Hey all, I just released v2.0.0 of FilterQL, a query language and TypeScript library. This version adds support for Operations, which allow you to transform the data after filtering.

If you think this would be useful in a project you're working on, give it a try and let me know what you think!

I'm always asking myself, why there is no language-independent standard for this to translate into SQL / LIST querying or processing and why this is almost never done in a kind of lisp-ish style to have a fast, compact, simple and easy parser...

  (OR 
    (IN id (list 1 2 3)) 
    (LTE createDate "2025-08-27")
  )
which would translate into

  WHERE id IN (1,2,3) OR createDate <= '2025-08-27'
