Adding rules dynamically into drools engine

I have a standalone java application which will interact with my web application running on node. I am trying to add new rules dynamically through web UI. So far I am unable to figure it out, how to create and add rules. Any suggestions for the right direction would be helpful

you can add multiple Compiled rule DRL files like 
knowledgebuilder.add(new ByteArrayResource(compiledDRL.getBytes()),ResourceType.DRL);


Get all the knowledgePackages and fire the all rules 

knowledgeBase kbase = knowledgeBaseFactory.newKnowledgeBase();
kbase.addknowledgePackages(knowledgeBuilder.getKnowledgePackages());

knowledgeSession ksession = kbase.newStatefullKnowledgeSession();
ksession.insert(inputObject);
ksession.fireAllRules();
ksession.dispose();

This is basically a duplicate of https://stackoverflow.com/questions/25036973 so the following is basically a duplicate of my answer to that question...

It's probably best to just look at the Drools examples source code. For instance the KieFileSystem example shows how to create a rule from a String and launch a session which includes it.

The essentials are that you create a KieServices, which contains a virtual file system. You then add rules to that file system. A little bit like the following:

KieServices ks = KieServices.Factory.get();
KieRepository kr = ks.getRepository();
KieFileSystem kfs = ks.newKieFileSystem();
kfs.write("src/main/resources/my/rules/therule.drl", "The source code of the rule");
KieBuilder kb = ks.newKieBuilder(kfs);
kb.buildAll();
