I am trying to create a implementation to plan a tournament schedule per round. Als called bracket Tournament.

I am trying to use OptaPlanner for this, but the documentation is not that clear to me.

I have the following classes:

Player
Table
Matchup (containing: 2 players and a table) This is my planningEntity
Round (containing: a list of matches, a list of players, a list of tables, a list of previous matchups) This is my planningSolution)
Schedule (containing: a list of rounds)

What I want out of this, is at least for 1 round a list of matchups from this info.

What I do not get is how to configure my rules in drools.

For example: how do I configure a rule that simply states: a machup contains two players that are not the same player. Another one is: a matchup contains two players that have not played against each other Finally: a table is available for exactly one matchup.

It feels not that complicated, but the documentation (including samples) are just not enough to get there.

Have you looked at the Tennis scheduling example (including it's video) and the Traveling Tournament Problem (TTP) example? – Geoffrey De Smet Mar 18 '14 at 07:58
I will see what the video will get me :) but that I have not seen yet. – Jaavaaan Mar 28 '14 at 10:23
Thanx. my project is running now. Only now my rules do not give me the result I am expecting. I have posted a new question about this. – Jaavaaan Nov 03 '14 at 12:44
