Rule Patterns

Each rule must specify a pattern which is used to evaluate whether that rule applies to an event or not. Consider the following event submitted by the device:

{
    "eventSource": "source-nodeid"
    "eventType":"event-name-you-specify",
    "timestamp": 0,
    "data": {
        "key1": "value1",
        "key2": {
          "key3":"value3"
        },
        "anarray": ["i1", "i2", "i3"]
    }
}

Patterns exist to match Fields in incoming Events. A Field is the combination of a Leaf value and a Path, a list of strings which are the Field names that must be traversed to reach it from the Event root JSON Object. A Pattern MUST be a JSON object all of whose Leaf values MUST be in arrays.

{}   //Matches all events

{
    "eventSource": ["specific-nodeid-1", "specific-nodeid-2"] // Matches events from node 1 or node 2
}

{
    "eventType": ["event-type-1", "event-type-2"] // Matches when event type is event-type-1 or event-type-2
}

{"data":{"key1":["value1"]} // Matches with events in which data contains a key1 field with value: value1
