We have already built a BPMN designer on eclipse framework.It was easy to build with great support from eclipse based frameworks like EMF, Graphitti etc.
Now we want to build a web based BPMN designer. Can you suggest which open source frameworks i can use to do this ? I would expect the framework to support me in defining the bpmn metamodel, a graphical editor ect etc
Please share your ideas.
Oryx / Signavio Core Components
The Signavio Core Components are the "sucessor" of Oryx. A github mirror is available there: https://github.com/IAAS/signavio-core-components/
The Signavio Core Components switched from MIT to GPL license. Furthermore, they are unmaintaned.
Forks
Wapama is a fork of Oryx. It seems that https://github.com/saifulomar/process-designer is the most recently updated fork with a tight JBPM integration.
Gemsbok is another fork of the Signavio Core Components.
process-designer seems to be actively maintained (as of 2013/06)
The dependency to ExtJS was removed in the context of the Flowable project. See https://github.com/flowable/flowable-engine/tree/master/modules/flowable-ui-modeler/flowable-ui-modeler-app/src/main/resources/static/editor-app/editor for the current source.
Eclipse Stardust / Lightdust
There is also recent by the Eclipse community. Within the Stardust project, there is a web-based BPMN Modeler, accessible via git: http://git.eclipse.org/c/stardust/org.eclipse.stardust.ui.web.git/tree/stardust-web-modeler-bpmn2. Some basic information is in the Stardust Wiki, but no step-by-step-guide for using the web-based BPMN modeler standalone.
Self-implemented
We made a comparison of all available web-based graph-libraries at https://ultimate-comparisons.github.io/ultimate-graphframework-comparison/.
Example code of the best ones is available at
https://winery.github.io/javascript-graph-library-comparison/. The idea is similar to TodoMVC, but here a minimal example for graph creation is made.
(Some old comments follow)
jsPlumb-based
There is the project https://github.com/Dzhyrma/BPMN_Modeler, which is based on jsPlumb. It includes raphael, which is a SVG-based graph-drawing library.
Direct canvas drawing
https://github.com/hallodom/BPMN-Modeller directly uses the 2d canvas to draw BPMN.
http://bpmn.io/
is the best answer if the license terms (include logo) work for you.
There is already one. Oryx. I believe some of the open source bpmn engines leverage the same.
For Stardust Web based BPMN modeller step-by-step usage, please refer to thsi link:

I’m contributing in an Enterprise Integration Infrastructure project. Like many other integration software, Apache-Camel is the core of our application. To enable users defining their EIPs graphically, I want to use Fuse IDE in the software. The only thing I need the Fuse do is generating xml file from the routes which are defined by the users.
On the other hand, I know that Fuse IDE is essentially an Eclipse plugin (I think it is an Eclipse RCP plugin). Since the UI of our application is based on javaFX I want to know that is there any way to manipulate the code of Fuse to adjust it to javaFX entities?
Your help will be more than appreciated, due to the high importance of this issue for me.
That would be a lot of hard work as that code is tightly coupled to Eclipse.
So I would say NO unless you are prepared to do a lot of work porting and migration the code.
I want to create a Web project using Alfresco 4.0.
Alfresco Developer Guide -Jeff Potts Book guides me to create a web project using Alfresco 3.x. It uses the Alfresco WCM component. But I can't find the WCM component for Alfresco 4.x (Check this link Alfresco Download )
Instead of WCM component I can find the Web Quick Start component. Is it possible to create a web project using Web Quick Start alone?
Webforms and the whole AVM are outdated technology. WCM Quickstart is a just a sample implementation for web content management and has nothing in common with the AVM based approach in 3.x. It may cover very basic use cases, but I would generally discourage people from using it unless they are very clear about their requirements and what's covered by Quickstart.
That said, the best resources besides source is at http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Web_Quick_Start_Installation_and_Configuration and http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Web_Quick_Start_Developer_Guide. Follow them and you get FormService based forms for the various content types.
I want to provide an ability to create simple java and javafx applications to the users on my website. I've found excellent code editor (Ace) but I don't know how to provide FXML design tool to the Web users.
Is there any options?
ADD I want the users to use this interface builder without any additional requirements like Java 8 or something
How to host SceneBuilder in a web page (requires Java 8):
Build SceneBuilder from it's source.
Package it as a Browser Embedded Application.
Host your packaged application on the Internet and direct web users to its URL.
Other than using a fork of SceneBuilder for your project, I don't know of any other feasible way to provide visual FXML editing capabilities. I would certainly not recommend trying to create from scratch your own FXML visual editor written in either Java or JavaScript.
What is your approach for creating your own set of controls aka own Extensions Library? After a few years of Xpages development we have a huge set of controls that are general purpose for building UI, some web services etc. (Probably as most other developers.) When we start a new project now we have to copy the entire stuff from one database to new one which involves controls, jars, css, images, JAVA code ... and then you completely loose control to maintain some central version of this controls & codes, everything is scattered among several projects/databases and things get messy fast.
We have thought about creating our own extension library as described here
http://www-10.lotus.com/ldd/ddwiki.nsf/dx/Master_Table_of_Contents_for_XPages_Extensibility_APIs_Developer_Guide but there is not enough documentation for this topic and the entire development process is quite complicated (at least seems to me. I tried two times based on docs above going through eclipse plugin project -> feature project -> update site and still having some bugs around)
What is your experience and approach for creating and maintaining shared Xpages controls in your Domino environment? Is there some hidden feature we miss here that can help us?
Take a look at the XSP Starter Kit on OpenNTF and the XPages SDK to setup an eclipse environment for plugin development. You'll also want Eclipse IDE for RCP and RAP Developers. Install the starter kit and SDK into eclipse and you should be all set.
The starter kit is a sample plugin with all kinds of examples of phase listeners, components, etc. Once you want to deploy your plugin, create an update site from within eclipse and use the Update Site NSF available on your server install to place your update site. Once that's done, you can replicate that NSF to any other servers that may need the plugin.
For more information about the starter kit, take a look at this slide deck. There is also a github project for the starter kit. Documentation for the XPages SDK can be found here. And a video for setting up the SDK is available on youtube. Lastly, here's the documentation for setting up the update site NSF.
While we haven't gotten to that yet in XPages, our model for regular Notes design elements is to have a central template that contains the elements that are shared, with those specific design elements marked to inherit from that template. Sometimes, a database inherits design elements from two different central templates.
That way, those centrally controlled design elements remain the same in all databases.
I would recommend looking at some example's on github for how they have library/components setup. One of the more simpler examples that has just a single component built into a Library is Steve Pridemore's App Layout Extension...https://github.com/DominoDev, Another good one is Nathan Freeman's Starterkit: https://github.com/the-ntf/xspstarterkit. Hopefully these will help you get the file structure down on which files you need and how they work.
I am working on a static analysis for detecting security vulnerabilities in web applications, and I am looking for some web applications to run my analysis on.
More specifically I am right now looking for open-source web applications that use the Struts2 framework, but I have a hard time finding such applications.
Does anyone know of some more or less complete and open-source web applications written using Struts2 (or possibly just plain JSP)?
The very complete and stable Struts2 application i use for log file analysis is KonaKart. The advantage is that you can set it up on your server, including demo data and configure it and use it as you wish.
In terms of openness:
"Only the customizable parts of KonaKart are open source. These include the Struts action classes and
forms, the JSPs, the payment modules, order total modules, shipping modules and the GWT One Page
Checkout code. They are shipped under the GNU Lesser General Public License."
If you need 100% open source it is not for you.
