NimbostratusIrules Editor
HI Guys. I read on an article that there is an Irules editor here in DevCentral, to check rules syntax before
testing. I'm totally new so this would be very useful i think. Is that true ? where can i find it ?
Generally speaking is possible to upload Irules code and have some expert opinion ? If Yes how ?
Thank you for your help
Regards
Mario
MarioMoneta I'm not sure of the application here but I use "Visual Studio Code" with the "F5 Network iRules" Extension installed. I believe the following is the link you need to get it all sorted with "Visual Studio Code" in Windows.
iRules Editor & Declarative Development with Visual Studio Code | DevCentral
As far as assistance with iRules people would normally create a new post explaining their issue or what they're trying to achieve and then the iRule in question. Most people are pretty helpful here when provided enough information to figure out a solution. The following search will probably show you a significant amount of previous posts where someone has asked for assistance with iRules and the ultimate solution to the query.
I can't say for certain that an iRule assistance post will end up with a solution but most of the time a solution to the iRule or the problem itself is provided.

boneyardThe source code for that original program is on github, but it hasn't been touched in years

The suggestion done here is the way to go.
MarioMonetaThank You so much. I'l will try to post the code (in the "code share" section correct ? or technical forum would works better ? ) and what i would like to achieve, and let's see what happen... i guess you are right sometimes answers don't give solutions, but they are useful as a brainstorming and for new ideas to come up... thank you again for the answer and the suggestions...

MarioMoneta - post your question and prospective irules code in the technical forum - review/refine etc until you are happy that it does what you want.
Then, if you like, write up the solution you come up with in the codeshare section - it would be helpful if you can describe the problem you are solving for and then link to the forum conversation that led you to that solution.
