ProActive Workflow Catalog

The purpose of the workflow catalog is to store ProActive workflows.

A workflow catalog is subdivided into buckets.

Each bucket manages zero, one or more versioned ProActive workflows.

Building and deploying

You can build a WAR file as follows:

$ gradle clean build war

Then, you can directly deploy the service with embedded Tomcat:

$ java -jar build/libs/workflow-catalog-X.Y.Z-SNAPSHOT.war

The WAR file produced by Gradle can also be deployed in the embedded Jetty container started by an instance of ProActive Server.
