Tagscript
If Statement Parser

IfStatementParser

The if tag returns a message based on the passed expression to the parameter. An expression is represented by two values compared with an operator. The payload is a required message that must be split by pipe (|). If the expression evaluates true, then the message before the pipe (|) is returned, else the message after is returned.

Usage

	import { Interpreter, IfStatementParser } from 'tagscript';
	const ts = new Interpreter(new IfStatementParser());
