Automatic Process Definition Deployment with Docker

Camunda 7 Topics Discussion & Questions

Hello! Hope you are well.

I want to deploy some process definition on Camunda start up. I have found that it could be done via processes.xml configuration file. But there is a problem.

I have the following architecture.

  1. Camunda platform in docker from camunda/camunda-bpm-platform
  2. A few my plugins;

And I literally do not understand where I should put processes.xml in this situation.

Maybe I should use another approach in this situation? F.E. deploy process definitions by myself in postInit method of plugin?

Thank you in advance.

can you explain your processes a bit?
Are they just BPMN files or do they have dependencies like java classes?

Hello, Niall.

There are only BPMN file and nothing else. And there is no any dependencies.
It is pretty simple processes contains only user tasks and external tasks.
