Ninja Camunda Module

This project provides integration of the Camunda BPMN process engine into the Ninja Framework.

Basic Usage:

• ninja-camunda has been published to Maven Central. Add the following dependency to your Ninja application's pom.xml:

    <dependency>
        <groupId>com.jensfendler</groupId>
        <artifactId>ninja-camunda</artifactId>
        <version>0.0.2</version>
    </dependency>

• Configure a basic JDBC connection for Camunda to use through your application.conf. E.g. for MySQL:

camunda.jdbc.url=jdbc:mysql://my.db.server.com:3306/camunda
camunda.jdbc.username=camundaUser
camunda.jdbc.password=camundaPassword
camunda.jdbc.driver=com.mysql.cj.jdbc.Driver

You can also use your application's existing database. Camunda will automatically amend your DB schema with all necessary tables during the first start. For advanced configuration options, have a look at the application.conf property descriptions below.

• Install an instance of the NinjaCamundaModule in your Ninja application's conf.Modules class:

	install(new NinjaCamundaModule());

• Inject a Provider<Camunda> into your classes (e.g. controllers) as necessary, and use the provider's get() method to get a singleton instance of the Camunda interface, which provides convenience methods to access all of the Camunda BPMN engine's internals (e.g. RepositoryService, RuntimeService, TaskService, ...)

	@Inject
	Provider<Camunda> camundaProvider;

    public void deploySomething(void) {
		RepositoryService repoService = camundaProvider.get().getRepositoryService();
		// ...
		repoService.createDeployment().addInputStream(resourceName, bpmnStream).enableDuplicateFiltering(true).deploy();
		// ...
    }

Configuration Options through application.conf

The following configuration options are available through application.conf to setup the Camunda process engine according to your requirements:

• camunda.jdbc.username (String) the JDBC username

• camunda.jdbc.password (String) the JDBC password

• camunda.jdbc.driver (String) the JDBC driver class to use

• camunda.jobexecutor.deploymentAware (boolean) if the JobExecutor should be deployment-aware (default: true)

• camunda.jobexecutor.activate (boolean) if the JobExecutor should immediately be activated (default: true)

• camunda.db.inMemory (boolean) if true, the JDBC configuration options above are ignored and an H2 in-memory database is used for the process engine (default: false)

• camunda.db.schemaUpdate (String) if "true" the camunda schema is created and updated, if "false" the schema is not changed, if "create-drop" any existing schema is dropped and re-created (default: "true")

• camunda.useAuthorization (boolean) if true, camunda uses user/group authorization

• camunda.smtp.from (String) the "FROM" address for camunda-sent emails. If empty (or not specified), SMTP is not configured and Camunda will not be able to send mails via SMTP

• camunda.smtp.host (String) the SMTP server name (defaults to Ninja's Postoffice SMTP server)

• camunda.smtp.port (int) the SMTP port number (defaults to Ninja's Postoffice SMTP port number, and to 25 if not set)

• camunda.smtp.username (String) SMTP username (defaults to Ninja's Postoffice SMTP username)

• camunda.smtp.password (String) the SMTP password (defaults to Ninja's Postoffice SMTP password)

• camunda.smtp.tls (boolean) if true, SMTP connections will be encrypted via TLS (defaults to Ninja's Postoffice SSL setting)
