Code editor for Camunda Modeler

A Camunda Modeler plug-in based on the plug-in example.

About

This plug-in integrates a script editor to Camunda Modeler, allowing a user to write scripts with code highlights and language auto completion.

Install

Extract the release zip file to your camunda-modeler/resources/plugins folder. Super easy!

Limitations

Up to now, only if Script Format is 'groovy' or 'javascript'

• JAVA instances must be present in the system PATH variable, otherwise the plugin will not be able to detect them correctly.
• On javascript, only for 'simple' scripts which do not involve JSON/XML manipulation.
• On groovy everything should work.

Development Setup

Unlike other plugins, this project has been wrapped in a Maven project to integrate other components inside it and generate a final bundle which contains:

• The Camunda Modeler javascript plugin itself
• Our Spring Boot groovy executor application which will get executed on Camunda Modeler startup
• A standalone JDK which executes the mentioned application

To work on this plugin you will need to install:

• Node.js
• Java JDK
• Maven

Building the Plug-in

Just run mvn clean install. you will find the zip bundle in the target directory of the build module.
