |
|unix_timestamp|same with 'timestamp' function but returns seconds instead |
|timestamp_ceil|timestamp_ceil(expr, period, \[origin, \[timezone\]\]) rounds up a timestamp, returning it as a new timestamp. Period can be any ISO8601 period, like P3M (quarters) or PT12H (half-days). The time zone, if provided, should be a time zone name like "America/Los_Angeles" or offset like "-08:00".|
|timestamp_floor|timestamp_floor(expr, period, \[origin, [timezone\]\]) rounds down a timestamp, returning it as a new timestamp. Period can be any ISO8601 period, like P3M (quarters) or PT12H (half-days). The time zone, if provided, should be a time zone name like "America/Los_Angeles" or offset like "-08:00".|
|timestamp_shift|timestamp_shift(expr, period, step, \[timezone\]) shifts a timestamp by a period (step times), returning it as a new timestamp. Period can be any ISO8601 period. Step may be negative. The time zone, if provided, should be a time zone name like "America/Los_Angeles" or offset like "-08:00".|
|timestamp_extract|timestamp_extract(expr, unit, \[timezone\]) extracts a time part from expr, returning it as a number. Unit can be EPOCH, SECOND, MINUTE, HOUR, DAY (day of month), DOW (day of week), DOY (day of year), WEEK (week of [week year](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_week_date)), MONTH (1 through 12), QUARTER (1 through 4), or YEAR. The time zone, if provided, should be a time zone name like "America/Los_Angeles" or offset like "-08:00"|
|timestamp_parse|timestamp_parse(string expr, \[pattern, [timezone\]\]) parses a string into a timestamp using a given [Joda DateTimeFormat pattern](http://www.joda.org/joda-time/apidocs/org/joda/time/format/DateTimeFormat.html), or ISO8601 if the pattern is not provided. The time zone, if provided, should be a time zone name like "America/Los_Angeles" or offset like "-08:00", and will be used as the time zone for strings that do not include a time zone offset. Pattern and time zone must be literals. Strings that cannot be parsed as timestamps will be returned as nulls.|
|timestamp_format|timestamp_format(expr, \[pattern, \[timezone\]\]) formats a timestamp as a string with a given [Joda DateTimeFormat pattern](http://www.joda.org/joda-time/apidocs/org/joda/time/format/DateTimeFormat.html), or ISO8601 if the pattern is not provided. The time zone, if provided, should be a time zone name like "America/Los_Angeles" or offset like "-08:00". Pattern and time zone must be literals.|
