Powerful Features
Everything you need to define, test, and execute complex business rules in a maintainable way.
Interactive Interview
Run any decision table as a conversation. The engine executes your rules and, whenever it
reaches a collect field that wasn't supplied, it pauses
and asks — on the CLI or in the browser. Batch execution is unchanged and pays zero overhead.
- Typed questions: multiple_choice, ascii, number, date
- Lab-style ranges: number questions flag answers High/Low — never rejected
- Collect → save → replay:
--save,--data,--review
Decision Tables
Decision tables provide a tabular way to represent complex business logic. Each column represents a rule, with conditions at the top and actions at the bottom. This format is intuitive for both policy experts and developers.
- Conditions: Boolean expressions that determine when a rule fires
- Actions: Operations executed when conditions match
- Table Types: BALANCED, FIRST, or ALL execution modes
Entity: Person
- name: string
- age: integer
- income: decimal
- dependents: Person[]
Entity: Application
- applicant: Person
- submitted_date: date
- status: stringEntity Data Dictionary
Define your data model in Excel using the Entity Data Dictionary (EDD). Specify entities, attributes, their types, and relationships. These are compiled to XML for use by the rules engine.
- Support for primitives, arrays, and entity references
- JSON data mapping for rule entities
- Default values and validation rules
Expression Language
Write conditions and actions in EL (Expression Language) - a readable syntax designed for policy experts. Compiled to efficient bytecode with robust parsing and clear error messages.
- 330+ operators for math, boolean, string, date, and array operations
- Human-readable syntax that policy experts can validate
- Compile-time validation catches errors before runtime
// Conditions
applicant.age >= 18
applicant.income < poverty_level * 2
count of applicant.dependents > 0
// Actions
set application.eligible = true
add applicant to eligible_list
