The purpose of this page is to describe different methods that can be used to include a custom BPMN workflow to ONAP SO (Casablanca Release)
...
Case you need to add a custom workflow to a running ONAP instance, you can use on one of the below methods :
Prerequisite : For ONAP casablanca release, Camunda apps are not exposed by default, so in order to be able to access Camunda applications (rest-engine, cockpit, tasklist,..), you need to expose the so-bpmn-infra deployment in your running ONAP instance.
...
You can run the workflow directly using below URI
| http://{{onap_LB@}}:{{camunda_Pod_Port}}/sobpmnengine/process-definition/key/{{BPMN_NAME}}/start |
|---|
The above link will bypass the API handler and run the required workflow directly.
How SO links a Service or VNF to a workflow ?
To be able to run the workflows via the APIhandler, you first need to manually create a link between the service UUID and the associated workflow in the service, service_recipe and vnf_recipe tables in SO db (catalogdb) , in order to have SO trigger the custom workflow when the createinstance action is triggered to so SO API handler.
For example below, you can see in the screenshot how a custom workflow is added and linked to a specific service model in the SO service_recipe table.
You can find the SERVICE_MODEL_UUID from the services table, when a new service model is distributed from SDC to SO, a new row with the service model UUID will be created there.
Where are the BPMN workflows in SO ?
