There may be better ways of doing it in newer versions of Guvnor, but the way I
did it for for 5.3 made use of Spring. Unfortunately, this did not work in 5.5.
Your code will need to do all of its database connectivity itself. Therefore it
does need to include the DB connectivity jars. I ensured that this was as easy
as possible by using the Maven Shade plugin to build a jar which contained all
of my dependencies. If your connection details are in a properties file, then
it’s easy enough to reference that outside the application Jar.
The code below is extracted from an application I wrote to do this using
Spring. Possibly if you are using Seam throughout your application then as long
as you are using the same version that Guvnor is built upon, then it might be
easier.
public List<String> isoCodes() {
List<String> values = new ArrayList<String>();
for (Currency ccy : finder().findCurrencies()) {
values.add(ccy.getISO());
}
Collections.sort(values);
return values;
}
private static CurrencyFinder finder() {
return (CurrencyFinder)
GuvnorEnumContext.getContext().getBean("currencyFinder");
}
/**
* Maintains a static reference to a Spring {@link ApplicationContext}, and a
* static getContext() method, which will initialize the context if necessary.
*/
public class GuvnorEnumContext {
private static ApplicationContext ctx = null;
GuvnorEnumContext() {
}
GuvnorEnumContext(ApplicationContext applicationContext) {
ctx = applicationContext;
}
public static ApplicationContext getContext() {
if (ctx == null) {
ctx = new
AnnotationConfigApplicationContext(GuvnorEnumConfig.class);
}
return ctx;
}
}
/**
* This configuration class is used by the Guvnor enumeration services to set up
* annotation-based injection of beans throughout the application.
*/
@EnableSpringConfigured
@Configuration
@ComponentScan("com.yourcompany")
public class GuvnorEnumConfig {
}
