UIMA Ruta on an ARM Linux Machine
Hi,
As the title suggests, my question is the following: is it possible and
if so, how can I develop a UIMA Ruta project on an ARM machine? To my
knowledge, there is no Eclipse version for ARM (or is there?). How
should I proceed?
Is there a way to run at least an already written RUTA script on a text
and get the corresponding .xmi file as output?
Relevant Info:
$ uname -a
Linux libre 3.14.0-26-ARCH #1 SMP PREEMPT Sun Jul 2 04:08:36 UTC 2017
armv7l GNU/Linux

I see.
A good way to achieve this is to use the ruta-maven-plugin (which requires that you use maven for your project...). An introduction is given in the Ruta reference guide, here : https://uima.apache.org/d/ruta-current/tools.ruta.book.html#ugr.tools.ruta.maven
Then integrate the jcasgen-maven-plugin (see https://uima.apache.org/d/uimaj-2.6.0/tools.html#ugr.tools.jcasgen.maven_plugin)
The ruta-maven-plugin will create the typesystems for all DECLAREd types in your scripts (it can also compile txt resources into twl).
jcasgen-maven-plugin will generate Java classes for all types found in the typesystems (including those built by ruta-maven-plugin). You don’t need it if you don’t want to manipulate annotation as classes from within your Java app.
I also use UimaFit to integrate the Ruta engine to my Java sources.
You can then do something like this to get your XMI files (not tested):
JCas jCas = JCasFactory.createJCas();
jCas.setDocumentText(« this is a text to be parsed »);
SimplePipeline.runPipeline(jCas,
AnalysisEngineFactory.createEngineDescription(RutaEngine.class, RutaEngine.PARAM_MAIN_SCRIPT, « my.main.script »),
AnalysisEngineFactory.createEngine(XMIWriter.class, XMIWriter.PARAM_OUTPUT, « /path/to/xmi/« ));
Hope this helps,

Hi Hugues,
So, maybe my question is the following: how can I compile UIMA and Ruta
for a project without Eclipse? Will it be easier if I already have
generated the descriptors from the scripts on Eclipse?
I assume that there is an answer to my question on
https://uima.apache.org/d/ruta-current/tools.ruta.book.html#ugr.tools.ruta.howtos
but I'd like to know if I can have further guidance on that.
Thanks for the prompt response anyway.

Hi Nikolas,
Ruta rules (and rule development) are not tied to Eclipse. Eclipse provides a very convenient tool for developing Ruta scripts through Ruta Workbench, but Ruta Workbench is not necessary for this. You can even use your favorite text editor for writing the rules. All you need is a JDK for the architecture you target, then compile UIMA and Ruta for that target.
As Ruta rules are (sort of) interpreted, it doesn’t matter if the your development environment is not the same as the runtime environment. Thus a convenient way to develop in Ruta would be to develop and test using Eclipes’ Ruta Workbench, and then run them on the ARM machine.
Best,
