Hello Asier, "ruote as a server" best incarnation is currently : http://github.com/kennethkalmer/ruote-kit the 'client' application communicate with it over HTTP. Usually it's JSON over HTTP. Launching a flow implies POSTing a launchitem encoded as JSON to a /processes resource. While browsing the workitems currently available for a participant is done by GETting /workitems/participant_name. > Unfortunately we don't work with Ruby, we do Java, Python, .NET and > some VB6, but no Ruby, but I've readed that with JRuby we can access > to ruote The Abstra.cc guys are running a ruote-kit equivalent in JRuby. From it they can access various Java libraries directly and other applications can talk over HTTP to the application. (Abstra.cc please correct me if I'm wrong). I've seen other people communicating with remote ruote via DRB (some kind of Ruby RMI). > but, f.i. can I add users to a role via a Java application > with JRuby? Ruote doesn't do any user/role management. It only has some participant name/regex to participant implementation mapping.
