输出绑定

Zeebe uses gRPC under the hood for the Zeebe client we use in this binding. Please consult the gRPC API reference for more information: https://stage.docs.zeebe.io/reference/grpc.html

topology

The topology operation obtains the current topology of the cluster the gateway is part of.

To perform a topology operation, invoke the Zeebe command binding with a POST method and the following JSON body:

{
  "data": {},
  "operation": "topology"
}

响应

The binding returns a JSON with the following response:

{
  "brokers": [
    {
      "nodeId": null,
      "host": "172.18.0.5",
      "port": 26501,
      "partitions": [
        {
          "partitionId": 1,
          "role": null,
          "health": null
        }
      ],
      "version": "0.26.0"
    }
  ],
  "clusterSize": 1,
  "partitionsCount": 1,
  "replicationFactor": 1,
  "gatewayVersion": "0.26.0"
}

The response values are:

brokers - list of brokers part of this cluster
- nodeId - unique (within a cluster) node ID for the broker
- host - hostname of the broker
- port - port for the broker
- port - port for the broker
- partitions - list of partitions managed or replicated on this broker
  - partitionId - the unique ID of this partition
  - role - the role of the broker for this partition
  - health - the health of this partition
- version - broker version
clusterSize - how many nodes are in the cluster
partitionsCount - how many partitions are spread across the cluster
replicationFactor - configured replication factor for this cluster

deploy-workflow

The deploy-workflow operation deploys a single workflow to Zeebe.

To perform a deploy-workflow operation, invoke the Zeebe command binding with a POST method and the following JSON body:

{
  "data": "YOUR_FILE_CONTENT",
  "metadata": {
    "fileName": "products-process.bpmn",
    "fileType": "bpmn"
  },
  "operation": "deploy-workflow"
}

The metadata parameters are:

fileName - the name of the workflow file
fileType - (optional) the type of the file ‘bpmn’ or ‘file’. If no type was given, the default will be recognized based on the file extension ‘bpmn’ for file extension .bpmn, for all other files it will be set to ‘file’

响应

The binding returns a JSON with the following response:

{
  "key": 2251799813687320,
  "workflows": [
    {
      "bpmnProcessId": "products-process",
      "version": 3,
      "workflowKey": 2251799813685895,

    }
  ]
}

The response values are:

key - the unique key identifying the deployment
workflows - a list of deployed workflows
- bpmnProcessId - the bpmn process ID, as parsed during deployment; together with the version forms a unique identifier for a specific workflow definition
- version - the assigned process version
- workflowKey - the assigned key, which acts as a unique identifier for this workflow
- resourceName - the resource name from which this workflow was parsed

create-instance

The create-instance operation creates and starts an instance of the specified workflow. The workflow definition to use to create the instance can be specified either using its unique key (as returned by the deploy-workflow operation), or using the BPMN process ID and a version.

Note that only workflows with none start events can be started through this command.

By BPMN process ID

To perform a create-instance operation, invoke the Zeebe command binding with a POST method and the following JSON body:

{
  "data": {

bpmnProcessId - the BPMN process ID of the workflow definition to instantiate
version - (optional, default: latest version) the version of the process to instantiate
variables - (optional) JSON document that will instantiate the variables for the root variable scope of the workflow instance; it must be a JSON object, as variables will be mapped in a key-value fashion. e.g. { “a”: 1, “b”: 2 } will create two variables, named “a” and “b” respectively, with their associated values. [{ “a”: 1, “b”: 2 }] would not be a valid argument, as the root of the JSON document is an array and not an object

    }
  },
  "operation": "create-instance"
}

The data parameters are:

workflowKey - the unique key identifying the workflow definition to instantiate
variables - (optional) JSON document that will instantiate the variables for the root variable scope of the workflow instance; it must be a JSON object, as variables will be mapped in a key-value fashion. e.g. { “a”: 1, “b”: 2 } will create two variables, named “a” and “b” respectively, with their associated values. [{ “a”: 1, “b”: 2 }] would not be a valid argument, as the root of the JSON document is an array and not an object

响应

The binding returns a JSON with the following response:

{
  "workflowKey": 2251799813685895,
  "bpmnProcessId": "products-process",

{
  "data": {
    "workflowInstanceKey": 2251799813687851
  },

set-variables

The set-variables operation creates or updates variables for an element instance (e.g. workflow instance, flow element instance).

    }
  },
  "metadata": {},
  "operation": "set-variables"
}

The data parameters are:

elementInstanceKey - the unique identifier of a particular element; can be the workflow instance key (as obtained during instance creation), or a given element, such as a service task (see elementInstanceKey on the job message)
local - (optional, default: false) if true, the variables will be merged strictly into the local scope (as indicated by elementInstanceKey); this means the variables is not propagated to upper scopes. for example, let’s say we have two scopes, ‘1’ and ‘2’, with each having effective variables as: 1 => { "foo" : 2 }, and 2 => { "bar" : 1 }. if we send an update request with elementInstanceKey = 2, variables { "foo" : 5 }, and local is true, then scope 1 will be unchanged, and scope 2 will now be { "bar" : 1, "foo" 5 }. if local was false, however, then scope 1 would be { "foo": 5 }, and scope 2 would be { "bar" : 1 }
