Re: [rules-dev] Drools Flow and Seam Integration

Hello Raphael, please add your comments and suggestions to https://jira.jboss.org/jira/browse/JBSEAM-4260 as those are great inputs to have. Currently we have a separate branch for Drools5 integration (http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/seam/branches/community/Seam_2_2_Drools5/) which will be soon merged into Seam3 trunk and then the work on 299 Beans can start :) So far, as Edson mentioned, we have added new Seam components which can be configured through components.xml. To show some examples: a) creating a KnowledgeBase: <drools:knowledge-base name="kbase" knowledge-builder-config="kbuilderconfig.properties" knowledge-base-config="kbaseconfig.properties"> <drools:rule-resources> <value>classpath;numberguess.drl;DRL</value> </drools:rule-resources> <drools:event-listeners> <value>org.drools.event.knowledgebase.DefaultKnowledgeBaseEventListener</value> </drools:event-listeners> </drools:knowledge-base> a.2) creating a KnowledgeBase from a template and template data: <drools:knowledge-base name="kbase4" knowledge-builder-config="kbuilderconfig.properties" knowledge-base-config="kbaseconfig.properties"> <drools:rule-resources> <value>classpath;testtemplate.drl;DRL;testTemplateDataProvider</value> </drools:rule-resources> </drools:knowledge-base> b) creating a KnowledgeAgent: <drools:knowledge-agent name="kagent" agent-name="myAgent" scan-resources="true" scan-directories="false" monitor-change-set-events="true" scan-interval="30"> <drools:change-sets> <value>classpath;numberguesschangeset.xml</value> </drools:change-sets> </drools:knowledge-agent> c) creating a StatefulKnowledgeSession (similar for stateless): <drools:stateful-knowledge-session name="ksession" knowledge-base="#{kbase}" knowledge-session-config="ksessionconfig.properties" fact-provider="#{testFactProvider}" audit-log="/home/tsurdilo/Desktop/ksession3"> <drools:event-listeners> <value>org.drools.event.rule.DebugAgendaEventListener</value> <value>org.drools.event.rule.DebugWorkingMemoryEventListener</value> </drools:event-listeners> </drools:stateful-knowledge-session> d) creating batch execution results: <drools:batch-execution name="batch1" ksession="#{ksession}" batch-xml-config="testbatch.xml"/> e) creating query results for a query name: <drools:query-results name="queries1" ksession="#{ksession3}" query-names="number_of_messages"/> There is a number of new things we will be adding such as better flow integration (with annotations as you mentioned) as well as a possible alternative for pageflow using flow. I will start blogging about this on seamframework.org as soon we have the code moved to a Seam3 branch. Keep the ideas coming and thanks for any comments :) Thanks. Tihomir Edson Tirelli wrote:
