How do you use Activiti? Embeded engine, Rest, spring-boot?

It is easy to answer if you tell it.

I made the example project for your case.

Does it make sense?

Hi,

Thank you for your support. Given code very helpful to me.

Please clarify my doubts i mentioned in below.

1. Where we created users and role groups in given project?

2. Please check below questions.

@Override
public List<Group> findGroupsByUser(String userId) {
Map<String, String> groupMapping = new HashMap<String, String>();
groupMapping.put("vamsi", "admin");
groupMapping.put("gonzo", "dev");
groupMapping.put("fozzie", "user");

Group group = new GroupEntity();
group.setId(groupMapping.get(userId));
group.setName(groupMapping.get(userId));
group.setType(groupMapping.get(userId));

return Arrays.asList(group);
}

I think in above code we maintain user id and group data by using groupMapping variable. Here i think, will maintain my app users and group data in groupMapping varaible. right?

Thanks

My sample only shows how to plug in its own implementation into Activiti 's Identity Management.

The implementation itself, please do as you like to suit your requirements.

K. above project scenario is custom groups, right?

Yeah. My example is focused on how to resolve uses who belong to the specified group.

On the contrary, I think that the process execution engines other than that are not dependent on Identity Management.

K. Similarly, I would like to change Users right?

Does the following procedure make sense?

1. You need implement UserIdentityManager.class or extend UserEntityManager.class.

2. You need implement your own UserEntityManagerFactory that return your UserIdentityManager implementation for UserIdentityManager interface.

3. You need set your own UserEntityManagerFactory to ProcessEngineConfiguration.
