Struct Engine 

pub struct Engine { /* private fields */ }

The main rule evaluation engine.

Holds a set of compiled rules and provides methods to evaluate events against them. Supports optional logsource routing for performance.

Example

use rsigma_parser::parse_sigma_yaml;
use rsigma_eval::{Engine, Event};
use rsigma_eval::event::JsonEvent;
use serde_json::json;

let yaml = r#"
title: Detect Whoami
logsource:
    product: windows
    category: process_creation
detection:
    selection:
        CommandLine|contains: 'whoami'
    condition: selection
level: medium
"#;

let collection = parse_sigma_yaml(yaml).unwrap();
let mut engine = Engine::new();
engine.add_collection(&collection).unwrap();

let event_val = json!({"CommandLine": "cmd /c whoami"});
let event = JsonEvent::borrow(&event_val);
let matches = engine.evaluate(&event);
assert_eq!(matches.len(), 1);
assert_eq!(matches[0].rule_title, "Detect Whoami");

Implementations

impl Engine

pub fn new() -> Self

Create a new empty engine.

pub fn new_with_pipeline(pipeline: Pipeline) -> Self

Create a new engine with a pipeline.

pub fn set_bloom_prefilter(&mut self, enabled: bool)

Enable or disable bloom-filter pre-filtering of positive substring detection items.

When enabled, evaluate* short-circuits any positive substring matcher (Contains / StartsWith / EndsWith / AhoCorasickSet, alone or wrapped in CaseInsensitiveGroup) whose field cannot possibly contain a needle trigram.

Disabled by default. The per-event probe (trigram extraction + double hashing) costs ~1 µs on a typical CommandLine field, which outweighs the savings on rule sets where most events overlap with at least one needle. Enable for workloads that pair many substring rules with mostly-non-matching events; benchmark with eval_bloom_rejection before flipping it on in production.

pub fn bloom_prefilter_enabled(&self) -> bool

Returns whether bloom pre-filtering is currently enabled.

pub fn set_bloom_max_bytes(&mut self, max_bytes: usize)

Set the memory budget for the per-field bloom index.

Must be called before add_collection / add_rule for the new budget to take effect on the existing rule set; otherwise it is applied at the next index rebuild. The default budget is 1 MB, shared across all per-field filters. Lower the cap on memory- constrained deployments; raise it for large rule sets where the default starts evicting useful filters.

pub fn bloom_max_bytes(&self) -> Option<usize>

Returns the configured bloom memory budget, if one has been set explicitly. None means the crate default (1 MB) is in use.

pub fn set_include_event(&mut self, include: bool)

Set global include_event — when true, all match results include the full event JSON regardless of per-rule custom attributes.

pub fn add_pipeline(&mut self, pipeline: Pipeline)

Add a pipeline to the engine.

Pipelines are applied to rules during add_rule / add_collection. Only affects rules added after this call.

pub fn add_rule(&mut self, rule: &SigmaRule) -> Result<()>

Add a single parsed Sigma rule.

If pipelines are set, the rule is cloned and transformed before compilation. The inverted index is rebuilt after adding the rule.

pub fn add_collection(&mut self, collection: &SigmaCollection) -> Result<()>

Add all detection rules from a parsed collection, then apply filters.

Filter rules modify referenced detection rules by appending exclusion conditions. Correlation rules are handled by CorrelationEngine. The inverted index is rebuilt once after all rules and filters are loaded.

pub fn add_collection_with_pipelines( &mut self, collection: &SigmaCollection, pipelines: &[Pipeline], ) -> Result<()>

Add all detection rules from a collection, applying the given pipelines.

This is a convenience method that temporarily sets pipelines, adds the collection, then clears them. The inverted index is rebuilt once after all rules and filters are loaded.

pub fn apply_filter(&mut self, filter: &FilterRule) -> Result<()>

Apply a filter rule to all referenced detection rules and rebuild the index.

pub fn add_compiled_rule(&mut self, rule: CompiledRule)

Add a pre-compiled rule directly and rebuild the index.

pub fn evaluate<E: Event>(&self, event: &E) -> Vec<MatchResult>

Evaluate an event against candidate rules using the inverted index.

pub fn evaluate_with_logsource<E: Event>( &self, event: &E, event_logsource: &LogSource, ) -> Vec<MatchResult>

Evaluate an event against candidate rules matching the given logsource.

Uses the inverted index for candidate pre-filtering, then applies the logsource constraint. Only rules whose logsource is compatible with event_logsource are evaluated.

pub fn evaluate_batch<E: Event + Sync>( &self, events: &[&E], ) -> Vec<Vec<MatchResult>>

Evaluate a batch of events, returning per-event match results.

When the parallel feature is enabled, events are evaluated concurrently using rayon’s work-stealing thread pool. Otherwise, falls back to sequential evaluation.

pub fn rule_count(&self) -> usize

Number of rules loaded in the engine.

pub fn rules(&self) -> &[CompiledRule]

Access the compiled rules.
