Today we released version 5.0.2 of the Open Source Workflow Engine Imixs-Workflow.
The new release includes – beside the general new support of Eclipse Microprofile – some important new features. The main feature of this release is a new implementation of Imixs Adapter API. This API supports now two kinds of adapter interfaces.
- The SignalAdapter can be used to implement a fine grained control of the event processing life cycle.
- The GenericAdapter interface provides a model independent extension point to implement generic API features.
One of the first implementations is the new AccessAdapter class. This adapter controls the ACL defined by the Imixs-BPMN Model definition. This adapter can also be a good starting point of custom generic adapters.
Together with the Imixs Plugin API the Adapter API now provides developers with a strong and flexible extension mechanism to implement all kind of human-centric and microservice based workflow applications.
