Hi, I am trying to figure out a rule for matching an incoming sequence of events, but so far I was not really successful. Basically, I want to process events from devices. Every event has a timestamp (long), an id (a UUID string), a deviceId and an error code (both are strings).
What I want to have is a simple rule that fires, if a single device reports a certain error code (e.g. ABCD) 3 times within 5 minutes (i.e., getting 3 such events within 5 minutes). So far, I suceeded in counting the ABCD error codes in the time window as follows: rule "Detect 3 occurrences of code ABCD for a certain device" when Number( intValue == 3 ) from accumulate( Event( $i : id, code == "ABCD") over window:time( 5m ), count( $i ) ) then System.out.println("Raise alarm"); end This first attempt does not distinguish which device sent the error code. But how can I express to fire only if the events share the same deviceId? I found many solutions that use a fact (e.g., a device fact) to group by the device and do the accumulation. I successfully implemented the group-by using the following when-part of the rule. when Device($deviceId : id) Number( intValue == 2 ) from accumulate( Event( $i : id, deviceId == $deviceId, code == "ABCD") over window:time( 5m ), count( $i ) ) then Adding a device fact is however not practical in my case. Are there any alternatives for expressing this group-by?
