Chapter 23. KIE Server and KIE container commands in Red Hat Decision Manager Red Hat Decision Manager supports server commands that you can send to KIE Server for server-related or container-related operations, such as retrieving server information or creating or deleting a container. The full list of supported KIE Server configuration commands is located in the org.kie.server.api.commands package in your Red Hat Decision Manager instance. In the KIE Server REST API, you use the org.kie.server.api.commands commands as the request body for POST requests to http://SERVER:PORT/kie-server/services/rest/server/config . For more information about using the KIE Server REST API, see Chapter 21, KIE Server REST API for KIE containers and business assets . In the KIE Server Java client API, you use the corresponding method in the parent KieServicesClient Java client as an embedded API request in your Java application. All KIE Server commands are executed by methods provided in the Java client API, so you do not need to embed the actual KIE Server commands in your Java application. For more information about using the KIE Server Java client API, see Chapter 22, KIE Server Java client API for KIE containers and business assets . 23.1. Sample KIE Server and KIE container commands The following are sample KIE Server commands that you can use with the KIE Server REST API or Java client API for server-related or container-related operations in KIE Server: GetServerInfoCommand GetServerStateCommand CreateContainerCommand GetContainerInfoCommand ListContainersCommand CallContainerCommand DisposeContainerCommand GetScannerInfoCommand UpdateScannerCommand UpdateReleaseIdCommand For the full list of supported KIE Server configuration and management commands, see the org.kie.server.api.commands package in your Red Hat Decision Manager instance. You can run KIE Server commands individually or together as a batch REST API request or batch Java API request: Batch REST API request to create, call, and dispose a KIE container (JSON) { "commands": [ { "create-container": { "container": { "status": "STARTED", "container-id": "command-script-container", "release-id": { "version": "1.0", "group-id": "com.redhat", "artifact-id": "Project1" } } } }, { "call-container": { "payload": "{\n \"commands\" : [ {\n \"fire-all-rules\" : {\n \"max\" : -1,\n \"out-identifier\" : null\n }\n } ]\n}", "container-id": "command-script-container" } }, { "dispose-container": { "container-id": "command-script-container" } } ] } Batch Java API request to retrieve, dispose, and re-create a KIE container public void disposeAndCreateContainer() { System.out.println("== Disposing and creating containers =="); // Retrieve list of KIE containers List<KieContainerResource> kieContainers = kieServicesClient.listContainers().getResult().getContainers(); if (kieContainers.size() == 0) { System.out.println("No containers available..."); return; } // Dispose KIE container KieContainerResource container = kieContainers.get(0); String containerId = container.getContainerId(); ServiceResponse<Void> responseDispose = kieServicesClient.disposeContainer(containerId); if (responseDispose.getType() == ResponseType.FAILURE) { System.out.println("Error disposing " + containerId + ".
