Once the registration is done and confirmed, we need to click on the Add Application but-
ton, which will take us to the cartridge selection screen. Cartridges are components in-
stalled into an environment to provide a specific functionality, such as a JBoss environ-
ment, a MySQL database, and so on. In our case, we're going to focus on two options that
install KIE Workbench-like web applications on a server such as JBoss Application Serv-
er, described in the following list:
• The
JBoss Business Process Management Suite Cartridge
: This is the Red Hat
maintained cartridge to access the product version of the KIE Workbench (called
Red Hat BPMS). It requires a paid subscription to work properly, as it consumes a
lot of resources.
• Use a custom cartridge: At the bottom of the page, you will see a text field that
you can complete with a specific URL. We can select our manually created cart-
ridges there. I've created a special cartridge to run the community version of this
project, and if you type
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/
marianbuenosayres/openshift-cartridge-kiewb/master/
metadata/manifest.yml
into the text field and click on
Next
, you will see
the page to configure the name of your application. We will select a name for it, a
domain, and click on the
Create Application
button at the bottom of the page, as
shown in the following screenshot:
The application will take some time to be created. Once it is available, you should be able
to access the application through the provided URL, and depending on the cartridge you
used, a link will appear to access the BPMS, or an automatic redirection will take you to
the KIE Workbench.
