Red Hat JBoss BPM Suite Cartridge for OpenShift

Summary

This cartridge provides the Red Hat JBoss BPM Suite for easy deployment to OpenShift.

Deployment

To try out JBoss BPM Suite on OpenShift please follow the instructions:

If you want to use the OpenShift create application page, enter the cartridge URI of https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jboss-bpms/openshift-cartridge-bpms/master/metadata/manifest.yml in the entry field (at the bottom left of the form).

Or if you want to use the rhc command line type:

rhc create-app -g medium <APP NAME> https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jboss-bpms/openshift-cartridge-bpms/master/metadata/manifest.yml

This will output the generated users and passwords for Business Central.

You can use them to login into Business Central or BAM applications.

Usage

Access the web application

  • In order to access the BPMS Business Central navigate to http://<app_name>-<rh_domain>.<domain>:<port>/business-central
  • In order to access the BPMS Dashbuilder navigate to http://<app_name>-<rh_domain>.<domain>:<port>/dashbuilder

Clone Git repositories from the web application

  • All repositories present in the web application can be cloned
  • OpenShift applications have opened by default the HTTPS port (8443).
  • If your OpenShift client requires accessing other application public ports, you must perform port forwarding in your station.
  • So in order to clone a specific web application repository, first you must perform port-forwarding from the OpenShift server and then run the clone git command (when ports are forwarded).

These are the steps:

1.- Using your rhc client, type the following command: rhc port-forward <APP_NAME>

2.- When executing the above command, a list of forwarded ports will be visible. This ports are forwarded until you finish the rhc client process (executed using port-forward argument). So DO NOT close this terminal until the application repository is fully cloned.

3.- Once OpenShift application ports are forwarded, you can run git clone using this URL: ssh://<app_user>@127.0.0.1:9521/<app_name> (NOTE that the user for the ssh connection is not a system user, is a BPMS application user)

This is an example of cloning a application repository named test-repo using a BPMS application user with login bpm-admin. The application name is test-app:

rhc port-forward test-app
git clone ssh://bpm-admin@127.0.0.1:9521/test-repo

IMPORTANT NOTE: If when trying to clone the application repository you see this error:

@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

You will have to remove the existing fingerprint for your ssh connection in your ~/.ssh/known_hosts file.

When you install the cartridge, several users are automatically created. Their passwords are automatically generated for security reasons and displayed as follows:

Manage users and roles

When you install the cartridge, several users and roles are created. Their passwords are automatically generated for security reasons and displayed during cartridge installation. The following table summarizes this initial setup:

User Description Roles
bpm-admin BPM Administrator admin
bpm-analyst Process analyst role analyst
bpm-manager BPM Manager manager
bpm-user BPM User user
root Dashboard superuser admin
loan User to run the mortgage example analyst,broker,manager,appraiser

To display the current list of users and their passwords, you can simply use the following RHC command:

rhc ssh <APPLICATION-ID>  'cat bpms/standalone/configuration/bpms-users.properties'

The current assignation of roles can be displayed by using:

rhc ssh <APPLICATION-ID>  'cat bpms/standalone/configuration/bpms-roles.properties'

To create new users, change their passwords or role assignation, you must edit the following files inside the gear.

bpms/standalone/configuration/bpms-users.properties
bpms/standalone/configuration/bpms-roles.properties

To access into the gear type:

rhc ssh <APPLICATION-ID>
