Example of a jbpm service with spring boot.
The project is composed by a kjar, representing a sample new-hire BPMN process and by a kie-server running on spring boot.

This is an image showing the BPMN process:

You need an OpenShift cluster version 3.11 to run the application.
You can also use minishift or oc cluster.

You need the OpenShift CLI (oc command) on your machine in order to use the launch.sh script.

You need Docker on your machine to build the images.

Deployment on OpenShift has been perfomed using the maven fabric8 plugin; openshift resources are into folder: src/main/fabric8:

Image Build:

mvn fabric8:build -Dfabric8.namespace=${build_environment}

Generate & Apply DeploymentConfig:

mvn fabric8:resource fabric8:resource-apply -Dfabric8.openshift.enableAutomaticTrigger=false -Dfabric8.openshift.imageChangeTrigger=false -Dfabric8.namespace=${deploy_environment} -Dfabric8.generator.name=docker-registry.default.svc:5000/${build_environment}/${service_name}:1.0.0

Deploy to OpenShift:

oc rollout latest dc/${deploy_config} -n ${deploy_environment}

You need an existing PAM business central listening at localhost:8080 (for monitoring the kie server).
You need to define these two properties for the business central in order to monitor the kie-server:

<property name="org.kie.server.user" value="user"/>
<property name="org.kie.server.pwd" value="user"/>

  cd new-hire-kjar
  mvn clean install

The list of kie containers (groupId, artifactId version) to deploy at startup must be defined inside the new-hire-service.xml file.
The kjars must exists inside your local .m2 maven repository.

Several application.properties are defined, each one with a specific database configuration:

• h2 (default)
• mysql
• postgres
• oracle

You can configure the user/password to connect with the controller (Business Central) through the following system properties inside the new-hire-service.xml file:

 org.kie.server.controller.user=<user>
 org.kie.server.controller.pwd=<password>

A custom rest endpoint, registered under path /rest/pam is available and it adds additional APIs to the kie server.

Process instances and human tasks basic metrics are exposed using prometheus; they are available at url:
http://localhost:8090/rest/metrics

Swagger is available at: http://localhost:8090/rest/api-docs

load the json definition: http://localhost:8090/rest/api-docs?url=http://localhost:8090/rest/swagger.json

A postman collection named postman.json for testing the API is available inside postman directory.
