jBPM editing different tools

[tovi]

I am new to jBpm, and a little bit confused about the different editing tools for creating processes.

I was reading some jboss documentation and also the e-book "jbpm5 Developer Guide", but still not clear:

After I deploy the jbpm installation (by runnning ant start.demo) I can:

1. create a new process from the web portal (localhost:8080/jbpm-console)

2. Create a new process from the Eclipse that is opened

3. according to the documentation there should be also drools-guvnor editor(could not open it. when I press localhost:8080/drools-guvnor nothing is opened).

4. according to the documentation there should be also other tools.

WELL, as I said, totally confused... what should be my starting point??

looks like you're runing jbpm 6 while still reading documentation and the book for jbpm 5 which is different in lot areas - there is no guvnor anly longer as separate application. I would say that start with web designer that can be found in jbpm console. You should be able to do most of the process modeling work with it.

Then if you need to do some development work then you might get the project out of jbpm console (using git integration) and import it into eclipse and continue working with it there. Once done you can push your changes back to jbpm console, again via git integration.
