Re: Flexible yaml configuration mechanism in nailgun (roles disabling)
>As for YAQL and JSONPath, I didn't see how it is possible to write
conditions like "a && !b || c". Their data aggregation capabilities are
decent, but at first we need to be able to write conditions.
Full set of logic operations is supported: $.object.attribute1 and not
$object.attribute2 or $object.attribute3. Also there is true and false
constants available: $.object.attribute is true or even $.object.attribute
= true
