PHPRules is a PHP 5.3 fork of the [php-rules](http://www.swindle.net/php-rules/) project.

Getting started
---------------

[](#getting-started)

"PHP Rules is a rule engine that models formal propositional logic. It allows you to separate conditional logic from source code and database triggers in a reusable package, where explicit rules can be independently defined and managed."

[...more](http://www.swindle.net/php-rules/tutorials/getting-started)

New Features
------------

[](#new-features)

- simplified rule syntax using `BOOL`/`VAR` to indicate propositions/variables
- refactored rule/context loading that should make it easier to integrate into different storage systems
- `IN` operator to evaluate if a value exists in a list
- support to dynamically add operators
- `CompositeRule` class to allow to pragmatically create nested rules

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

The recommended way to install phprules is [through composer](http://getcomposer.org). Just create a `composer.json` file and run the `php composer.phar install` command to install it:

```
{
    "require": {
        "radebatz/phprules": "1.0.*@dev"
    }
}

```

Alternatively, you can download the [`phprules.zip`](https://github.com/DerManoMann/phprules/archive/master.zip) file and extract it.
