Altair SmartCore SDK is composed of:

SDK engine

Altair SmartCore SDK engine is based on Java technology. It’s goal is to execute Groovy scripts in a user context. It provides those main functionalities:

• Communication protocol implementation between the engine and the listeners
• Security
  • Execution time
  • Memory consumption
  • Libraries encapsulation
• Entity visibility delimitation through Altair SmartCore Authentication service. Each user will only see own data
• Build a context for each execution

Communication protocol

Communication between a listener event’s dispatchers and Altair SmartCore SDK engine follows a REST API approach. Internally coded in JSON format, the protocol has two main parts:

• Request composed by the context and the code be executed
• Response composed by:
  • Code: 200 (OK) or 4004 (error)
  • Message: response message
  • Details: more response details

This structure can be seen in Altair SmartCore console response.

Libraries

Altair SmartCore SDK provides support for standard Groovy libraries.
For example:

Refer to http://docs.groovy-lang.org/latest/html/gapi/ for more information about Groovy API

Altair SmartCore SDK API is completed with its own set of libraries divided in two main parts:

• Altair SmartCore core entities management: com.altair.sc
• Altair SmartCore utility classes: com.altair.sc.utils
