A process application to show how you can use all features of the task list with dynamically configured content.
You have to pass process variables for
- task name:
taskName - assignee:
assignee - candidateGroups:
candidateGroups - due date:
dueDate - follow up date:
followUpDate - priority:
priority - task form key:
formKey - task description:
description
when starting the process instance.
All these variables have to be passed, otherwise you will get this error:
org.camunda.bpm.engine.ProcessEngineException: Unknown property used in expression: ${dueDate}. Cause: Cannot resolve identifier 'dueDate'
...
Caused by: org.camunda.bpm.engine.impl.javax.el.PropertyNotFoundException: Cannot resolve identifier 'dueDate'
To start a process instance by rest call may look like this:
POST /engine-rest/process-definition/key/single-task-process/start HTTP/1.1
Host: localhost:8080
Content-Type: application/json
Cache-Control: no-cache
{
"variables" : {
"taskName" : { "value" : "My task" },
"assignee" : { "value" : "john" },
"candidateGroups" : { "value" : "management" },
"dueDate" : { "value" : "2016-09-23" },
"followUpDate" : { "value" : null },
"priority" : { "value" : 15 },
"formKey" : { "value": "embedded:app:forms/task-form.html" },
"description" : { "value" : null}
}
}
If you like to get a readable name in the process diagram, you can set the name in a TaskListener.
There is no web interface to access the application.
To get started refer to the InMemoryH2Test.
To deploy it, you can use the maven plugin and run mvn clean tomcat7:[|re|un]deploy for tomcat or
mvn clean [jboss-as|wildfly]:[un]deploy for the application servers.
Once you deployed the application you can run it using Camunda Tasklist and inspect it using Camunda Cockpit.
