SOA: Identificar las funcionalidades de Openbravo (SOAP, REST endpoints) que vamos a exponer como servicios desde (Service Proxy) WSO2 ESB, que posteriormente vamos a consumir desde la View Layer, Liferay Portal en este caso (mashup).

1. For example, when you will create an order in OpenBravo, the services identified will be: 1.  ADSequence 2.  DocumentType 3.  BusinessPartner 4.  BusinessPartnerLocation 5.  Warehouse 6.  PrincingList 7.  FinancialMgmtPaymentTerm 8.  Order 9.  OrderLine

Mediación: Aquellas funcionalidades identificadas y gracias a WSO2 ESB crearemos una serie de “Service Proxies” que nos permitirán acceder a las funcionalidades usando SOAP y/o REST. Aprovecharemos que Openbravo expone sus funcionalidades a través de DAL (Data Access Layer) que son una serie de servicios REST con mensajes POX.

2. Further information here: http://docs.wso2.org/display/ESB470/Adding+a+Proxy+Service#AddingaProxyService-PublishWSDLOptions You can check existing (DAL) Openbravo REST services here: http://openia.chakray.com/openbravo/ws/dal

Gobernar: Una vez “mediados”, podemos aplicar nuevas características como: seguridad, tracing, monitoring, versioning, QoS, KPI, en general, cualquier característica relacionada a BAM.

3. The new WSDL for the mediated services can be reviewed here: http://api.bizlife.org/services/proxy_openbravo?wsdl Test it with soapUI.

2. Exponer funcionalidades Openbravo ERP como Servicios

Mashup (View Layer): Una aplicación completa tendrá un front-end, en este caso, usaremos Liferay Portal para hacer mashup. Esto quiere decir que únicamente el Portal servirá para hacer presentación.

Openia CRM es un módulo de Openbravo. Este módulo extiende las funcionalidades de Openbravo relacionado a CRM.

1. Openia CRM is an Openbravo module and can be downloaded as module (*.obx) or as a Virtual Machine previously installed with Openbravo. To know which tables have been created follow these steps: 1.  Identify the DB prefix for this new module to be installed.

You can see it in Openbravo > Application Dictionary > Module > click on the module of your interest

2.  Open this URL in a browser: http://${OPENBRAVO-HOSTNAME}/openbravo/ws/dal

3.  The new Tables or Entities exposed as Data Layer (REST and XML) begin with DB prefix of your module installed.

Una vez tengas las “Tablas o Entidades”, entonces ahora tu podrías crear cualquier webapps invocando estos servicios (entidades) o también tu podrías “orquestar” usando Bonita BPM.

2. In the VM you can see a simple Process created with Bonita Studio calling to these new Tables or Entities. Already exist a Bonita Connector to make calls to any REST / XML services, you just use it. Remember, you are free to use any approach to orchestration of services, in this case, for Open CRM you have these Entitites (data services): 1.  opcrm_activity 2.  opcrm_cases 3.  opcrm_cases_access 4.  opcrm_config 5.  opcrm_documents 6.  opcrm_guest 7.  opcrm_invoice 8.  opcrm_lead_access 9.  opcrm_lead_activity 10.  opcrm_opp_access 11.  opcrm_opportunities 12.  opcrm_statusfilter 13.  opcrm_statusfilter_trl

3. Exponer funcionalidades Openia CRM como Servicios

Usando Bonita Studio tu puedes orquestar cualquier proceso y servicios de negocio de Openbravo. Tu puedes crear nuevos Bonita Connectors o usar existentes para invocar los servicios ya expuestos desde WSO2 ESB.

1. A Bonita Connector is a simple Java client callling these services but that we can run it in workflow engine take advange of libraries of Bonita BPM. We have attached both projects: •  Java client to create order. •  Simple process calling our

CreateOrder Connector for Bonita BPM.

Desplegar los procesos de negocio diseñados desde Bonita Studio a Bonita Workflow Engine.

2. Check your deployed process. From Bonita User Experience Portal execute your deployed process. If all is OK, you will see a new Order created in OpenBravo side.

Ahora tu tienes un proceso de negocio corriendo en tu Workflow Engine. Es posible interactuar con él desde Bonita BPM Portal (intranet), pero también es posible acceder a él desde la View Layer (Liferay Portal) usando herramientas como BonitaLife o crear la tuya propia. BonitaLife es un grupo de portlets de Liferay que interactúan con los procesos de negocio y con el motor de workflow de Bonita a través del API de Bonita.

3. Install Liferay Portal and deploy BonitaLife. BonitaLife can be downloaded from Liferay Marketplace: http://www.liferay.com/marketplace/-/mp/application/26827133 Further information on BonitaLife can be found here: http://www.bonitalife.org/requerimientos-e-instalacion

4. Orquestación de procesos y servicios

Conocer el estado de nuestra plataforma o sistemas, nosotros deberíamos consultar la fuente de información. En este caso, nosotros tenemos la fuente principal de información y está en WSO2 ESB, porque es nuestro middleware todo el flujo de información pasa por aquí ya que hacemos “mediación”.

1. In the VM, we have configured some REST services in WSO2 ESB. These services are registered as Pass Through Proxies and WSO2 ESB stores information about of its use and performance. By default, WSO2 ESB has a simple dashboard to review or analyse this information. But if you want more sophisticated functionality, then we recommend the use of any product for creating dashboards or reports as Pentaho, Jasper Report, etc. WSO2 also has a product for creating dashboards and reports. IT is WSO2 User Engagement Server. But if you still require creating complex reports, KPIs and analyze information, you could use WSO2 BAM for this.

5. Business Activity Monitoring con WSO2 BAM

Para crear una regla de negocio es necesario contar con una herramienta como WSO2 Business rule Server (WSO2 BRS) que incluya un motor como Drools, en este caso, WSO2 BRS provee de funcionalidades adecuadas para una fácil integración con WSO2 ESB. Podemos acceder a la gran mayoría de funcionalidades de WSO2 BRS gracias a la exposición de su API.

1. In the VM, we have installed WSO2 BRS and from Bonita BPM could call any business rules exposed as service using Bonita SOAP Connector. If we want metering how many times this service was called, we could create a webservice proxy in WSO2 ESB and with WSO2 BAM could see statistical information about it. The best advantage of WSO2 BRS is that WSO2 exposes any business rule as service and become a complete API just for the Management of business rules for our Enterprise.

6. Integración WSO2 Business Rules Server

1.  Start login process 2.  Pass login process to Bonita 3.  Bonita passes login process 4.  OB passes login process 5.  WSO2IS sends response 6.  OB redirects response 7.  Bonita redirects response 8.  Liferay receive response

Authentication in Openbravo

Desplegar WSO2 Identity Server (WSO2 IS), crear usuarios, roles, grupos, …

1. In the VM, WSO2 IS has already been deployed.

2. In the VM, LDAP Authentication and User syncronization have already been configured and tested.

3. Right now this functionality is available in Bonita BPM Teamwork version (http://www.bonitasoft.com/products/product-comparison). In the VM, we have created a set of users in Bonita and also in WSO2 IS.

4. Follow this instructions () to configure LDAP Authentication and User syncronization of OpenBravo and embedded LDAP of WSO2 IS. http://forge.openbravo.com/plugins/mwiki/index.php/LDAP

Verifique el proceso de autenticación y de sincronización de usuarios en todo el ecosistema.
