spiff-arena

SpiffArena is a low(ish)-code software development platform for building, running, and monitoring executable diagrams. It is intended to support Citizen Developers and to enhance their ability to contribute to the software development process. Using tools that look a lot like flow-charts and spreadsheets, it is possible to capture complex rules in a way that everyone in your organization can see, understand, and directly executable.

Please visit the SpiffWorkflow website for a Getting Started Guide to see how to run SpiffArena locally and try it out. There are also additional articles, videos, and tutorials about SpiffArena and its components, including SpiffWorkflow, Service Connectors, and BPMN.js extensions.

Contributing

This is a monorepo based on git subtrees that pulls together various spiffworkflow-related projects. Feel free to ignore that and drop us a pull request. If you need to push back from the monorepo to one of the individual repos, here's an example command (and find other scripts we use in the bin directory):

git subtree push --prefix=spiffworkflow-frontend git@github.com:sartography/spiffworkflow-frontend.git add_md_file

Setup

poetry install

Run tests

./bin/run_pyl

Requires at root:

• .darglint
• .flake8
• .pre-commit-config.yaml
• pyproject.toml

Run cypress automated browser tests

Get the app running so you can access the frontend at http://localhost:7001 in your browser.

First install nodejs, ideally the version in .tool-versions (but likely other versions will work).

Then:

cd spiffworkflow-frontend
npm install
./bin/run_cypress_tests_locally
