Executing a Decision on irServer SOAP endpoint using a Service Reference

Prerequisites: A valid Service Reference

See Also: irServer - Rule Execution Service

The following sample represents how to execute a Decision on irServer Rule Execution Service using a service reference:

using (RuleEngineServiceClient proxy = new RuleEngineServiceClient()) 
{ 
 // Get RuleApp as defined in the config (RepositoryRuleApp or FileSystemRuleApp) 
 RepositoryRuleApp ruleApp = new RepositoryRuleApp 
 { 
 RepositoryServiceUri = "http://localhost/InRuleCatalogService/Service.svc", 
 RepositoryRuleAppRevisionSpec = new RepositoryRuleAppRevisionSpec { RuleApplicationName ="AreaCalculator" }, UserName = "Admin", 
 Password = "password" 
 }; 
 // Create new ExecuteDecisionRequest 
 ExecuteDecisionRequest request = new ExecuteDecisionRequest 
 { 
 RuleApp = ruleApp, 
 DecisionName = "CalculateArea", 
 InputState = "{\\"Height\\":50,\\"Width\\":3}", // Note: Decisions only accept JSON input 
 RuleEngineServiceOutputTypes = new RuleEngineServiceOutputTypes { 
 ActiveNotifications = true, 
 ActiveValidations = true 
 } 
 }; 
 try 
 { 
 // Submit request 
 Console.WriteLine("- Calling ExecuteDecition on RuleEngineService..."); 
 ExecuteDecisionResponse response = 
(ExecuteDecisionResponse)proxy.ExecuteRuleEngineRequest(request); 
 Console.WriteLine("Active Notifications:"); 
 foreach (Notification notification in response.ActiveNotifications) { 
 Console.WriteLine($"[{notification.NotificationType}]: {notification.Message}"); 
 } 
 Console.WriteLine(""); 
 Console.WriteLine("Active Validations:"); 
 foreach (Validation validation in response.ActiveValidations) { 
 Console.WriteLine(validation.InvalidMessageText); 
 } 
 Console.WriteLine(""); 
 // Note: Decisions only support the output of JSON, not XML 
 Console.WriteLine("Decision Output:"); 
 Console.WriteLine(response.OutputState); 
 Console.WriteLine(""); 
 } 
 catch (Exception ex) { 
 Console.WriteLine($"Unknown exception occurred during RuleEngineService request: {ex}"); 
 } 
}
