Re: [rules-users] Drools 6.0.1 Workbench - How to import existing drl files?
Sure. GIT is a version control system and is the repository implementation the workbench has by default. Simply put much like any VCS you can push/commit changes to it. Whether the changes are made within the workbench (as would be the normal case for most users) or whether you have a link to the VCS from another tool; does not matter. Within Eclipse you should be able to clone the GIT repository (think take a copy for local use) behind the workbench (using the EGIT plugin). If you use the SSH protocol (e.g. git clone ssh://admin@server/repository) you will be able to push changes made in Eclipse back to the workbench (you could use HTTP, but you won't be able to push changes back). If this sounds like mumbo-jumbo, please read a bit more about GIT. With kind regards, Mike On 4 March 2014 23:18, mattmadhavan mmadha...@facs.org wrote: Hi Manstis, Thank very much for your reply!

Re: [rules-users] Drools 6.0.1 Workbench - How to import existing drl files?
HI Mantis, I think I am getting it! You pretty much want me to export clone my existing maven project in Eclipse IDE to a GIT repo and suck it in to the Drools WorkBench. I have limited experience in GIT. I can do it, But can you please confirm if this is what you meant? Also one more question for you later! How do I keep them all in sync? I save my projects in SVN and the workbench use Git. I guess its for another discussion thread.

Re: [rules-users] Drools 6.0.1 Workbench - How to import existing drl files?
Ok, if I understand correctly you keep your rules in SVN, maintain them in Eclipse and want them in the workbench too? If this is correct then things are a little more tricky. As far as I recall Eclipse will not allow you to associate an Eclipse project with multiple VCSs. At the moment I suspect you have it configured to use SVN. You can therefore fetch the latest from SVN, modify as needed and commit back to SVN. You have two choices to get the rules, from SVN, into the workbench:- (1) Create a new (git) repository in the workbench, clone it to a folder somewhere and then manually copy rules into the /src/main/resources/whatever/package/needed folder before committing and pushing back to the workbench (git) repository. (2) Create a git repository in a folder somewhere, manually copy rules into /src/main/resources/whatever/package/needed and add this git repository to the workbench. You should read the section in the User Guide about repositories. You will also need to become familar with git. You could alternatively choose to keep your source code in git (and not use SVN) however I appreciate this may not be viable. Things would be more simple for you. Whilst you use two VCSs (SVN and GIT, as required by the workbench) there is little you can do to avoid the manual process (although this could obviously be scripted and automated).

Re: [rules-users] Drools 6.0.1 Workbench - How to import existing drl files?
HI Mantist, I think I am really confused now. I have a working Drools 5.4 application (5.6 has issues with Custom operators) in eclipse. I am able to Unit test my rules. I want to use either Guvnor or the workbench so that my analysts can author/test their rules. Can I import an existing Eclipse application into Guvnor/Workbench? If Git is my only option - do I need to instal a Git Server in my machine? I just want a GUI environment for my analysts to write rules, test it. What are my options?

Re: [rules-users] Drools 6.0.1 Workbench - How to import existing drl files?
I understand import means that you already have a repository and a project setup inside Workbench, right? If so.. the simplest solution would be using external ssh based git access to the repository, place files in the proper place, commit and them push. Workbench will be automatically notified of your new files and your project explorer will have all your new files.

HI Alexandre, Sorry to say I do not have anything set up. I have a .drl file with about 60 rules and couple of Jar file off my Eclipse. I want to import the drl file and the jars into the work bench inside a project. I want to set it up such that the analysts can write additional rules and be able to document and test the rules within the workbench. Any ideas please? And have you had any luck in testing your own custom operators with in the Work bench? Thanks in advance!

Re: [rules-users] Drools 6.0.1 Workbench - How to import existing drl files?
Hi Matt, So you'll have to create a new repo and create a new project (check docs). If your dependencies are already mavenized, add those dependencies to your project, if not... you can upload your jars (check docs) and Workbench will prompt for GAV info for each lib. After that you can clone using ssh git, add your rules (that should be places in proper resource folder - in doubt checkout demo), and push your changes back. After that you'll have your project with your project setup as expected. (regarding custom operators, sorry I don't have such experience) Regards, --- Alexandre Porcelli Principal Software Engineer Red Hat Business Systems and Intelligence Group On Mar 4, 2014, at 3:42 PM, mattmadhavan mmadha...@facs.org wrote: HI Alexandre, Sorry to say I do not have anything set up.

Re: [rules-users] Drools 6.0.1 Workbench - How to import existing drl files?
1) When you upload a JAR to the workbench's maven repository you will be prompted for Group ID, Artifact ID and version; as required by maven, if the JAR does not already have a pom. 2) In order to manipulate a project outside of the workbench (I.e. add your rule files) you will need to clone it with the ssh protocol. The workbench will display the url in the Administration perspective. 3) If you downloaded the drools workbench distribution from the drools download page it contains a zip with examples. Drools workbench 6.0 is based upon maven standards and a git repository. If you are unfamiliar with these please read up on them. I would also urge you to run the workbench, read the user guide and familiarise yourself with its operation.
