+<h2 id="_concepts">2. Concepts</h2>
+<div class="sectionbody">
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>Apache Unomi gathers information about users actions, information that is processed and stored by Unomi services. The collected information can then be used to personalize content, derive insights on user behavior, categorize the user profiles into segments along user-definable dimensions or acted upon by algorithms.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="sect2">
+<h3 id="_items_and_types">2.1. Items and types</h3>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>Unomi structures the information it collects using the concept of <code>Item</code> which provides the base information (an identifier and a type) the context server needs to process and store the data. Items are persisted according to their type (structure) and identifier (identity). This base structure can be extended, if needed, using properties in the form of key-value pairs.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>These properties are further defined by the <code>Item</code>âs type definition which explicits the <code>Item</code>âs structure and semantics. By defining new types, users specify which properties (including the type of values they accept) are available to items of that specific type.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>Unomi defines default value types: <code>date</code>, <code>email</code>, <code>integer</code> and <code>string</code>, all pretty self-explanatory. While you can think of these value types as "primitive" types, it is possible to extend Unomi by providing additional value types.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>Additionally, most items are also associated to a scope, which is a concept that Unomi uses to group together related items. A given scope is represented in Unomi by a simple string identifier and usually represents an application or set of applications from which Unomi gathers data, depending on the desired analysis granularity. In the context of web sites, a scope could, for example, represent a site or family of related sites being analyzed. Scopes allow clients accessing the context server to filter data to only see relevant data.</p>

+<div class="paragraph">

+}</code></pre>
+</div>
+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>Some types can be dynamically defined at runtime by calling to the REST API while other extensions are done via Unomi plugins. Part of extending Unomi, therefore, is a matter of defining new types and specifying which kind of Unomi entity (e.g. profiles) they can be affected to. For example, the following JSON document can be passed to Unomi to declare a new property type identified (and named) <code>tweetNb</code>, tagged with the <code>social</code> tag, targeting profiles and using the <code>integer</code> value type.</p>

+<h3 id="_events">2.2. Events</h3>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>Users' actions are conveyed from clients to the context server using events. Of course, the required information depends on what is collected and users' interactions with the observed systems but events minimally provide a type, a scope and source and target items. Additionally, events are timestamped. Conceptually, an event can be seen as a sentence, the event’s type being the verb, the source the subject and the target the object.</p>

+<h3 id="_profiles">2.3. Profiles</h3>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>By processing events, Unomi progressively builds a picture of who the user is and how they behave. This knowledge is embedded in <code>Profile</code> object. A profile is an <code>Item</code> with any number of properties and optional segments and scores. Unomi provides default properties to cover common data (name, last name, age, email, etc.) as well as default segments to categorize users. Unomi users are, however, free and even encouraged to create additional properties and segments to better suit their needs.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>Contrary to other Unomi items, profiles are not part of a scope since we want to be able to track the associated user across applications. For this reason, data collected for a given profile in a specific scope is still available to any scoped item that accesses the profile information.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>It is interesting to note that there is not necessarily a one to one mapping between users and profiles as users can be captured across applications and different observation contexts. As identifying information might not be available in all contexts in which data is collected, resolving profiles to a single physical user can become complex because physical users are not observed directly. Rather, their portrait is progressively patched together and made clearer as Unomi captures more and more traces of their actions. Unomi will merge related profiles as soon as collected data permits positive association between distinct profiles, usually as a result of the user performing some identifying action in a context where the user hadnât already been positively identified.</p>

+<div class="sect2">
+<h3 id="_sessions">2.4. Sessions</h3>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>A session represents a time-bounded interaction between a user (via their associated profile) and a Unomi-enabled application. A session represents the sequence of actions the user performed during its duration. For this reason, events are associated with the session during which they occurred. In the context of web applications, sessions are usually linked to HTTP sessions.</p>

+integer property) as well as the URLs they tweeted from (as a <code>tweetedFrom</code> multi-valued string profile property).
+A javascript script will use the Twitter API to react to clicks on this button

+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>There are essentially two modalities to interact with the context server, reflecting different types of Unomi users: context server clients and context server integrators.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p><strong>Context server clients</strong> are usually web applications or content management systems. They interact with Unomi by providing raw, uninterpreted contextual data in the form of events and associated metadata. That contextual data is then processed by the context server to be fed to clients once actionable. In that sense context server clients are both consumers and producers of contextual data. Context server clients will mostly interact with Unomi using a single entry point called the <code>ContextServlet</code>, requesting context for the current user and providing any triggered events along the way.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>On the other hand, <strong>context server integrators</strong> provide ways to feed more structured data to the context server either to integrate with third party services or to provide analysis of the uninterpreted data provided by context server clients. Such integration will mostly be done using Unomi’s API either directly using Unomi plugins or via the provided REST APIs. However, access to REST APIs is restricted due for security reasons, requiring privileged access to the Unomi server, making things a little more complex to set up.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>For simplicity’s sake, this document will focus solely on the first use case and will interact only with the context servlet.</p>
+</div>
+</div>
+<div class="sect3">
+<h4 id="_retrieving_context_information_from_unomi_using_the_context_servlet">4.3.3. Retrieving context information from Unomi using the context servlet</h4>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>Unomi provides two ways to retrieve context: either as a pure JSON object containing strictly context information or as a couple of JSON objects augmented with javascript functions that can be used to interact with the Unomi server using the <code><context server base URL>/context.json</code> or <code><context server base URL>/context.js</code> URLs, respectively.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>Below is an example of asynchronously loading the initial context using the javascript version, assuming a default Unomi install running on <code><a href="http://localhost:8181" class="bare">http://localhost:8181</a></code>:</p>

+</div>
+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>This initial context results in a javascript file providing some functions to interact with the context server from javascript along with two objects: a <code>cxs</code> object containing

+<a href="http://www.w3.org/2013/12/ceddl-201312.pdf">Customer Experience Digital Data Layer</a> standard). Note that this last object is not under control of the context server and clients
+ are free to use it or not. Our example will not make use of it.</p>

+<p>Globally, the script loads both the twitter widget and the initial context asynchronously (as shown previously). This is accomplished using fairly standard javascript code and we won’t look at it here. Using the Twitter API, we react to the <code>tweet</code> event and call the Unomi server to update the user’s profile with the required information, triggering a custom <code>tweetEvent</code> event.

+<p>If we specify a payload, it is expected to use the JSON format so we <code>stringify</code> it and encode it if passed as a URL parameter in a <code>GET</code> request.</p>

+<li>
+<p>We need to make a <a href="https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Access_control_CORS"><code>CORS</code></a> request since the Unomi server is most likely not running on the same host than the one from which the request originates. The specific details are fairly standard and we will not explain them here.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>We need to either retrieve (from the initial context we retrieved previously using <code>cxs.sessionId</code>) or generate a session identifier for our request since Unomi currently requires one.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>We’re calling the <code>ContextServlet</code> using the default install URI, specifying the session identifier: <code><a href="http://localhost:8181/context.json?sessionId='" class="bare">http://localhost:8181/context.json?sessionId='</a>; + sessionId</code>. This URI requests context from Unomi, resulting in an updated <code>cxs</code> object in the javascript global scope. The context server can reply to this request either by returning a JSON-only object containing solely the context information as is the case when the requested URI is <code>context.json</code>. However, if the client requests <code>context.js</code> then useful functions to interact with Unomi are added to the <code>cxs</code> object in addition to the context information as depicted above.</p>
+</li>
+<li>
+<p>We don’t need to provide any authentication at all to interact with this part of Unomi since we only have access to read-only data (as well as providing events as we shall see later on). If we had been using the REST API, we would have needed to provide authentication information as well.</p>

+<div class="sect4">
+<h5 id="_context_request_and_response_structure">Context request and response structure</h5>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>The interesting part, though, is the payload. This is where we provide Unomi with contextual information as well as ask for data in return. This allows clients to specify which type of information they are interested in getting from the context server as well as specify incoming events or content filtering or property/segment overrides for personalization or impersonation. This conditions what the context server will return with its response.</p>

+}</code></pre>

+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>We will now look at each part in greater details.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="sect5">
+<h6 id="_source">Source</h6>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>A context request payload needs to at least specify some information about the source of the request in the form of an <code>Item</code> (meaning identifier, type and scope plus any additional properties we might have to provide), via the <code>source</code> property of the payload. Of course the more information can be provided about the source, the better.</p>
+</div>
+</div>
+<div class="sect5">
+<h6 id="_filters">Filters</h6>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>A client wishing to perform content personalization might also specify filtering conditions to be evaluated by the context server so that it can tell the client whether the content associated with the filter should be activated for this profile/session. This is accomplished by providing a list of filter definitions to be evaluated by the context server via the <code>filters</code> field of the payload. If provided, the evaluation results will be provided in the <code>filteringResults</code> field of the resulting <code>cxs</code> object the context server will send.</p>
+</div>
+</div>
+<div class="sect5">
+<h6 id="_overrides">Overrides</h6>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>It is also possible for clients wishing to perform user impersonation to specify properties or segments to override the proper ones so as to emulate a specific profile, in which case the overridden value will temporarily replace the proper values so that all rules will be evaluated with these values instead of the proper ones. The <code>segments</code> (array of segment identifiers), <code>profileProperties</code> (maps of property name and associated object value) and <code>scores</code> (maps of score id and value) all wrapped in a profileOverrides object and the <code>sessionPropertiesOverrides</code> (maps of property name and associated object value) fields allow to provide such information. Providing such overrides will, of course, impact content filtering results and segments matching for this specific request.</p>
+</div>
+</div>
+<div class="sect5">
+<h6 id="_controlling_the_content_of_the_response">Controlling the content of the response</h6>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>The clients can also specify which information to include in the response by setting the <code>requireSegments</code> property to true if segments the current profile matches should be returned or provide an array of property identifiers for <code>requiredProfileProperties</code> or <code>requiredSessionProperties</code> fields to ask the context server to return the values for the specified profile or session properties, respectively. This information is provided by the <code>profileProperties</code>, <code>sessionProperties</code> and <code>profileSegments</code> fields of the context server response.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>Additionally, the context server will also returns any tracked conditions associated with the source of the context request. Upon evaluating the incoming request, the context server will determine if there are any rules marked with the <code>trackedCondition</code> tag and which source condition matches the source of the incoming request and return these tracked conditions to the client. The client can use these tracked conditions to learn that the context server can react to events matching the tracked condition and coming from that source. This is, in particular, used to implement form mapping (a solution that allows clients to update user profiles based on values provided when a form is submitted).</p>
+</div>
+</div>
+<div class="sect5">
+<h6 id="_events_2">Events</h6>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>Finally, the client can specify any events triggered by the user actions, so that the context server can process them, via the <code>events</code> field of the context request.</p>
+</div>
+</div>
+<div class="sect5">
+<h6 id="_default_response">Default response</h6>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>If no payload is specified, the context server will simply return the minimal information deemed necessary for client applications to properly function: profile identifier, session identifier and any tracked conditions that might exist for the source of the request.</p>

+<p>In our case, our <code>source</code> item looks as follows: we specify a scope for our application (<code>unomi-tweet-button-samples</code>), specify that the item type (i.e. the kind of element that is the source of our event) is a <code>page</code> (which corresponds, as would be expected, to a web page), provide an identifier (in our case, a Base-64 encoded version of the page’s URL) and finally, specify extra properties (here, simply a <code>url</code> property corresponding to the page’s URL that will be used when we process our event in our Unomi extension).</p>

+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>We also specify that we want the context server to return the values of the <code>tweetNb</code> and <code>tweetedFrom</code> profile properties in its response. Finally, we provide a custom event of type <code>tweetEvent</code> with associated scope and source information, which matches the source of our context request in this case.</p>

+<p>The <code>tweetEvent</code> event type is not defined by default in Unomi. This is where our Unomi plugin comes into play since we need to tell Unomi how to react when it encounters such events.</p>

+<div class="sect4">
+<h5 id="_unomi_plugin_overview">Unomi plugin overview</h5>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>In order to react to <code>tweetEvent</code> events, we will define a new Unomi rule since this is exactly what Unomi rules are supposed to do. Rules are guarded by conditions and if these
+ conditions match, the associated set of actions will be executed. In our case, we want our new
+ <a href="https://github.com/apache/incubator-unomi/blob/master/samples/tweet-button-plugin/src/main/resources/META-INF/cxs/rules/incrementTweetNumber.json"><code>incrementTweetNumber</code></a> rule to only react to <code>tweetEvent</code> events and

+<p>Rules define a metadata section where we specify the rule name, identifier and description.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>When rules trigger, a specific event is raised so that other parts of Unomi can react to it accordingly. We can control how that event should be raised. Here we specify that the event should be raised each time the rule triggers and not only once per session by setting <code>raiseEventOnlyOnceForSession</code> to <code>false</code>, which is not strictly required since that is the default. A similar setting (<code>raiseEventOnlyOnceForProfile</code>) can be used to specify that the event should only be raised once per profile if needed.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>We could also specify a priority for our rule in case it needs to be executed before other ones when similar conditions match. This is accomplished using the <code>priority</code> property. We’re using the default priority here since we don’t have other rules triggering on `tweetEvent`s and don’t need any special ordering.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>We then tell Unomi which condition should trigger the rule via the <code>condition</code> property. Here, we specify that we want our rule to trigger on an <code>eventTypeCondition</code> condition. Unomi can be extended by adding new condition types that can enrich how matching or querying is performed. The condition type definition file specifies which parameters are expected for our condition to be complete. In our case, we use the built-in event type condition that will match if Unomi receives an event of the type specified in the condition’s <code>eventTypeId</code> parameter value: <code>tweetEvent</code> here.</p>
+</div>
+<div class="paragraph">
+<p>Finally, we specify a list of actions that should be performed as consequences of the rule matching. We only need one action of type <code>incrementTweetNumberAction</code> that doesn’t require any parameters.</p>
