Integration with Enhydra Shark

[Alfredo Larotonda, modifié il y a 15 années.]

Hi,
I have to integrate a Liferay Portal application with the Enhydra Shark workflow engine.
What I need is a portlet (or some portlets..) that an user can access to view his assignment, start a process, work on an activity and so on.
I would appreciate if someone could give me some information about existing portlets that fit my needs.

Thanks a lot

Alfredo

You could use the LR-Workflow-Portlet.
You would find the src in the LR-Plugins repo - see here.

The following wiki would be helpful too - http://www.liferay.com/web/guest/community/wiki/-/wiki/Main/Using+the+LR-Workflow+Portlet.

By default, LR uses ServiceMix / Mule with jbpm-web to enable workflow.
With this approach, it might be difficult for you to integrate with enhydra.

What you could try to do is to try using workflow-portlet with saw-web.
svn://svn.liferay.com/repos/public/plugins/trunk/webs/saw-web.

You could refer to this wiki page as to how to configure workflow-portlet to use saw-web.
http://www.liferay.com/web/guest/community/wiki/-/wiki/Main/Using+the+LR-Workflow+Portlet+with+SAW-WEB.

You could write a saw implementation for enhydra, and put this jar to saw-web/web-inf/lib and test out.
I feel this could be easier for you.

Thanks a lot, very good advice!
The SAW approach is very interesting.
I'll make some experiments and I'll report the results to the community.
Maybe I could develop a saw adapter for Enhydra Shark.
I'll give you news about this.

Thanks

Thank you for your interest in SAW.

Please also visit https://saw.dev.java.net. It has complete user guides for how to use SAW and how to write implementation for SAW.

Currently the following are available:

SAW Implementation for Java CAPS Workflow Engine
SAW Implementation for jBPM i.e. saw-web has the impl as indicated by Ganesh
SAW Implementation for OSWorkflow

All three impls ae downloadable from saw.dev.java.net

Please let us know any more information that you might need to complete the same for enhydra-shark.

This is one of the impls we are looking forward to.


Thanks
Vihang
