Deploy new workflow in Workflow Console

[billydekid]

Hi,

I still don't understand when deploying a workflow in Workflow Console:

deploy <workflowEngine> <definitionClassPath>.

How do we know the <definitionClassPath> of my current workflow?

Thank you.-

First you need to place the workflow definition file under an alfresco classpath folder. for example

you place it under folder ${TOMCAT_HOME}/shared/classes/com/kayne/alfresco/workflow,you can execute command

show file com/kayne/alfresco/workflow/

deploy activiti com/kayne/alfresco/workflow/kayne.bpmn.xml

Under ${TOMCAT_HOME}/shared/classes, I only found alfresco dir and alfresco-global.properties.

My workflow (.bpmn file) is resided under /opt/alfresco-community/tomcat/shared/webapps/alfresco/WEB-INF/classes/alfresco/module/my-workflow-repo/workflows

I can browse it by typing: show file alfresco/module/my-workflow-repo/workflows

And run deploy: deploy activiti alfresco/module/my-workflow-repo/workflows/myWorkflow.bpmn

Thanks a lot!

You should read this Creating Custom Advanced Workflows in Alfresco | ECMArchitect | Alfresco Developer Tutorials

There you will find how to deploy the workflow.

Hi, Yes I already read it. But deploying a definition through workflow console with deploy <workflowengine> <definitionClassPath> command is not mentioned on Jeff's blog.

Thanks!
