[rules-users] How to retrieve the Rule names in the drools rule file

[Wolfgang Laun]

You might use the API to retrieve all rules in your KnowledgeBase

KnowledgeBase kBase = ...;

for( KnowledgePackage kp: kBase.getKnowledgePackages() ){
      for( Rule r: kp.getRules() ){
            String name = r.getName();
            String purpose = r.getMetaAttribute( "Purpose" );  // or similar
- see below
            System.out.println( "Rule " + name + ", purpose: " + purpose );
      }
}

Rule names may not provide sufficient information. You could add arbitrary
metadata to your rules, e.g.,

rule "pqx"
   @Purpose( "locates very interesting facts" )
   when
   ...
end
