Workflow UI

This page is intended for developers only!

TODO: Develop some type of UI for OIE

Basic Interface

  1. List of Routes
    • Properties of the route
    • Processes existing of that route
    • Perhaps some statistics: frequency, failures, completions
    • Create a process (upload / form)
  2. List of Processes
    • Mine vs. All Visible
    • Process log & messages
  3. Possibly -
    • Ability to at least list / upload / delete
      • Tables
      • Formats
      • Templates
    • Editing would be nice, but that could be performed externally. But everything that is external raises the barrier to entry to novice users.

Workflow designer

Beyond a basic interface what is really needed is a workflow designer. BIE provided this in a web-interface. This interface interprets and generates BPML based upon a block structure diagram and allows parameters of actions to be specified.

For Inspiration

Attached to this page are some images of closed-source interfaces that exist as well as screenshots from BIE upon with OIE was conceptually based.
