I am planning to use Drools for executing the DMN models. However I am having trouble to write a condition in DMN Decision table where the input is an array of objects with structure data type and condition is to check if the array contains an object with specific fields. For ex: Input to decision table is as below:
[
{
"name": "abc",
"lastname": "pqr"
},
{
"name": "xyz",
"lastname": "lmn"
},
{
"name": "pqr",
"lastname": "jkl"
}
]
Expected output: True if the above list contains an element that match {"name": "abc", "lastname": "pqr"} both on the same element in the list.
I see that FEEL has support for list contains, but I could not find a syntax where objects in array are not of primitive types like number,string etc but structures. So, I need help on writing this condition in Decision table.
Thanks!
Edited description:
I am trying to achieve the following using the decision table wherein details is list of info structure. Unfortunately as you see I am not getting the desired output wherein my input list contains the specific element I am looking for.
Input: details = [{"name": "hello", "lastname": "world"}]
Expected Output = "Hello world" based on condition match in row 1 of the decision table.
Actual Output = null
NOTE: Also in row no 2 of the decision table, I only check for condition wherein I am only interested in the checking for the name field.
Content for the DMN file can be found over here
In this question is not clear the overall need and requirements for the Decision Table.
For what pertaining the part of the question about:
This can be indeed achieved with the
list contains()
function, described here.Example expression
where
my list
is the verbatim FEEL list from the original question statement.Example run:
giving the expected output,
true
.Naturally 2 context (complex structures) are the same if all their properties and fields are equivalent.
