----------------------------------------
Github user nickwallen commented on the issue:
https://github.com/apache/metron/pull/687
> @cestella Should we perhaps separate parsing assignments (e.g. move
StellarAssignment.from into the language like you've done here) from actually
updating the variables.
@ottobackwards I didn't see you respond to this. I would agree with
@cestella on this.
> STELLAR Add Assignment capability to Stellar language

> Key: METRON-1090
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/METRON-1090
> Project: Metron
> Issue Type: New Feature
> Reporter: Otto Fowler
> Assignee: Otto Fowler
> Priority: Major
>
> Add support for =, +=, -=, *=, /= for variables in stellar.
> foo = 5 returns 5 AND sets foo to 5 if the VariableResolver supports it.
> The shell should be changed to assign variables using this syntax, because
> exposing the left side to stellar allows catching errors for invalid keywords
> in left side.
