Some Source Code for Bonita Rest API Implementation

[adsenseyu2]

Following are key source code blocks/classes/APIs to consider for you to get started with Bonita REST API implementation:

• AccessorUtil: This is the gateway API which is used to get instance of key API implementations. For example, AccessorUtil.getRuntimeAPI() gets you an instance of RuntimeAPI to work with.
• ProcessDefinitionUUID: The ProcessDefinitionUUID (org.ow2.bonita.facade.uuid.ProcessDefinitionUUID) class is one of the important parameter required to create an instance of process, such as ProcessInstanceUUID. Following code helps instantiate the process:

          ProcessDefinitionUUID processDefinitionUUID = new ProcessDefinitionUUID(process, version);
          try {
              return runtimeAPI.instantiateProcess(processDefinitionUUID, params);
          }
          catch (ProcessNotFoundException e) {        
          }
          catch (VariableNotFoundException e) {
          }

• LightTaskInstance: LightTaskInstance (org.ow2.bonita.light.LightTaskInstance) defines the tasks for the workflow.
• RuntimeAPI: RuntimeAPI (org.ow2.bonita.facade.RuntimeAPI) is used to start the tasks by setting the process instance variables and finish the tasks. Some of the important APIs methods are following:
  • startTask
  • setProcessInstanceVariables
  • finishTasks

  Following is the source code representing usage of above methods to create a task:

  public void createTask(final String taskId, final Map<String, Object> taskVariables) {
          ActivityInstanceUUID activityUUID = new ActivityInstanceUUID(taskId);
          ProcessInstanceUUID processUUID;
          runtimeAPI = AccessorUtil.getRuntimeAPI();
          queryRuntimeAPI = AccessorUtil.getQueryRuntimeAPI();
          try {
              processUUID = queryRuntimeAPI.getLightTaskInstance(activityUUID).getProcessInstanceUUID();
              LightProcessInstance lpInstance = queryRuntimeAPI.getLightProcessInstance(processUUID);
  
              runtimeAPI.startTask(activityUUID, true);
              runtimeAPI.setProcessInstanceVariables(lpInstance.getProcessInstanceUUID(), taskVariables);
              runtimeAPI.finishTask(activityUUID, true);
          }
          catch (TaskNotFoundException e) {            
          }
          catch (InstanceNotFoundException e) {
          }
          catch (IllegalTaskStateException e) {
          }
          catch (VariableNotFoundException e) {
          }
  }

• ProcessInstanceUUID: ProcessInstanceUUID (org.ow2.bonita.facade.uuid.ProcessInstanceUUID) represents the actual process instance
• LightTaskInstance: Represents the task instance. Following code can be used to create the task instance:

  public LightTaskInstance getTask(final String taskId) {
          ActivityInstanceUUID activityInstanceUUID = new ActivityInstanceUUID(taskId);
          try {
              return queryRuntimeAPI.getLightTaskInstance(activityInstanceUUID);
          }
          catch (TaskNotFoundException e) {         
          }
          return null;
  }
