[rules-users] What is uberfire?

[Mark Proctor]

We'll be announcing it officially in a few weeks time, once enough features are there, and we have something we can demo.

UberFire the new workbench framework we are building, for our 6.x series. It provides an Eclipse like workbench experience for the web, built on CDI, Errai and GWT. The framework itself is completely independent of Drools&jBPM, and others can use it themselves to rapidly build their own workbench like apps.

It supports perspectives with drag and drop panels with docking, like Eclipse. Everything is a plugin, so it's very extensible. It will also define a set of interfaces and life cycles that abstracts the panels from the workbench itself. This will allow panels to be re-used in other containers - for instance the web based decision table will be re-used in Eclipse, via embedded jetty, or other 3rd party web frameworks. We have adopted the java7 nio2 virtual file system api, this allows pluggable file storage systems. We have working prototype of this with a JGit backend, which is working out very nicely.

So stay tuned :)
