Re: [rules-users] Drools with Guvnor

With the new KnowledgeAgent API, you can not only connect to Guvnor server remotely to store and retrieve rules, but also to add or update rules. It also has basic authentication supported. Take a look at the unit test: http://anonsvn.jboss.org/repos/labs/labs/jbossrules/trunk/drools-compiler... Below is a very simple test case that connects to Guvnor to retrieve a rule package, build a KnowledgeSession, then fire rules: public void testBasicAuthentication() throws Exception { String xml = ""; xml += "<change-set xmlns='http://drools.org/drools-5.0/change-set'"; xml += " xmlns:xs='http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance'"; xml += " xs:schemaLocation='http://drools.org/drools-5.0/change-set drools-change-set-5.0.xsd' >"; xml += " <add> "; xml += " <resource source='http://localhost:8081/drools-guvnor/org.drools.guvnor.Guvnor/package/mortgages/LATEST' type='PKG' basicAuthentication='enabled' username='admin' password='admin'/>"; xml += " </add> "; xml += "</change-set>"; File fxml = fileManager.newFile("changeset.xml"); Writer output = new BufferedWriter(new FileWriter(fxml)); output.write(xml); output.close(); KnowledgeBase kbase = KnowledgeBaseFactory.newKnowledgeBase(); ResourceChangeScannerConfiguration sconf = ResourceFactory .getResourceChangeScannerService() .newResourceChangeScannerConfiguration(); sconf.setProperty("drools.resource.scanner.interval", "2"); ResourceFactory.getResourceChangeScannerService().configure(sconf); KnowledgeAgentConfiguration aconf = KnowledgeAgentFactory .newKnowledgeAgentConfiguration(); aconf.setProperty("drools.agent.scanDirectories", "true"); aconf.setProperty("drools.agent.scanResources", "true"); aconf.setProperty("drools.agent.newInstance", "true"); KnowledgeAgent kagent = KnowledgeAgentFactory.newKnowledgeAgent( "test agent", kbase, aconf); kagent.applyChangeSet(ResourceFactory.newUrlResource(fxml.toURI() .toURL())); StatefulKnowledgeSession ksession = kagent.getKnowledgeBase() .newStatefulKnowledgeSession(); List<String> list = new ArrayList<String>(); ksession.setGlobal("list", list); ksession.fireAllRules(); ksession.dispose(); assertEquals(2, list.size()); assertTrue(list.contains("rule1")); assertTrue(list.contains("rule2")); } Hope this helps, Jervis Michael Rhoden wrote:
