irules withour rule name { }

[olanystrom]

I use a lot of iRules with ansibles bigip_irule and the irules and not wrapped in rule name { IRULE } Is there a way to use testcl to test them?

Or do I have to make a builder-script to wrap the files in rule NAME {} to be able to test them?

Currently this is not directly supported. Have you tried wrapping using the tcl source command?

That works fine. I have a tests-directory with the test and a .tcl that wraps with

rule name {
   source ../real_irule
}```

Now I have to figure out how to test my class-based stuff

Have you checked https://github.com/landro/TesTcl/blob/master/examples/example_irule_classes.tcl … Yes, and that makes it mostly succesful.

I had to rewrite some irules to be allowed with testcl.

if{ $lower_host eq "example.com"}
{
   do_something
}

that we have in production in F5:s are not allowed in the test, it has to be rewritten as

if{ $lower_host eq "example.com"} {
   do_something
}

also, it didnt like my use of [HTTP::host] inside strings. For example it didn't like

log local0. "Access to [HTTP::host] with uri [HTTP::uri]" 

At least I think that was the problem.
