Why eru-functions

Workflows that live in config, not code.

Most business processes are five to fifteen steps with a few branches and a couple of async waits. Writing that as a microservice every time is overkill. eru-functions runs as JSON workflows with parallel, sequential, conditional, loop and async control flow — through one engine.

Call SQL, REST, agents, tools or other functions from any step, and move data between steps with Go templates.

Core features

Workflows, the JSON way

{ }

JSON defined Step Functions

Steps — QUERY, APIS, AGENTS, TOOLS, FUNCTIONS — composed via nesting into one declarative spec.

⇉

Parallel + Sequential

Run independent branches in parallel, chain dependent steps in sequence — both in the same group.

?

Conditional steps

Run a step only when a condition matches. Handle failed consitions as ERROR, STOP or IGNORE.

⌚

Async events

Long-running steps can spin off diffrent execution thread on chosen async eventing framework like Kafka, AWS SQS and more.

↻

Loops

Iterate any step based on previous step results — sequentially or in parallel.

⇄

Go-template transforms

Reshape request and response between steps by manipulating JSON requests and responses of previous steps.

⌫

Field redaction

Remove sensitive information or large data values before they leak into logs or next steps.

⌬

Auto generate Functions

An eru-ai Agent can produce workflow JSON based on user's prompt.

🛈

Custom headers, forms, files

Configure additional headers, query params, form data and file attachments for any function step.

Configure, don't code

A FuncGroup in JSON

No orchestration code. Add steps, branches and async waits by editing config.
