Extended event bus

Extended event bus

The extended event bus converts Eclipse SmartHome events into custom events. This is needed by the Drools integration because Drools uses objects, whereas Eclipse SmartHome events use the name of the item to identify the item. The custom events are based on the original Eclipse SmartHome events, however, they use the item object instead of the name of the item.

Helper classes on the event bus for Drools resource loading

    public List<DrlConfiguration> getDrls();

    public List<RuleTemplateConfiguration> getRuleTemplates();
}

public class DrlConfiguration {
	protected final InputStream drl;
	protected final String path;
	// ... Constructor + getters
}
