Petals-SE-Activiti 1.0.0-SNAPSHOT

Features

The component SE Activiti includes a BPMN 2.0 engine and provides two operational mode:

  • integration mode, that exposes a service-based API of a BPMN 2.0 engine (Activiti),
  • service mode to implement your services using orchestrations and workflows,
  • the service tasks invoke natively, through the NMR, the services available into Petals ESB

Integration mode

The mode "Integration" of the SE Activiti permits to interact directly with the BPMN 2.0 engine (Activiti) through a service-based API. Several services are provided by the component to interact directly with the BPMN 2.0 engine. This mode is activated at the component level.

Concurrency

Several instance of the component can be deployed concurrently on Petals ESB. A sequence of service-based API invocations can be exploded on each component instances

Service mode

The mode "Service" of the SE Activiti permits to implement your services using orchestration and/or process capabilities of BPMN 2.0. This mode is available through the deployment of a service unit including the process definition.

Orchestration

An orchestration is sequence of automatic service invocations, and can be modeled as a sequence of service tasks in a BPMN2 description. Creating an instance of such a process will start automatically the sequence of service invocations. With BPMN2 it is possible to implement your orchestration as a process containing only service tasks. For example, the following orchestration can be an implementation of a service processing a "New Order":

Process

A process or workflow can be "servicized" at different levels:

  • when creating a new instance of the process definition,
  • when completing a task of the process instance
  • when searching process instances or tasks

For example, the previous sample can be reworked replacing two service tasks by human tasks with such a process:

Then created services are:

  • the service "New Order" associated to a process instance creation,
  • the service "Order Prepared" associated to the completion of the task "prepareOrder",
  • the service "Order Delivered" associated to the completion of the task "deliverOrder".

Concurrency

Several instance of the component can be deployed concurrently on Petals ESB. So, you are able to deploy each process definitions on several component instances to get high availability.

Creating a service-unit for a process definition

Creating the service contract

The SE Activiti provides a service with several operation for a process definition. A WSDL is associated to this service. This WSDL can be written freely. The user can use its own namespace, its own names, ... It is only constraint by the following rules:

  • the operations of the binding section are annotated to link them to the supported operations (create an instance of the process definition, complete the current task of the process instance, ...)
  • the mandatory parameters of the operation are annotated to retrieve the right values.
For a unit test purpose, an extension of JUnit is available to validate your WSDL not only in a pur WSDL point of view, but also in a SE Activiti point of view. See chapter "[Unit testing]".

Identifying operations

The mapping between operations of the WSDL and operations supported by the SE Activiti is declared using a dedicated binding. The binding "Activiti" is done adding the element {http://petals.ow2.org/se/activiti/1.0}operation to the element operation of the binding. Its attribute activitiAction defines the operation that will be executed.

Identifying input parameters of operations

In the same way, input parameters of operations are mapped through an annotation placed inside the message of the binding operation. Two natures of input parameters exists: the expected input parameters and variables. Each Activiti operation can require mandatory or optional input parameter and can accept to set several variables in the same time.

Input parameters are identified by the annotation adding the element {http://petals.ow2.org/se/activiti/1.0}input-parameter. This annotation takes also two attributes:

  • the attribute name defines a name of an expected input parameter of the Activiti operation,
  • the attribute value defines the value to set to the expected input parameter using an XPath expression.
    See operation details to know the expected input parameters.

Variables are identified by the annotation adding the element {http://petals.ow2.org/se/activiti/1.0}variable. This annotation takes also two attributes:

  • the attribute name defines the variable name used in the process definition.
  • the attribute value defines the value to set to the variable using an XPath expression.
    See operation details to know if variables can be set.
    No extra check is done by the SE Activiti about the compliance of the variable with the process definition.

TODO. Les types ?; les arborescences

Identifying output parameters of operations

Output parameters of the Activiti operation can not be set into the output reply of the service operation using a simple XPath expression as for input parameters. An XSL style-sheet is required to generated the full output reply. It is identified using the annotation adding the element {http://petals.ow2.org/se/activiti/1.0}output. The XSL style-sheet name is set into the attribute xsl and loaded from the classloader. The XSL style-sheets are mainly located in the service-units, they can also be packaged as a shared library.

According to the Activiti operation executed, its output parameters are transmitted to the XSL style-sheet through XSL parameters. You will use these XSL parameters to generate your service reply from your service request payload. See operation details to know the available XSL parameters.

For a unit test purpose, an extension of JUnit is available to test your XSL. See chapter "[Unit testing]".

What about fault ?

Associating an operation to the creation of an process definition instance

The operation creating instances of process definition is identified by the value createProcInstOp set on the attribute activitiAction:

<wsdl:binding name="Order" xmlns:activiti="http://petals.ow2.org/se/activiti/1.0">
   <wsdl:operation name="newOrder" type="...">
      <activiti:operation activitiAction="createProcInstOp" />
      <activiti:variable name="customerName" value="/newOrderRequest/customerName" />
      <activiti:variable name="address" value="/newOrderRequest/address" />
      <activiti:output xsl="newOrderOutput.xsl" />
      <wsdl:input/>
      <wsdl:output/>
   </wsdl:operation>
</wsdl:binding>

No input parameter is expected by this operation. Only variables can be set creating a process instance.

The XSL parameters available to generate the service output reply are:

XSL parameter name Type Description
processInstanceId String Identifier of the process instance created

It is possible to map several operations of the WSDL to the creation of process instances, but this has perhaps no sens.

Associating an operation to the completion of a process instance task

The operation completing a task of a process instance is identified by the value completeTaskOp set on the attribute activitiAction:

<wsdl:binding name="Order" xmlns:activiti="http://petals.ow2.org/se/activiti/1.0" >
   <wsdl:operation name="validOrder">
      <activiti:operation activitiAction="completeTaskOp" />
      <activiti:input-parameter name="processInstanceId" value="/validOrderRequest/orderId" />
      <activiti:input-parameter name="taskId" value="/validOrderRequest/validationStepId" />
      <activiti:variable name="validationApproved" value="/validOrderRequest/isValidated" />
      <activiti:variable name="creditCardNumber" value="/validOrderRequest/creditCardNumber" />
      <activiti:output xsl="validOrderOutput.xsl" />
      <wsdl:input/>
      <wsdl:output/>
   </wsdl:operation>
</wsdl:binding>

This operation accepts variables and requires the following input parameters:

Input parameter name Type Description Required
processInstanceId String Identifier of the process instance created Yes
taskDefinitionKey String Name of the task in the process definition. *Caution: Its value is not an XPath expression but a constant Yes

Note: The completion status of the task is a variable and so it takes any form.

No XSL parameters is available to generate the service output reply. Your XSL style-sheet will be a "constant" style-sheet.

A such operation is defined for each task of the process definition to complete. C'est le cas d'un service par tache à terminer. Essayer de mieux expliquer..

Mapping des parametres à faire

Associating an operation to retrieve process instances

The operation retrieving process instances is identified by the value retrieveProcInst set on the attribute activitiAction:

<wsdl:binding name="Order" xmlns:activiti="http://petals.ow2.org/se/activiti/1.0">
   <wsdl:operation name="searchOrder" type="...">
      <activiti:operation activitiAction="retrieveProcInst" />
      <activiti:input-parameter name="processInstanceId" value="/searchOrderRequest/orderId" />
      <activiti:input-parameter name="isActive" value="/searchOrderRequest/isInProgress" />
      <activiti:input-parameter name="responsibleUser" value="/searchOrderRequest/responsibleUser" />
      <activiti:input-parameter name="responsibleGroup" value="/searchOrderRequest/responsibleGroup" />
      <activiti:output xsl="searchOrderOutput.xsl" />
      <wsdl:input/>
      <wsdl:output/>
   </wsdl:operation>
</wsdl:binding>

This operation requires the following input parameters:

Input parameter name Type Description Required
processInstanceId String Identifier of the process instance containing the tasks returned. No
isActive Boolean Only active task are returned. No
responsibleUser String Only select tasks for which the given user is a candidate are returned. No
responsibleGroup String Only select tasks for which users in the given group are candidates are returned. No

It does not use variables.

It is possible to map several operations of the WSDL to search process instance, for example with different search criteria.

Configuring the component

The component is be configured through the parameters of its JBI descriptor file. These parameters are divided in following groups:

  • JBI parameters that have not to be changed otherwise the component will not work,
  • CDK parameters that are parameters driving the processing of the CDK layer,
  • and *Activiti parameters" that are relative to the engine "Activiti".

Installation

Definition of CDK parameter scope :

  • Installation: The parameter can be set during the installation of the component, by using the installation MBean (see JBI specifications for details about the installation sequence). If the parameter is optional and has not been defined during the development of the component, it is not available at installation time.
  • Runtime: The paramater can be set during the installation of the component and during runtime. The runtime configuration can be changed using the CDK custom MBean named RuntimeConfiguration. If the parameter is optional and has not been defined during the development of the component, it is not available at installation and runtime times.

Interceptor

Interceptors can be defined to inject some post or pre processing in the component during service processing.

Using interceptor is very sensitive and must be manipulate only by power users. An non properly coded interceptor engaged in a component can lead to uncontrolled behaviors, out of the standard process.

Example of an interceptor configuration:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!--...-->
<petalsCDK:component-interceptors>
  <petalsCDK:interceptor active="true" class="org.ow2.petals.myInterceptor" name="myInterceptorName">
