Rule Template

Rule template

The development guide has dewtailed information on how to author the XML rules:

https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_jboss_migration_toolkit/3.0/html-single/windup_rules_development_guide/index#xml_rule_structure

As we draft the Azure rules, we need to think of the following high level properties:

• tags
• hints
• targets
• classification

A classification has the following properties:

• title
• description
• effort
• quickfix
• links

To draft a rule, we may need to use high-level logic decision tree, such as:

when(app has postgres) and (app is spring)
  perform()
    hint(configure app to connect to postgresql with passwordless using spring data)
    link(<url to azure spring postgres tutorial>)
otherwise()
  perform()
    hint(configure app to connect to postgresql with passwordless using jdbc)
    link(<url to generic jdbc postgres tutorial>)
