About

Clara is a forward-chaining rules engine written in Clojure(Script) with Java interoperability. It aims to simplify code with a developer-centric approach to expert systems. See clara-rules.org for more.

NOTE: this fork only supports the JVM/Clojure, and not ClojureScript.

Usage

Here's a simple example. Complete documentation is at clara-rules.org.

(ns clara.support-example
  (:require [clara.rules :refer :all]
            [futurama.core :refer [!<!!]))

(defrecord SupportRequest [client level])

(defrecord ClientRepresentative [name client])

(defrule is-important
  "Find important support requests."
  [SupportRequest (= :high level)]
  =>
  (println "High support requested!"))

(defrule notify-client-rep
  "Find the client representative and send a notification of a support request."
  [SupportRequest (= ?client client)]
  [ClientRepresentative (= ?client client) (= ?name name)] ; Join via the ?client binding.
  =>
  (println "Notify" ?name "that"  ?client "has a new support request!"))

;; We can just use Clojure's threading macro to wire things up below.

;; Run the rules!
(-> (mk-session)
    (insert (->ClientRepresentative "Alice" "Acme")
            (->SupportRequest "Acme" :high))
    (fire-rules))

;; Run the rules asynchronously!
(!<!! (-> (mk-session)
          (insert (->ClientRepresentative "Alice" "Acme")
                  (->SupportRequest "Acme" :high))
          (fire-rules-async {:parallel-batch-size 50})))

;;;; Prints this:

;; High support requested!
;; Notify Alice that Acme has a new support request!
