any roadmap for Guvnor REST interface?

missedone May 8, 2011 3:24 AM

hi, folks

do you have any roadmap for Guvnor REST interface?

i read the discussion here:

[INCOMPLETE GUVNOR REST APIS|https://issues.jboss.org/browse/GUVNOR-1080]
[AtomPub interface for Guvnor|http://community.jboss.org/wiki/AtomPubinterfaceforGuvnor]

and also checked out the source code from [github|https://github.com/droolsjbpm/guvnor], 
seems that, the Guvnor REST API still incomplete
we can use the REST API create/update/delete package, create/update/delete asset
but we still cannot *compile* the package into binary
is that correct?

can anybody give the information about the missing REST features?

thanks:)

Nick

Hi Nick,

I hope you saw this reference too: http://guvtalk.blogspot.com/2011/03/atompub-interface-for-guvnor.html, where Andrew describes his contribution, but you are right that there is no support to compile packages through this API. From a Governance perspective I would argue that this does not belong in a Governance tool either. However the drools functionality has crossed to line into IDE territory, So from that perspective it may make sense to support it. If you can elaborate on your use case, then maybe we can find a way to put it on the roadmap.

Cheers,

Thanks, Kurt

our project is in the initial phase, that we are doing some investigation

you know, we are thinking about the automate delivery and testing, for example, use ant, or maven
a general case is that:
compile project source code
create package on guvnor if need
delete old bpmn file from remote guvnor repository if need
deploy new bpmn file into remote guvnor repository
compile the package on guvnor

steps 1 ~ 4 are OK, i think, since there are REST APIs for them
but for step 5, seems it's not feasible at present

any suggestion?
thanks:)

http://server:port/guvnor-webapp/actions/compile-package

wouldn't that be what you are asking for?

All right, we've come full circle . The easy answer is no there is no timeline for it.. Next best thing to do it file a jira feature request for it (and provide a patch!).
