Hi,

thanks for the positive feedback!

Could you provide some more info on what you're trying to achieve? Are you looking to implement Activiti in micro service oriented environment? Or create a dropwizard-ish layer on top on Activiti?
Please provide some additional info.

Kind Regards,

Yvo

It's pretty easy to add Activiti to dropwizard: add the dependency of Activiti and speak to it using the API's, that's really all there is!

Dropwizard is jersey based, I am using activiti-spring which comes with restlet. So do we have any activiti-dropwizard dependency module available ?? Also Dropwizard creates shadow jar and uses jetty as application container, where as activiti-spring has WAR and runs on tomcat. So I have to re-wire all these. Has anyone already solved for this ?

You don't need the activiti-spring or the rest api. or do you want to embed the REST API in dropwizard … that would be trickier

Simply add the activiti-engine and expose the methods you want is what I was I talking about.

Hasn't been done before. Take a look at the Spring Boot / Activiti Rest integration to get some ideas.
