example orchestrator (beginner workshop)

Example code for the orchestrator-core beginner workshop from the Workflow Orchestrator programme.

Do the workshop

This repository contains the code that belongs to the orchestrator-core beginner workshop, and can be used as an example in case you are stuck during the workshop exercises. The only files you need to copy are the docker-compose.yml, to create and run the environment used during the workshop, and the orchestrator-core-gui.env that is needed to correctly configure the GUI. Please follow the workshop for further instructions.

Shortcut to working example orchestrator

When in a hurry, or just curious, the example orchestrator can be started by following the instructions below. This example implements the products and workflows for a simple user and user group administration.

First clone this repository:

git clone https://github.com/workfloworchestrator/example-orchestrator-beginner.git

Use docker compose to start the environment and initialize the database:

cd example-orchestrator-beginner
docker compose up

Stop docker compose, copy the migrations to add the products and workflows to the database, and start the environment again:

# ^C
cp -av examples/*add_user_and_usergroup* migrations/versions/schema
docker compose up

Now point your browser to http://localhost:3000/ and have a look around. You can use the New Process button to create subscription on the defined products.
