Most business rules can be represented by the following rule definition:

• Name: a unique rule name within a rules namespace
• Description: a brief description of the rule
• Priority: rule priority regarding to other rules
• Conditions: set of conditions that should be satisfied to apply the rule
• Actions: set of actions to perform when conditions are satisfied

Easy Rules provides an abstraction for each of these key points that define a business rule.

Next section will show you how to define a rule in Easy Rules either by extending a base class or by annotating your own domain class.
