Re: [rules-users] Merge repository in Guvnor and editing brl with eclipse plugin

Hi, My understanding is that there is no way to import/export sections of the repository in the manner that you describe. One way that you could achieve a similar outcome is to use the WebDAV interface that Guvnor provides. You can access the exposed files on instance 1 and then copy them to instance 2; Guvnor will load those files into the repository. Please note that not all functionality of Guvnor is available through WebDAV! I'm trying to be politically correct in my response here, but many people, including myself, have found it frustrating that the metadata attached to rules in Guvnor is not available via WebDAV or REST. My understanding is that even the Eclipse plugin uses the WebDAV interface, but my information on that could be outdated or incorrect. I unfortunately have no advice on the Eclipse issue.

There is an import/export function in the administration part of guvnor but it export all the repository and when import a repository, it's erasing all before importing. What i would like to be able to do is : i have a package with rules, functions, enum, dsl, test scenarios... under an instance of guvnor and i have another package under another instance and i would like to import the second package to the other instance of guvnor without erasing the existing repository. Is it a way to do this? i can't find it. maybe with the eclipse plugin? I don't want to import from a drl file because i would loose the graphical part (use of dsl, enum...). My second question is that i try to use the guvnor plugin for eclipse to manage rules in the guvnor repository. I can access to it and read/modify all but i can't modify the ".brl" files, i get for all the files this message : "Could not open the editor: An unexpected exception was thrown.
