Irule Editor Syntax Check
I'm a developer tasked with writing the iRule, but they don't give me access to the f5. I toss the iRules over the fence and they send me back syntax errors. And then i blindly make changes and toss them back over the fence. The iRule Editor does not seem to allow syntax checking without connecting to the f5.
Not much use to me. Can you make the syntax check available without connection to the f5?
- JeffH_39464NimbostratusI'm pretty sure the reason that the iRule Editor requires to be connected to a live F5 box is because it uses iControl to perform the syntax checking. The checks are built into TMOS and not the client itself.
- Aaron_Forster_3Historic F5 AccountLikelyhood is low. iRuler relies on the bigip to do the syntax checking rather than trying to write the full syntax checker ourselves. I wrote an iRule editor in java called Njod and rely on the same functionality.
