This project focuses on providing a bridge between Zeebe + BPMN to Knative and CloudEvents to provide CloudEvents orchestration using Zeebe Workflows.

Properties

• HOST
• TYPE
• MODE:
  • EMIT_ONLY:
  • WAIT_FOR_CLOUD_EVENT:
• WAIT_TYPE: Cloud Event Type to wait

The worker has two modes:

• EMIT ONLY: It will emit a CloudEvent and complete the Job
• WAIT FOR CLOUD EVENT: It will wait to receive CloudEvent with a specific Type which will be correlated by the workflow and job key to complete the Service Task.

The worker exposes HTTP Endpoints to receive CloudEvents that can be propagated to workflows.

• / POST - > Receive CloudEvent via HTTP that will map to a Job
• /message POST -> Receive a CloudEvent that will be forwarded as a BPMN Message for an Intermediate Catch Event
