RE: [rules-users] conversion of .pkg file to other formats

Rick, We had the same issue/concern and chose to pass the drl to our engine. We bypass the default BRMS deployer and created a custom servlet to return the drl. Here is some logic that will generate the drl. PACKAGE_UUID = uuid of your package REPOSITORY_SERVICE = "org.drools.brms.client.rpc.RepositoryService"; ServiceImplementation imp = (ServiceImplementation)Component.getInstance( RulesManagementConstants.REPOSITORY_SERVICE ); String responsePayload = imp.buildPackageSource( RulesManagementConstants.PACKAGE_UUID); As a warning though, you may run into upgrade issues since you are entering the non-supported api.

I'm using Drools for a project at work. I'm investigating the feasibility of using the BRMS in our environment. I have a question about the binary packages that are available for download from the BRMS. Given one of these .pkg files, is there an easy API call that would get me a text string representing the .drl file equivalent of the .pkg file? I realize that I can use the 'Show package source' from the BRMS. However, if we decide to go with .pkg files for deployment, it would be really nice to be able to get a human-readable form of what was last deployed to production for any given .pkg for auditing / troubleshooting purposes. I perused the docs, and I found something similar to what I want, but it seems to be specific to decision tables. Not really a Package is trimmed down for transport. For instance the text representation of the consequence is gone, it's just bytecode now. You could intheory make a reverse engineering utility, like you can already do for bytecode, but we have nothing like this now.
