[rules-users] Adding multi-select listbox to Guvnor for entering array of values in 'IN' condition

2012-09-12 Thread Ken Archer
To author LHS conditions that use an array of values, like IN or NOT IN,
Guvnor requires entry of a comma-delimited list of values in a textbox.  

I would sure like to provide the same type of db-enabled list box for
selecting multiple values that Guvnor supports for selecting single values. 
However, I can't seem to find a way to do this.  Any thoughts?

Ken

[rules-users] Error when Loading New KnowledgeBuilder

2010-05-18 Thread Ken Archer
I just built installed the Drools Eclipse plug-in on a new development machine, 
and now whenever I load a new KnowledgeBuilder (KnowledgeBuilder kbuilder = 
KnowledgeBuilderFactory.newKnowledgeBuilder();), the source of 
PackageBuilderConfiguration.class loads in a new tab with the following lines 
before the code:

Class File Editor
Source not found
The JAR of this class file belongs to container 'Drools Library' which does not 
allow modifications to source attachments on its entries.

The default 5.0.1 Drools Runtime jars are in the Drools Library path, just like 
on my previous development machine. Any thoughts?

[rules-users] DRLParser not parsing collections

2009-11-04 Thread Ken Archer

I have successfully used DRLParser with several DRL files, except when they 
include the 'contains' syntax.  My code for parsing DRL and then dumping into 
XML, is below:

public class DroolsDumper {

public static final void main(String[] args) throws DroolsParserException {
DrlParser parser = new DrlParser();
PackageDescr descr = parser.parse(new 
InputStreamReader(DroolsDumper.class.getResourceAsStream("/source.drl" )));

// Dump to xml rule.
XmlDumper dumper = new XmlDumper();
String result = dumper.dump(descr);
System.out.println(result); 
}}

This code returns the following error when the DRL includes 'contains' syntax:

Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NullPointerException
at org.drools.xml.XmlDumper.visitPackageDescr(XmlDumper.java:224)
at org.drools.xml.XmlDumper.dump(XmlDumper.java:71)
at com.sample.DroolsDumper.main(DroolsDumper.java:19)

This code works fine with the following DRL (whether I dump the parsed DRL into 
XML or back into DRL):

rule 'cart rule'
dialect "mvel"
when
Cart ()
then
System.out.println("Hello World");
end 

But it returns the above error when the same DRL includes 'contains':

rule 'cart rule'

dialect "mvel"

when

Cart (skus contains (123))

then

System.out.println("Hello World");

end 

The DRL works fine in test scenarios and my cart class's array is declared 
simply as follows:

package shopping;
import java.util.ArrayList;
public class Cart {
public ArrayList skus = new ArrayList();
public ArrayList getSkus() {
return skus;
}
public void setSkus(ArrayList skus) {
this.skus = skus;
}
}

[rules-users] Collections of Collections

2009-10-22 Thread Ken Archer

There are certain domains where a collection of objects is itself a member of a 
different collection of objects (e.g. zips in counties in states, persons in 
cars at intersections).  In these domains, it would be helpful to create LHS 
conditions on the individual members of the "subcollection".  An very 
hypothetical example of a rule that send direct mail to wealthy zip codes in 
counties with dealers in states where a business is licensed.

WHEN
$ServiceableState: State (LicensedInState=True)
$CountiesWithDealers: County (DealersInCounty>0) from $ServiceableState.counties
$WealthyZips: Zip (AvgIncome>$100,000) from $CountiesWithDealers.zips  //2nd 
from not allowed
THEN
$WealthyZips.SendDirectMail ()

I know Collect and Accumulate support nested From keywords, but can you nest 
From keywords themselves to handle collections of collections?

[rules-users] Matching 2 Arrays

2009-09-28 Thread Ken Archer

To create a condition to check if any value within an array of a fact matches 
any value within an array of values in a rule, the only only approach that 
seems to work is: WHEN ( CONTAINS  ||  CONTAINS 
 || ...)

Is there a more straightforward and elegant approach this type of matching?

[rules-users] Authoring Rules in non-JVM Client Apps

2009-09-25 Thread Ken Archer

The http/xml/json interface provided by drools-server for remote execution of 
rules from non-JVM apps is wonderful.  Is there a similar interface for 
importing rules authored in non-JVM client apps as xml or drl files?  I have 
not been able to find one.  Thanks in advance.

[rules-users] Templates Documented as Experimental from Community, not from Red Hat

2009-08-04 Thread Ken Archer

The jboss.org documentation describes rule templates as "an experimental 
feature. In particular, the API is
subject to change".  However, the Red Hat documentation does not caveat rule 
templates as "experimental" in any way.  Are templates (which are available in 
other BRMSs) no longer considered "experimental"?  Thanks so much.

Re: [rules-users] How to Enrich Facts with Data from a Database

2009-07-30 Thread Ken Archer

Earnie,

Thanks for this.  Do your two solutions to fact enrichment presume use of the 
Hibernate framework to interact with a database in the rules? Would an example 
of your first solution be the following?

when
$w : WMFact($key : id)
$d : DatabaseFact(parentKey == $key)
then
$w.Field1=$d.Field1 AND $w.Field2=$d.Field2 AND $w.Field3=$d.Field3

One way is to extend the original classes and add the desired attributes, then 
insert the extended class into WorkingMemory. You could then use RHS to modify 
matched facts. Another way is to inject "related" facts. So your LHS matches a 
fact and you insert a new "related" fact in the RHS. Rules that must evaluate 
data from both facts can the do something like this:

when
$b : BaseFact($key : id)
$r : RelatedFact(parentKey == $key)
then
...

I have used both albeit on small sets of facts and both worked fine.

Earnie!

I would like to append values to facts in working memory with
values from a database before rules processing.  The Fusion documentation
says, “one of the most common use cases for rules is event data enrichment”,
but no documentation seems to explain how this is done whether we’re talking
about events or just plain old facts.  And the RHS syntax seems to be
limited to working with data already in working memory.  How can I enrich
facts with data from another system?  Thanks in advance.
