Bonita Engine

Deploy, execute, manage applications made with Bonita Studio.

Using the Engine

The engine is included as part of either Bonita Studio or Bonita Web Platform, and executes the BPMN process logic. The engine can however be included as a standalone dependency in a custom Application, as explained here

Running the Project

Prerequisites

Java JDK 1.8 (to compile), and JVM 8 or 11 (to run)

This project bundles the Gradle Wrapper, so the gradlew script is available at the project root.

Compiling

Just run the following Gradle command:

./gradlew build

To be able to successfully build other Bonita components that use the Engine, run:

 ./gradlew publishToMavenLocal

Among other things, it also generates the javadoc used by Bonita Studio.

The command above runs all unit tests. To skip them, add the -x test option.

Version

Due to the Gradle plugin com.bonitasoft.gradle.bonita-release, the version of the artifacts is automatically calculated from the last tag of the current branch.

To override the current version on build, use the parameter forceCurrentVersion like:

 ./gradlew -PforceCurrentVersion=7.9.3 <tasks>

Running unit / integration tests

To run all unit + integration tests (on the default embedded H2 database), run the following command:

./gradlew test integrationTest

Project Structure

The project is composed of several modules. Unit tests are contained in the modules, integration tests are regrouped in bonita-integration-tests.

• bonita-engine-spring-boot-starter : Run the engine in standalone mode using Spring boot, see documentation
• bonita-engine-standalone : Run the engine in standalone programmatically, see documentation
• bonita-test-api : Junit Rule to include the engine in your tests
• bpm : Services related to bpm process execution
• buildSrc : Internal Gradle plugins used to build Bonita Engine
• platform : Services that handle the platform creation/configuration
• services : Generic services used by the engine
