Detailed Description
Example embodiments will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. Example embodiments may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the examples set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the concept of example embodiments to those skilled in the art. The drawings are merely schematic illustrations of the invention and are not necessarily drawn to scale. The same reference numerals in the drawings denote the same or similar parts, and thus their repetitive description will be omitted.
Furthermore, the described features, structures, or characteristics may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments. In the following description, numerous specific details are provided to provide a thorough understanding of embodiments of the invention. One skilled in the relevant art will recognize, however, that the invention may be practiced without one or more of the specific details, or with other methods, components, devices, steps, and so forth. In other instances, well-known structures, methods, devices, implementations, materials, or operations are not shown or described in detail to avoid obscuring aspects of the invention.
FIG. 1 is a flow chart illustrating a first method for optimizing a process management system in accordance with an exemplary embodiment.
In this embodiment, a process management system, which is developed based on active, is independent of a Service system, and provides services to the outside in an SOA (Service-Oriented Architecture) mode, is taken as an example to explain, and the Service system can provide services of two protocols, namely, Hessian and rest, to the outside, and can complete management of a life cycle of a whole Service process through Service invocation. However, the present disclosure is not limited thereto.
An SOA is a component model that ties different functional units of an application (called services) through well-defined interfaces and contracts between these services. The interface is defined in a neutral manner and should be independent of the hardware platform, operating system and programming language in which the service is implemented. This allows services built into various such systems to interact in a uniform and versatile manner.
Hessian is a lightweight remoting onhttp tool that provides RMI functionality using a simple method. Compared with WebService, Hessian is simpler and quicker. The binary RPC protocol is used, and is well suited for transmitting binary data because it is a binary protocol.
The service flow is to disperse the processing procedure of a specific service into a series of service nodes or tasks with sequence, organization and logic, and to represent and automatically operate in a Computer by a proper model, which belongs to a part of Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW).
As shown in fig. 1, in step S110, exception information of the automatic task node is captured and stored, and rollback of the task is prevented.
Wherein, the automatic task node may be a serviceTask node. When an exception occurs in the serviceTask node, the exception is captured and the exception information is recorded, for example, in a database.
The automatic task node is that before starting the process, variable data for controlling the process progress required by the process is prepared, and after starting the process, the variable data can be executed according to the predefined process without external intervention.
In this embodiment, an exception may be captured at the serviceTask node by rewriting the activti code, and the exception information is stored in the database, and the exception is no longer thrown outward, so that rollback of the task may be prevented.
In step S120, the node where the current flow stays is queried according to the identification information of the flow instance (e.g., the flow instance ID).
In this embodiment, the API of the node in query execution provided by the external service through the Activiti can know which node the current process stays in according to the process instance ID.
The process instance is a running instance of the process definition, which represents a service to be completed. When a user invokes an API to initiate a process, an instance of the process is generated. The process instance is operated by a user, and different running states are generated: pre-starting, running, suspended, terminated, failed and finished. The states of the process instances may be switched with each other under different operations. When the process instance is in the running process, the circulation of the process instance fails due to system abnormality or data abnormality and the like.
In step S130, a new task is generated and executed according to the identification information (e.g., node ID) of the node where the current flow stays.
In this embodiment, the API for creating the task provided by the active device may be used to call the API for creating the task at the current flow node to form a new task, and the abnormal serviceTask node may stay at the current node and may continue to execute in this manner.
In the prior art, in order to ensure consistency, when a serviceTask node is abnormal, a rollback of a task is performed, so that the task cannot stay at the current serviceTask node, and thus a flow is interrupted. The method for optimizing the process management system provided by the embodiment of the invention has the advantages that the exception is captured and stored in the serviceTask node, the exception is not thrown outwards to prevent the rollback of the task, the current process stays on which node is obtained through inquiry, the API for creating the task is called at the current process node to form a new task, and the abnormal serviceTask node stays at the current node and can be continuously executed by using the mode, so that the interrupted process can be continuously executed, and a large amount of resources can be saved.
It should be clearly understood that the present disclosure describes how to make and use particular examples, but the principles of the present disclosure are not limited to any details of these examples. Rather, these principles can be applied to many other embodiments based on the teachings of the present disclosure.
In the process business management, a task is usually processed by one person, and a plurality of persons simultaneously process one task, which is called a countersigning task. Such a service requirement is also common, for example, in a request form, in a leader approval process, multiple departments need to be led to sign. In the existing process management system, a set variable needs to be explicitly declared in code when a process is signed, and this way causes that developers often omit setting variables, which leads to process errors.
FIG. 2 is a flow chart illustrating a second method for optimizing a process management system in accordance with an exemplary embodiment.
The method for optimizing the process management system can automatically realize the method for creating the countersign node by inheriting the implementation class of the countersign node, read the configuration and prepare the required conditions before creating the countersign instance, and can avoid the trouble that one set variable needs to be explicitly declared during each development.
As shown in fig. 2, in step S210, it is determined whether the current node is a countersign node; when the node is the countersigning node, entering the next step; otherwise, step S250 is skipped to end this operation.
In step S220, the participant countersignature personnel configured during process modeling are read.
The personnel participating in the countersigning refers to potential handlers and managers of designated countersigning nodes when the business process is subjected to process modeling.
The potential handler of the countersign node refers to the owner of the work item, responsible for completing the task. The potential handler of the countersign node may be proxied by others and may also make changes, i.e., reassigning work items to others. The work item is an operation example of the process node and is a to-be-processed service of a service operator. The service operator acquires the task and completes the task by inquiring the self to-be-processed work item, and then pushes the process instance to the next node to generate a new task for the next service operator.
The manager of the signed node has special authority, such as operation of re-distributing the task and the like.
In step S230, an aggregation variable is automatically generated according to the participant.
In step S240, the countersigning node is activated to generate a countersigning task.
In step S250, the process ends.
The method for optimizing the process management system provided by the embodiment of the invention does not need to explicitly declare the set variable when developing the countersign, and saves the trouble of setting the set variable when developing the countersign node, thereby reducing the error probability of the process.
The process management system provides services to the outside, and simultaneously records access logs of a service system, and log contents are distinguished through IDs of tenants (namely the service systems), so that the access logs are recorded in the same log file in a crossed manner when a plurality of tenants access, one tenant can see the access logs of other tenants when viewing the access logs, and the existing design mode cannot meet the safety of the system and the convenience of the tenants in viewing the logs.
FIG. 3 is a flow chart illustrating a third method for optimizing a process management system in accordance with an exemplary embodiment.
MDC (mapped Diagnostic context) is a function provided by the logback and facilitating log recording under a multi-thread condition, each request in multi-tenant call will have tenant information (such as tenant account (ID), password, etc.), different tenants open different threads for processing, that is, the tenant ID can be set in the MDC context at a place where the log needs to be printed, the output log file name can be, for example, the tenant ID is used as a variable, and the finally output log file will be a log file identified by the tenant ID (tenant ID), thereby achieving the purpose of referring to the log by sub-tenants.
The logback is an open source log component designed by the log4j originator L ogback is currently divided into three modules, a logback-core, logback-class and logback-access.
In an exemplary embodiment, the method for optimizing a process management system may include the steps of setting identification information of a business system requiring a log file to be consulted in an MDC context provided by logback, for example, by a filter or by itself in an Action through a command MDC.put ("userId", DEMAU L T _ USERID), setting a value to the MDC, outputting a corresponding log file named with the identification information of the business system, for example, a value set by a user may be extracted in a configuration file of log4j by [% X { userId } ] and output to the log, as follows
log4j.appender.layout.ConversionPattern=%d[%t]%-5p-%c#%M%x-%m(%r ms)%n[%X{userId}]。
This is illustrated below by means of fig. 3.
As shown in fig. 3, in step S310, the user session based siftingappendix is configured, and the tenant variable tenttid is set.
Wherein the Siftingapplicator is a universal adder in the MDC. It may separate (or filter) logs based on any given real-time attribute. For example, the SiftingAppender can separate log events based on user sessions, so that a separate log file can be established for each tenant.
In step S320, the tenant ID tenttid is acquired from the process management system context.
In step S330, a log output context is set using an API (Application) of the logback.
In step S340, the flow management system outputs a log.
In step S350, the siftingappendix judges whether there is tenntid in the context of the process management system output log; when there is no tentnid, go to step S360; when there is tenntid, it jumps to step S370.
In step S360, other log files are output, and the process proceeds to step S380.
In step S370, a log file named tenttid is output.
In step S380, the process ends.
According to the method for optimizing the process management system, the log file output by the sub-tenant is realized by utilizing the MDC context of the logback, so that the function of looking up the log by the sub-tenant is realized, and the safety of the system and the convenience of user query can be ensured.
Automatic task nodes, such as serviceTask nodes, allow remote web services (webService) to be invoked, where the address of the webService is maintained in the prior art in a flowchart that cannot be changed once it is released for operation within the process management system. At this time, if the address of the webService is changed, the flow chart needs to be modified and a new flow chart needs to be issued into the flow management system, which may cause the running flow to fail to find the address of the webService, thereby causing the running flow to be interrupted.
FIG. 4 is a flow chart illustrating a fourth method for optimizing a process management system in accordance with an exemplary embodiment.
As shown in fig. 4, in step S410, when configuring the flowchart, the address of the network service called by the automatic task node is mapped to a unique identifier (unique ID).
In step S420, a mapping table of the unique identifier and the address of the called network service is configured.
In this embodiment, a database table mapping manner is adopted, a unique ID is set when the serviceTask node configures an address of a called network service, the ID is consistent with a primary key of the mapping table in the database table, and the primary key in the mapping table is matched with the address of the real called network service.
In step S430, when the flowchart is released and the flow is executed, the automatic task node queries the address of the called network service according to the unique identifier and the mapping table.
And loading the content in the mapping table into a memory when the flow management system is started. And when the serviceTask node is executed, acquiring the real address of the called network service from the memory according to the configured unique ID.
With continued reference to fig. 4, in an exemplary embodiment, the method for optimizing a process management system may further include step S440, wherein, in step S440, when the system is migrated, the automatic task node calls an address change of the web service.
With continued reference to fig. 4, in an exemplary embodiment, the method for optimizing a process management system may further include step S450, wherein, in step S450, an address of the corresponding invoked network service in the mapping table is modified.
If the address of the network service called by the serviceTask node changes, only the corresponding content of the mapping table in the database needs to be modified without modifying the flow chart, and a new flow chart does not need to be issued into the flow management system, and the running flow is not influenced.
The method for optimizing the process management system provided by the embodiment of the invention maintains the webService address by using the database table mapping mode, facilitates the operation and maintenance of the system and reduces the influence on the process in operation caused by the webService address migration.
There are three participants in system development, which are: a process management system, a business system (tenant), and a process designer. The process management system provides a process engine which is responsible for analyzing the process diagram, starting, completing, inquiring and the like of the process; the service system calls the service issued by the flow management system to complete the service flow; the process designer is responsible for modeling the business system.
In this embodiment, an activti Eclipse process designer can be used to design an activti process, and a standard BPMN2.0 process definition file is used to describe the definition of a workflow, the BPMN2.0 process definition file is a file in the format XM L which conforms to the industry standard, the file contains a flow sequence of a process, step nodes and related process elements such as users, variable information and the like on each node, and the BPMN2.0XM L process definition file also contains information such as the display positions of each process element in the definition, so that the process definition file can be displayed or edited in a graphical manner.
The process modeling needs to set the authority of the process task, such as an executor of the task, an execution role, a form path of the task, and the like according to the needs of a business system, and in the prior art, all the attributes need to be manually input into a process designer, so that the efficiency is low and errors are easy to occur.
FIG. 5 is a flow chart illustrating a fifth method for optimizing a process management system in accordance with an exemplary embodiment.
As shown in fig. 5, in step S510, the process designer provided by the process management system sends a request for obtaining service information to a corresponding service system using a preset protocol.
The process designer is used for process modeling, and business information such as users, roles and forms of a business system (tenant) is needed during process modeling, so that the data can be completely provided by the business system in a service mode.
In this embodiment, the process designer may specify to use a rest protocol and a preset data format (for example, json) to send a request for acquiring service information to the service system.
In step S520, the process designer receives the service information in the preset data format returned by the service system.
And after receiving the request, the service system issues the service by using a rest protocol and returns the service information in a specified preset data format (such as json).
The process designer takes the data in the json format and displays the data on a page for a developer to select, so that the trouble of manual entry can be saved, the error probability is reduced, and the process modeling efficiency is improved.
If a BPMN2.0 flow definition XM L file already exists in the project, double-clicking on the Eclipse plug-in automatically generates a flow visualization compilation file with the suffix of Activiti.
With continued reference to FIG. 5, in an exemplary embodiment, the method for optimizing a process management system can further include step S530, wherein in step S530 the process designer issues a process flow to the process management system.
After the process definition file is designed, the following API code can be used to obtain the reposoryservice, and the process definition file is deployed to the actirti process engine by using the service.
When the Service objects are obtained, the Service objects can be used to complete the operation of various Activiti process engines. In practical application, various services are required to be comprehensively used for deploying the flow definition, starting a flow instance, getting, querying and completing user tasks, querying flow operation history records and other main functions of the Activiti flow engine.
According to the method for optimizing the process management system, the process designer and the business system are associated through the rest service, so that the development efficiency is improved, the process modeling efficiency is improved, and the error rate of the process modeling is reduced.
