----------------------------------
Summary: EventTypeRegistry evaluating events based upon event
condition
Key: UNOMI-483
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/UNOMI-483
Project: Apache Unomi
Issue Type: Improvement
Components: core
Affects Versions: 1.5.5
Reporter: Ben Schiefer
The EventTypeRegistry that was recently added (awesome feature, by the way)
([https://github.com/apache/unomi/pull/236/files)] is currently keyed based on
the eventType string on the event coming in. Unfortunately, this will not work
with how we are using Unomi, thus preventing us from any future upgrades.
In our design, we use eventType as more of a "verb", so you can have the same
eventType string applying to multiple different sets of valid properties.
Example:
```
eventType target.itemType source.itemType
view page site
view survey page
view surveyQuestion survey
submit form page
submit survey page
submit surveyQuestion survey
```
I'm hoping that the EventTypeRegistry can be updated to allow for condition
based event matching, not just validation based on the eventType string
(perhaps falling back to the eventType mapping if no condition is set?).
Here is a contrived example of what I mean
/META-INF/cxs/events/submitSurvey.json
```
{
"type": "submitSurvey",
"condition": {
"type": "booleanCondition",
"parameterValues": {
"operator": "and",
"subConditions": [
{
"type": "eventTypeCondition",
"parameterValues": {
"eventTypeId": "submit"
}
},
{
"type": "eventPropertyCondition",
"parameterValues": {
"propertyName": "target.itemType",
"propertyValue": "survey",
"comparisonOperator": "equals"
}
}
]
}
},
"propertyTypes": [
{
"itemId": "target",
"type": "set",
"childPropertyTypes": [
{
"itemId": "itemId",
"type": "string"
},
{
"itemId": "properties",
"type": "set"
}
]
}
]
}
```
Thoughts?
