Resolution: Rejected
I'm rejecting this, not because it's invalid, but because we are working on a
solution for this for 5.0.
Allow BRMS to store graphical .rf file version of a ruleflow under
version control
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: JBRULES-1579
URL:
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBRULES-1579
Project: JBoss Drools
Issue Type: Feature Request
Security Level: Public(Everyone can see)
Components: drools-brms
Affects Versions: 4.0.4
Environment: n/a
Reporter: Shahad Ahmed
Assigned To: Mark Proctor
Would it be possible to allow the BRMS to use the graphical (.rf) versions of a ruleflow
file, as well as the non-graphical .rfm version? I believe the .rf file contains all the
details in a .rfm file, but also includes graphical data about the node positions etc.
Even if this were not possible, would it be possible to allow the .rf version of a rule
flow to be simply stored alongside the .rfm version in the BRMS repository so that they
can both be put under version control.
The reason I ask is that the current situation means that the .rf (graphical) files are
the one thing in a rules project that have to be stored and versioned external to the
BRMS. Consequently, whenever you want to change your ruleflow you have to go and find the
.rf file that you stored out with the BRMS and hope it is the correct version etc. With
either of the two changes proposed above, then at least the BRMS repository holds and
versions all the important parts of a rules package, and the user can always download the
correct .rf file and edit it in eclipse.
I suppose the ultimate solution would be the ability to edit ruleflows within the BRMS
(as requested in JBRULES-851) so that this feature request is not needed, but until then
this request would help with version controlling and modifying graphical ruleflows and
bring all the important parts of a rule package under the control of the BRMS repository.
