kie maven plugin fails to build kjar if kmodule contains a ruleTemplate ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Key: DROOLS-3198 URL: https://issues.jboss.org/browse/DROOLS-3198 Project: Drools Issue Type: Bug Components: tools Affects Versions: 7.8.0.Final Reporter: Webster Homer Assignee: Luca Molteni Priority: Major If I have a maven pom that uses the kie maven plugin org.kie:kie-maven-plugin to build the kljar for deployment, and the project kjar has a ruleTemplate: <ruleTemplate dtable="rules/business/TermSearchQFRules.xls" template="rules/business/templates/TermSearchQF.drt" row="2" col="1"/> The build will fail with an error: ERROR] Failed to execute goal org.kie:kie-maven-plugin:7.8.0.Final:build (default-build) on project ba-search-kjar: Execution default-build of goal org.kie:kie-maven-plugin:7.8.0.Final:build failed: No RuleTable cells in spreadsheet. -> [Help 1] org.apache.maven.lifecycle.LifecycleExecutionException: Failed to execute goal org.kie:kie-maven-plugin:7.8.0.Final:build (default-build) on project ba-search-kjar: Execution default-build of goal org.kie:kie-maven-plugin:7.8.0.Final:build failed: No RuleTable cells in spreadsheet. Caused by: org.apache.maven.plugin.PluginExecutionException: Execution default-build of goal org.kie:kie-maven-plugin:7.8.0.Final:build failed: No RuleTable cells in spreadsheet. at org.apache.maven.plugin.DefaultBuildPluginManager.executeMojo(DefaultBuildPluginManager.java:110) at org.apache.maven.lifecycle.internal.MojoExecutor.execute(MojoExecutor.java:209) ... 19 more Caused by: org.drools.template.parser.DecisionTableParseException: No RuleTable cells in spreadsheet. This is because the plugin doesn't understand the rule template, and treats the xls file as a decision table spreadsheet rather than a template spreadsheet. The kie-maven-plugin is a useful tool that compiles the kjar are build time rather than load time, and gives good diagnostics.
