In my opinion it will be much easier if you insert individual
Orders and Products
Here's a hurriedly put together example to help you think in terms
of rules (I have no experience of your problem domain so this might be laughably
wrong):-
Global ArrayList branch1;
rule "Delievery split - Branch 1"
when
$p : Product( $b : branch = "Branch
1" )
$o : Order( products contains $p )
then
OrderDelievery od = new OrderDelievery($o, $p,
$b);
insert(od);
end
rule "Consolidate delieveries"
when
$od : OrderDelievery( branch = "Branch 1"
)
then
branch1.add($od);
end
Or you could just retrieve the OrderDelievery objects from WM at
the end.
Drools can definately achieve what you want. If you can solve the
problem with hard-coded rules you can solve it with Drools.
Good luck,
Mike
alright. I was trying not to boder you.
My companie is
developing a billing software for a e-commerce site. So we have an Order
and we have to transform it into deliveries. So each Order has many products
and I have to filter it and define X deliveries(i call it 'delivery split').
There are filters like disponibility(in how many days it will be ok), brach(in
what city is the product), type(if it is a kit, ticket...),...
I
tried many ways and i really think that drools isn't the best tool for my
problem. The point is that mi boos dont want to use the hard code for
define the deliveries. He wats drolls to do everything. So i tried inserting
the the order in the WM, and using 'rom' chained with 'collect' i could
iterate and set a list based in some rules, but how can i create lists based
on the branch. how can i group in Y different lists the Z different products i
have.
I also inserted each product manually and tried to
manipulate each one. But the point is that the rules should be interdependent
but i was not able to do it.
the resume is that i want to take
the order and set N deliveries based on interdependent rules. i would like to
do almost everything with drools not using the hard code.
Sorry
for the English, thanj you very much for the help, i'm a little
lost.
