Some background on one of the other two golang implementations mentioned in the comments. Years ago I hired an Upwork contractor to port v1.5.3 to golang as best he could. He did a great job and it served us well, however it was far, far from perfect and it couldn't pass most of the JS test suite. The worst was that it had several recursion bugs that could segfault with bad expressions. That was the now-deprecated implementation at https://github.com/blues/jsonata-go Early in 2025 I used Claude Code and Codex to do a proper, compliant port that passes the full set of tests and is safe. It was most certainly not a trivial task for AI, as many nuances of JSONata syntax derive from its JS roots. Regardless, it was a great experience and here's the 2.0.6 AI port, along with a golang exerciser that lets you flip back and forth between the implementations. We did a seamless migration and it's been running beautifully in prod in Blues' Notehub for quite a while - as a core transformation capability used by customers in our JSON message pipeline. | ||
