drl to pkg
by Perumaal Krishnaraj
Hello Everybody,
I'm a newbie to Drools, so please excuse me, if question is very
fundamental.
I'm not using drools with eclipse or brms.
I would like to convert the drl file which I had created using a text editor
to the binary form ie. in pkg format (serialized), which can be used im my
Java application.
Is there a tool, or a code snippet which gives me an idea as to how this is
done.
Regards,
kp

functions
by Chris Richmond
Ok.I am trying to build a function library in my .drl file and I added this
one test function
function String outputString(String sData){
return sData;
}
And no matter where I place this in my .drl file, I get an exception one way
or the other with compiling when I try instaniate and fire my rules. The
.drl file works exactly as expected if I remove this function declaration,
and when I *do* try to add it, I do not actually call it anywhere.but get
those errors.
So my question is, where exactly do I need to place function declarations..
Thanks,
Chris

Re: [rules-users] Need help related to collection of data accessing in rule file.
by prasad raju sagi
Hi ,
I am trying to create rule on a fact , which contains arraylist of collection and the object in the collection internally contains an arraylist of another collection of objects.
This looks like object A contains collection of objects B and B contains collection object C
A -> blist ( Arraylist<B> )
B -> clist (ArrayList<C> )
C-> dlist( ArrayList<D>)
D-> type ( string)
I am inseting A as fact to the working memory.
I am in confusion state like how to write the rule to place conditions on collection C.
Can I use from in the form of nested from in rule statment.
Thanks

Subject: [rules-users] process order example not working fully
I am trying to execute a ruleflow and use rules to assign tasks within the ruleflow in Drools 5.0.1. I have a drl file included in my knowledge base that tries to assign a task to a user when a new human task is created. This is based on the example in org.drools.example.process.order. I can't get my code to work. I don't the rules in the example are working either (dslr for the task assignment or the drl for dynamic logging). After some attempts, I found that this condition
WorkItemNodeInstance()
does not evaluate to true ever.
Do I have to do anything special to make the WorkItemNodeInstance appear in working memory?
Thanks for any help.

Flow (human task) and web apps
by Rodrigo
Just a newbie question...
To use drools flow with human tasks in a Seam application for example, i
will need to start a mina server in another thread (and interact by a mina
client), like documentation suggest?
Anyone have a sample web app that use this approach, drools flow + human
task + webapps.
Thanks in advance.

Conversion from Normal Decision Tables to Web-Based Tables and vice-versa
by Vikrant Yagnick
Hi All,
I am wondering if anyone has had a requirement where they would need to convert their normal decision tables into web-based decision tables(or vice-versa).
If someone has already done this, can they share either some code or pointers to how this can be done? (I guess it will involving parsing the Excel and creating the XML for the decision table).
Will this be a useful feature to have?
Cheers,
Vikrant

loading rules dynamically
by techy
Hi,
If the rules,conditions,consequences have to loaded from the database. I
can think of following two approach. what would be right approach( I will
have upto 1200 rules in the db)
1. Programmatically inject the rules into rule engine using drools API.
2. Read the rules from the database and create drl or dsl file for them and
inject into rule engine.
Thanks

Problem with JPA session persistence in Drools Flow (5.0.1)
by Alan.Gairey＠tessella.com
I'm currently using Drools Flow with JPA session persistence enabled as
described in section 5.1 of the User Guide.
As a process executes, session information is saved to the H2 database
correctly.
The problem comes if a process only executes part way through, and I then
try to finish the process by recreating a session using the code:
// recreate the session from database using the sessionId
ksession = JPAKnowledgeService.loadStatefulKnowledgeSession( sessionId,
kbase, null, env );
This gives me a NullPointerException.
Having looked into the Drools Flow source code, I think the problem is in
the class
drools-persistence-jpa\src\main\java\org\drools\persistence\session\SingleSessionCommandService.java.
The 4th constructor of this class is called as part of the loading of a
knowledge session from the H2 database; this in turn leads to the
afterCompletion method of the inner class SynchronizationImpl being
called. The final two lines of this method are:
((JPAProcessInstanceManager) ((ReteooWorkingMemory)
session).getProcessInstanceManager()).clearProcessInstances();
((JPAWorkItemManager) ((ReteooWorkingMemory)
session).getWorkItemManager()).clearWorkItems();
However, when called via the route described above, the session member
variable of SingleSessionCommandService has not been set, thus causing the
NullPointerException.
(Interestingly, running the unit tests for drools-persistence-jpa does
result in the NullPointerException being thrown multiple times, although
the tests are still listed as having passed.)
I believe enclosing the above two lines as follows will fix the problem:
if (session != null) {
((JPAProcessInstanceManager) ((ReteooWorkingMemory)
session).getProcessInstanceManager()).clearProcessInstances();
((JPAWorkItemManager) ((ReteooWorkingMemory)
session).getWorkItemManager()).clearWorkItems();
}
Also, in the 4th constructor of SingleSessionCommandService, after the
session has been set, the following line needs to be added to ensure the
session id is the same as the session info id:
((ReteooStatefulSession) this.session).setId( this.sessionInfo.getId() );
(This line is present at the end of the 3rd constructor.)
It would be great if this fix could make it into the Drools 5.1 release.
Thanks.

OSGI, classloading, and imports in KnowledgeBuilder
by msully
So I'm playing with Drools in Equinox OSGi, and so far it's behaving quite
nicely - one bit of weirdness though.
What I'm trying to do:
I have a bundle with a 'flow manager' that listens for instances of
WorkItemHandler in the service broker (well, really my own subinterface that
has a getName method). It also listens for new bundles with a
META-INF/drools directory with *.rf files in them, and parses the .rf files
it finds there.
The Flow Manager is itself published as an OSGI Service with a 'perform'
method. It encapsulates all of its Drools calls within the perform method
though - they aren't exposed to clients.
My test involves a simple start->work item->end workflow.
I pass in an instance of a class "Tablex" that can be saved to hibernate. I
also pass in a String that has the table name, and an empty List to get the
results.
My .rf file tries to import Tablex. It declares the three values I mention
above, and maps them to the work item in the work item definition.
<p>
<imports>
<import name="my.pkg.Tablex" />
</imports>
...
<variable name="my.pkg.newrecord" >
<type
name="org.drools.process.core.datatype.impl.type.ObjectDataType"
className="my.pkg.Tablex"/>
</variable>
...
<workItem id="2" name="DBWorkItem" x="165" y="374" width="80"
height="40" >
<work name="DBWorkItem" >
</work>
<mapping type="in" from="my.pkg.tablename" to="my.pkg.tablename" />
<mapping type="in" from="my.pkg.newrecord" to="my.pkg.newrecord"/>
<mapping type="in" from="my.pkg.outlist" to="my.pkg.outlist"/>
</workItem>
</p>
In my manifest for my .rf file and for the flow manager (where the parsing
occurs) I Import-Package Tablex's package.
When my flow manager tries parsing the rule, it gives an error saying the
the import failed. BUT, everything still works, and my WorkItemHandler works
correctly (the WorkItemHandler imports Tablex itself, since it needs to
manipulate it).
If I declare my Tablex variable as a java.util.Object in the ruleflow then I
don't get the error and things also still work.
If I declare my Tablex as Tablex in the rule flow AND import it in the class
that does the parsing (it's already 'OSGI' imported to the parsing bundle,
but now I'm doing a plain old Java import on it) then everything works fine
with no error message.
Kind of a hybrid question but I figured I'd start with the Drools folks.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Mike

Drools and Clojure (maps as facts)
by André Thieme
Hello group!
I am a Clojure user and would like to look into using Drools with it.
From Clojure I can use all Java classes and call all methods. So,
instantiating a KnowledgeBase, KnowledgePackages or a KBFactory is no
problem, and calling the respective methods, to get the system started,
or insert facts into a session, dispose it and fireAllRules is also
fine.
It is just that in Clojure one typically does not use POJOs.
The most typical data structures used are: hashmaps, vectors, structs,
lists, structuremaps and sets (in no particular order).
Those are persistent and "concurrency ready" Clojure DSs, and btw, also
usable from Java directly.
Now the basic Drools examples I saw all work with POJOs.
They were mostly comparisons of native typed fields in a class.
I however would be interested to compare different qualities of key/
value pairs in a hashmap, or compare structs with each other.
Comparing structuremaps is maybe what comes closest to the POJO examples.
For example, we may have a struct (defstruct person :name :age :type)
and store it's instances in a vector. And we would also insert it into
our Drools session object:
(doseq [p all-persons] (.insert session p))
which would correspond roughly to
for (Person p : allPersons) { session.insert(p); }
Only that "person" is a map, not a class.
Well, of course it is also an object and under the hood a class, a
java.util.Map even - but I mean that unlike POJOs the key/value pairs
are stored differently (fields in classes are also just key/value pairs).
So, is there a way to insert maps (let it be java.util.HashMaps for
example) and also to reason about them? I won't care if the syntax
for that is complicated. As Clojure is a Lisp I would just write a
little macro and have a very nice and readable syntax (probably a bit
similar to the one of Jess or Lisa).
Instead of looking at all instances of the type Person AND then have
their age compared, I would look at all maps/structs which have a key
:type with the value :person AND then compare the value of their :age
key with a number, such as:
(rule "example person rule, matching non-adults"
:when (= :type :person)
(< :age 18)
:then
(println "No service for minors."))
In Java terms it would mean that we insert several instances of
java.util.HashMap, all having the k/v pairs for name, age and type.
HashMap<String, Object> hm = new HashMap<String, Object>();
hm.put("name", someName);
hm.put("age", someAge);
hm.put("type", "person");
session.insert(hm);
Is that in principle possible with Drools 5?
Sunny greetings,
André
