Corona-Warn-App: json-functions-swift

A native Swift implementation of JsonFunctions.

JsonFunctions (JFN) is a generic logic engine that is capable of processing functions that are described in a JSON format. It is a compatible extension of JsonLogic.

Instalation

Using Swift Package Manager

if you use Swift Package Manager add the following in dependencies:

    dependencies: [
    .package(
        url: "https://github.com/corona-warn-app/json-functions-swift", from: "2.0.3"
    )
]

Usage

You simply import the module and either call the applyRule global method:

import jsonlogic

let rule =
"""
{ "var" : "name" }
"""
let data =
"""
{ "name" : "Jon" }
"""

//Example parsing
let result: String? = try? applyRule(rule, to: data)

print("result = \(String(describing: result))")

The applyRule will parse the rule then apply it to the data and try to convert the result to the inferred return type, if it fails an error will be thrown.

If you need to apply the same rule to multiple data then it will be better to parse the rule once. You can do this by initializing a JsonRule object with the rule and then calling applyRule.

//Example parsing
let jsonlogic = try JsonLogic(rule)

var result: Bool = jsonlogic.applyRule(to: data1)
result = jsonlogic.applyRule(to: data2)
//etc..

Examples

Simple

let rule = """
{ "==" : [1, 1] }
"""

let result: Bool = try JsonFunctions().applyRule(rule)
//evaluates to true

This is a simple test, equivalent to 1 == 1. A few things about the format:

1. The operator is always in the "key" position. There is only one key per JsonLogic rule.
2. The values are typically an array.
3. Each value can be a string, number, boolean, array (non-associative), or null

Compound

Here we're beginning to nest rules.

let rule = """
  {"and" : [
    { ">" : [3,1] },
    { "<" : [1,3] }
  ] }
"""
let result: Bool = try JsonFunctions().applyRule(rule)
//evaluates to true

In an infix language this could be written as:

( (3 > 1) && (1 < 3) )

Data-Driven

Obviously these rules aren't very interesting if they can only take static literal data. Typically jsonLogic will be called with a rule object and a data object. You can use the var operator to get attributes of the data object:

let rule = """
  { "var" : ["a"] }
"""
let data = """
  { a : 1, b : 2 }
"""
let result: Int = try JsonFunctions().applyRule(rule, to: data)
//evaluates to 1

If you like, we support to skip the array around values:

let rule = """
  { "var" : "a" }
"""
let data = """
  { a : 1, b : 2 }
"""
let result: Int = try JsonFunctions().applyRule(rule, to: data)
//evaluates to 1

You can also use the var operator to access an array by numeric index:

jsonLogic.apply(
  {"var" : 1 },
  [ "apple", "banana", "carrot" ]
);
// "banana"

Here's a complex rule that mixes literals and data. The pie isn't ready to eat unless it's cooler than 110 degrees, and filled with apples.

let rule = """
{ "and" : [
  {"<" : [ { "var" : "temp" }, 110 ]},
  {"==" : [ { "var" : "pie.filling" }, "apple" ] }
] }
"""
let data = """
  { "temp" : 100, "pie" : { "filling" : "apple" } }
"""

let result: Bool = try JsonFunctions().applyRule(rule, to: data)
//evaluates to true

Custom operators

You can register a custom operator

import jsonlogic
import JSON

// the key is the operator and the value is a closure that takes as argument
// a JSON and returns a JSON
let customRules =
    ["numberOfElementsInArray": { (json: JSON?) -> JSON in                                 
        switch json {
        case let .Array(array):
            return JSON(array.count)
        default:
            return JSON(0)
        }
    }]

let rule = """
    { "numberOfElementsInArray" : [1, 2, 3] }
"""

// The value is 3
let value: Int = try JsonLogic(rule, customOperators: customRules).applyRule()

How to contribute

The German government has asked SAP and Deutsche Telekom AG to develop the Corona-Warn-App for Germany as open source software. Deutsche Telekom is providing the network and mobile technology and will operate and run the backend for the app in a safe, scalable and stable manner. SAP is responsible for the app development, its framework and the underlying platform. Therefore, development teams of SAP and Deutsche Telekom are contributing to this project. At the same time our commitment to open source means that we are enabling -in fact encouraging- all interested parties to contribute and become part of its developer community.

For more information about how to contribute, the project structure, as well as additional contribution information, see our Contribution Guidelines. By participating in this project, you agree to abide by its Code of Conduct at all times.
