verdande/internal/filterquery/filterquery.go

// Package filterquery parses the saved-filter language: the small expression
// somebody types to describe a slice of their tasks.
//
//	today & p1
//	#Firma & @regnskab
//	overdue | (today & assigned to: me)
//	7 days & !@venter
//
// It compiles to SQL rather than filtering in Go, so a filter over ten thousand
// tasks is one indexed query instead of ten thousand rows crossing the boundary.
//
// The grammar is deliberately Todoist's, because that is the one people already
// know and the import path from it should not require relearning anything:
//
//	expression := term (('&' | '|' | ',') term)*
//	term       := '!' term | '(' expression ')' | atom
//	atom       := #project | @label | pN | date-word | 'assigned to:' name | text
//
// '&' binds tighter than '|', and ',' is Todoist's spelling of '|'.
