How To Integrate Activiti Modeller Into own Web Application

Question

I am very new with activiti and as a part of my project development i need to separate out activiti-modeller from activiti explorer and integrate it with my own web application.

Can anyone give me the steps in detail of how to perform the required activity.

I am using wavemaker 6.5 to develop my application

I went through the source code of activiti explorer but couldnt make out which part to use and how to use it.

Answer 1

It's actually quite easy to extract the KisBPM Modeler from the Activiti Explorer.

Extract the following from the source tree into your web application:

• resources/editor.html
• resources/plugins.xml
• resources/stenclset.json
• webapp/editor
• webapp/api
• webapp/explorer
• webapp/libs
• editor (THIS IS THE EDITOR SOURCE IF YOU NEED TO MODIFY IT)

Make sure you add a dependency to activiti-modeler in your webapp pom.xml (this will bring import the restlet classes). Create a custom root restlet to map your inbound calls (use explorerRestApplication as a template) Add the restlet declaration to your web.xml

I think that's about it. We successfully extracted the KisBPM editor for use in an embedded environment that used a custom portal implementation.
