Hi,

Here is some sample code to add a rule to a node. In this case the rule will add the Verisonable aspect to all nodes of type Content for a particular space.


  Rule rule = new Rule();
  rule.setRuleType(RuleType.INBOUND);
  rule.setTitle("Your Rule Title");
  rule.applyToChildren(false); // set this to true if you want to cascade to sub folders
      
  CompositeAction compositeAction = actionService.createCompositeAction();
  rule.setAction(compositeAction);
      
  ActionCondition actionCondition = actionService.createActionCondition(IsSubTypeEvaluator.NAME); 
      
  Map<String, Serializable> conditionParameters = new HashMap<String, Serializable>(1);
  conditionParameters.put(IsSubTypeEvaluator.PARAM_TYPE, ContentModel.TYPE_CONTENT); // setting subtypes to CONTENT
  actionCondition.setParameterValues(conditionParameters);
            
  compositeAction.addActionCondition(actionCondition);
      
  Action action = actionService.createAction(AddFeaturesActionExecuter.NAME);        // The Add Aspect Action            
  action.setTitle("Your action title");
  action.setExecuteAsynchronously(false);
      
  Map<String, Serializable> ruleParameters = new HashMap<String, Serializable>(1);
  ruleParameters.put(AddFeaturesActionExecuter.PARAM_ASPECT_NAME, ContentModel.ASPECT_VERSIONABLE); // The Aspect to add      
  action.setParameterValues(ruleParameters);
      
  compositeAction.addAction(action);
            
  ruleService.saveRule(nodeRef, rule); // Save the rule to your nodeRef

Hope that helps.

sjeandroz,

I wrote some code to create rules based on json descriptors.

Take a look at my blog post and see if it helps:
