Hi!
I'm trying to convert a .drl file to a .brl (Business Rule) so that we can
use the guided editor for all the rules that we have in Eclipse.
I'm following the approach described in here:
http://blog.athico.com/2008/05/accessing-guvnor-as-filesystem-webdav.html
and here
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.java.drools.user/14872
But I was wondering if there is a schema for the brl xml so that we can
validate our xml to make sure it is going to work in Guvnor.
I have done some research on tools to convert drl files to brl but haven't
found anything yet, if there is one please let me know.
In the mean time an schema for the xml that is used for business rules (brl)
files is very appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Ronald

There is no schema for BRL, and it's considered an
"internal" format, I
think it's just an xstream dump or something. The plan is to move to
ruleml, see archive for previous emails on this. Also remember not all
of DRL is supported in the guided editor.
What I'd do is look at the DrlDumper for an example of how to read in
DRL. Then just visit it and "dump" something that works with the guided
editor. If you get it to work, then submit a patch :)

once there is a complete tool-friendly XML (based on RuleML or similar) - at
that point it might be reasonable to have a tool that translates
bi-directionally between drl and the RuleML (which the guided editor could
use) - even in that case there probably would be less information in the drl
to make it GUI editor friendly (but for many cases it could be done).
If you have a specific set of DRLs that follow certain common patterns - you
could do an ad-hoc translator now - that wouldn't be hard, but as mark said
- this is an "internal" format and not documented outside of the code, so be
careful.
