Camunda
This ruby gem is a wrapper for the Camunda API's. You will need to create a client on your Camunda cluster and use the credentials to connect.
Installation
Add this line to your application's Gemfile:
gem 'camundapi'
And then execute:
$ bundle install
Or install it yourself as:
$ gem install camundapi
Usage
This library has an opinionated approach has how the API wrapper is implemented but it follows a very similar approach for every Camunda API. All the APIs are in their own module (Camunda::Operate
, Camunda::Zeebe
, ..).
Depending on which APIs you're going to use, you will have to set the right variables in the config:
Camunda.configure do |config|
config.client_id = ENV['ZEEBE_CLIENT_ID']
config.client_secret = ENV['ZEEBE_CLIENT_SECRET']
config.zeebe_audience = ENV['ZEEBE_AUDIENCE']
config.authorization_url = ENV['ZEEBE_AUTHORIZATION_SERVER_URL']
config.operate_base_url = ENV['CAMUNDA_OPERATE_BASE_URL']
config.zeebe_url = ENV['ZEEBE_URL']
config.tasklist_base_url = ENV['CAMUNDA_TASKLIST_BASE_URL']
end
In the Configuarion
class you can see all the available variables and what it defaults to.
Operate API
Implements the API endpoints you can find here. To use it with this gem, you can execute the following:
instance = Camunda::Operate::ProcessInstances.find('key')
For all the endpoints here we use the similar approach of having its own class per entity (process definitions, incidents, ..) and the search
and find
method is always available.
Zeebe API
Implements the API endpoints you can find here. It makes use of the already existing Zeebe Ruby gem. This part is a work in progress but the foundations are here to add other classes/methods. It follows the same approach as how we've implemented the Operate API - that is that every entity gets its own class. Use as follows:
Camunda::Zeebe::ProcessInstances.create(process_id: 'id-of-a-process')
Camunda::Zeebe::ProcessInstances.create(process_id: 'id-of-a-process', variables: {'operational': true})
Camunda::Zeebe::ProcessInstances.create(process_id: 'id-of-a-process', variables: {'operational': true}, version: '5')
Console API
Implements the API endpoints you can find here. To use it with this gem, you can execute the following:
clusters = Camunda::Console::Clusters.all
For all the endpoints here we use the similar approach of having its own class per entity (process definitions, incidents, ..) and the search
and find
method is always available.
Tasklist API
Implements the API endpoints you can find here. This part is a work in progress but the foundations are here to add other classes/methods. It follows the same approach as how we've implemented the Operate API - that is that every entity gets its own class. Use as follows:
Camunda::Tasklist::UserTasks.all
Development
After checking out the repo, run bin/setup
to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec
to run the tests. You can also run bin/console
for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.
To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install
. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb
, and then run bundle exec rake release
, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and the created tag, and push the .gem
file to rubygems.org.
