What it does

RuleGo is a lightweight framework for Go that enables high-performance component orchestration, allowing startup founders to efficiently manage and automate complex workflows and rules

Install / run

go get github.com/rulego/rulego

When to use it

•When building a Go-based application that requires scalable and performant rule-based decision making
•When integrating multiple components or services that need to be orchestrated and managed dynamically
•When developing a real-time system that requires fast and efficient processing of rules and events

Quick start

1Create a new Go file (e.g., main.go) and import the RuleGo package: `import ("github.com/rulego/rulego")`
2Define a rule using the `rulego.NewRule` function, specifying the condition and action: `rule := rulego.NewRule("example-rule", rulego.When("condition"), rulego.Then("action"))`
3Create a new engine instance and add the rule: `engine := rulego.NewEngine(); engine.AddRule(rule)`
4Start the engine and trigger the rule: `engine.Start(); engine.Trigger("example-event")`
5Verify the rule execution result: `result := engine.GetResult(); log.Println(result)`

Ready-to-paste prompt

go run main.go -rule "example-rule" -event "example-event" -condition "condition=value" -action "action=take"

Heads up: Make sure to handle errors properly when working with RuleGo, as the `rulego.NewEngine` function returns an error value that needs to be checked and handled, e.g., `engine, err := rulego.NewEngine(); if err != nil { log.Fatal(err) }`
