Time has run into the dreaded tab problem. Or at least the OS type such as Unix, that you are working on. However, this also means that you limit yourself to the OS, This means that youĬan easily extend these tools by using or writing any program for the OS that They evaluate a set of dependencies and thenĮxecute commands not unlike what you would issue on a shell.
Others? Because all of those tools have limitations that its original authorĬouldn't live with when developing software across multiple platforms. Why another build tool when there is already make, gnumake, nmake, jam, and In theory it is kind of like make without Kuiper ( Conor MacNeill ( Stefano Mazzocchi ( Sam Ruby ( Nico Seessle ( Roger Vaughn ( Dave Walend ( 1.2 - 9Īnt is a Java based build tool.
Now refer to How-To to learn how to write an Ant Build File and execute it to accomplish the goal. Also, you must specify the version with minor and major versions. You are now ready to play with Ant Tasks.īefore you proceed with automation, note that the name of Jar, RuleApp and Ruleset is case sensitive. If you haven’t installed JDK separately, nothing to worry since you will find default JDK at /ODM/jdk which has been installed as part of ODM. To do so, follow the procedure described in this article: Setting up your environment to automate processes.įor Ant Tasks, we must have JDK installed. To use Ant Tasks, we first must setup our environment. Read here in detail about the Ant Task, its arguments and possible values of the arguments. The signature of synchronize Ant Task is: Thus, we can create our Ant Build file where we would be defining two targets one to download our project from source Decision Center and another to publish the same to destination Decision Center. It was quite a big file and thus I extracted only what we need and modified to do our task of migration.īasically, synchronize Ant Task performs three actions publish, retrieve and disconnect. It took a good amount of time to find the exact place of this Ant Task and its build file. However, no clue has been provided where to find the Ant Task since nothing has been mentioned where we can find build xml. Are these rules available in Decision Center of Production? Don’t know about other rule developers but I always wanted to automate this synchronization.Īs per Synchronizing by using Ant tasks topic of IBM Knowledge Center, there is an Ant Task namely synchronize available which automate synchronization with Decision Center. The business user updates rules in Staging environment and then move the changes to Production once tested thoroughly in Stage.
How do we sync decision centers on multiple environments when our Decision Center plays the role of a source code controller?įor instance, a policy needs to be modified as per business trend.
A business user will always update the rules on Decision Center or Business Console if decision governance is used. We often have multiple environments to work upon business rules. It is a Java-based build tool from Apache to automate a build and deployment process that can be executed from command-line.
