Logical Condition Or not working as expected.

Firstly, thanks for this great library. It is the first and alone in NPM.

But I'm getting some trouble.

This code needs to return true but returns false;

var mervjs = require("mervjs").default;

const mervInstance = mervjs({variables: {"PDP_title":'ABC',"article_description":'Brille-Ray-Ban-Schwarz'}});
const mervExpression = 'PDP_title=="Seenx" || article_description=="Brille-Ray-Ban-Schwarz"';

var result = mervInstance.parse(mervExpression)(); // result must be true but returning false

Also this code doesn't work as expected.

var mervjs = require("mervjs").default;

const mervInstance = mervjs({variables: {"PDP_title":'ABC',"article_description":'Brille-Ray-Ban-Schwarz'}});
const mervExpression = 'PDP_title=="ABC" && article_description=="Brille-Ray-Ban-Schwarz"';

var result = mervInstance.parse(mervExpression)(); //must be true but returning false

am I doing a mistake in expression?

Because the parser does not implement operator precedence the expression that is actually executing is not what you intend.

'PDP_title=="Seenx" || article_description=="Brille-Ray-Ban-Schwarz"'

I know what you want to execute with that statement but what is actually being executed is: ((article_description=="Brille-Ray-Ban-Schwarz") || "Seenx") == PDP_title

This is annoying enough that I think a bug is justified.

This library was written on a lark in a couple of hours, I can't commit to fixing the problem. Patches are welcome, of course, but it's also reasonable to another library.

Thank you for reply.

Can you offer me another library that fits your requirements?
