This sample demonstrates the stateful behavior of a rule session through a simple shopping application which uses business rules. This sample should be deployed in a stateful axis2 session - i.e. session scope or transport scope.
Prerequisites
To run this sample:
- Windows, Linux or Solaris operating system should exist.
- WSO2 BRS should be installed. To install the BRS, refer Installing the Product. This also includes installing Apache Ant as one of the Installation Prerequisites.
- WSO2 BRS should be started as described in Running the Product.
Sample Configuration
Sample Rule Definition
Rules
Rule 1: Apply a 10% discount if the value of total purchases is over 100.
Facts
There are two facts named A customer made a purchase
and A product is added
.
package samples.shopping; /** * Product */ public class Product { private String name; private float price; public String getName() { return name; } public float getPrice() { return price; } public void setName(String name) { this.name = name; } public void setPrice(float price) { this.price = price; } } package samples.shopping; /** * Customer */ public class Customer { private String name; private int discount; public Customer(String name, int discount) { this.name = name; this.discount = discount; } public String getName() { return name; } public int getDiscount() { return discount; } public void setDiscount(int discount) { this.discount = discount; } public void setName(String name) { this.name = name; } } package samples.shopping; /** * Discount */ public class Discount { private Customer customer; private int amount; public Discount(Customer customer, int amount) { this.customer = customer; this.amount = amount; } public Customer getCustomer() { return customer; } public int getAmount() { return amount; } public void setCustomer(Customer customer) { this.customer = customer; } public void setAmount(int amount) { this.amount = amount; } } package samples.shopping; /** * Purchase */ public class Purchase { private String customer; private String product; public String getCustomer() { return customer; } public void setCustomer(String customer) { this.customer = customer; } public String getProduct() { return product; } public void setProduct(String product) { this.product = product; } } package samples.shopping; /** * Purchase Log */ public class PurchaseLog { private String customer; private Product product; public PurchaseLog(String customer, Product product) { this.customer = customer; this.product = product; } public String getCustomer() { return customer; } public void setCustomer(String customer) { this.customer = customer; } public Product getProduct() { return product; } public void setProduct(Product product) { this.product = product; } }
Rule Service Configuration (service.rsl)
An in-line rule set is used within the service.rsl file as follows.
<ruleService name="ShoppingService" xmlns="http://wso2.org/carbon/rules" targetNamespace="http://com.test/shopping" scope="transportsession"> <ruleSet> <rule resourceType="regular" sourceType="inline"> <![CDATA[ package shopping dialect "mvel" import samples.shopping.Customer; import samples.shopping.Product; import samples.shopping.Purchase; import samples.shopping.Discount; import samples.shopping.PurchaseLog; rule "Purchase notification new customer" salience 11 no-loop true when $p : Purchase() not Customer(name == $p.customer) then System.out.println( "New Customer : " + $p.customer); insert(new Customer($p.customer, 0)); end rule "Purchase notification" salience 10 no-loop true when $c : Customer() $purchase : Purchase( customer == $c.name) $product : Product( name == $purchase.product) then insert(new PurchaseLog($c.name, $product)); modify($c){ setDiscount(0) } System.out.println( "Customer " + $c.name + " just purchased " + $product.name ); end rule "Apply 10% discount if total purchases is over 100" salience 9 no-loop true dialect "java" when $p : Purchase() $c : Customer(name == $p.customer) $i : Double(doubleValue > 100) from accumulate ( PurchaseLog( customer == $c.name, $price : product.price ), sum( $price ) ) then $c.setDiscount( 10 ); insert( new Discount($c, 10) ); System.out.println( "Customer " + $c.getName() + " now has a shopping total of " + $i ); end rule "cleanUp" salience 8 when $p : Purchase() then retract($p); end ]]> </rule> </ruleSet> <operation name="purchase"> <input wrapperElementName="purchaseOrder" namespace="http://com.test/purchaseOrder"> <fact elementName="purchase" namespace="http://com.test/purchaseOrder" type="samples.shopping.Purchase"></fact> </input> <output wrapperElementName="purchaseOrderRespone" namespace="http://com.test/purchaseOrder"> <fact elementName="discount" namespace="http://com.test/purchaseOrder" type="samples.shopping.Discount"></fact> </output> </operation> <operation name="addProduct"> <input wrapperElementName="addProduct" namespace="http://com.test/addProduct"> <fact elementName="addProduct" namespace="http://com.test/addProduct" type="samples.shopping.Product"></fact> </input> </operation> </ruleService>
Axis2 Service Configuration (services.xml)
<service name="ShoppingService" scope="transportsession"> <operation name="purchase"/> <operation name="addProduct" mep="http://www.w3.org/ns/wsdl/in-only"/> </service>
Executing the Sample
To execute the sample, run the ant
command from the <PRODUCT_HOME>/samples/quotation.service
directory to run the Shopping Service.
Before executing this sample, it is recommended that you refer Exposing Rules as Services Exposing Rules as Services which explains in detail the process of writing and deploying a business rule.
Deploying and Testing the Service
- Deploy the rule service through the BRS management console. You can follow either of the two methods:
- Bundle all artifacts in an .aar file and upload it (Rule Service -> Upload menu).
- Create using the Rule Service wizard UI (Rule Service -> Create menu).
The above steps are discussed in detail in section Exposing Rules as Services .
- After deployment, click on List under Services in the main tab of the management console. The service will appear in the Deployed Services page.
- Click Shopping Service to access the dashboard of the service.
- Click Try this service in the Client Operations widget of the dashboard to invoke the Try-it tool.
Issue a request similar to the following in the Try the Shoppingservice window to add a product.
<name>product name</name> <price>12.34</price>
You would get the following result:
Issue another request similar to the following to make a purchase:
<customer>your name </customer> <product>product name</product>
You would get the following result:
Alternatively, you can use Generate Client link in the
Client Operations
widget of the dashboard to invoke the service.
