Endpoints

\n

Currently the Symbio-Graphic-Service provides two endpoints:

\n
    \n
  1. \nGET\n or \nPOST\n on \nCheckConnection\n with one parameter \nname\n or with a simple request JSON.\n
    2. \n
  2. \nPOST\n on \nCalculateLayout\n with a request JSON (see chapter \nThe request JSON\n below).\n
    3. \n
\n

Check the HTTP connection

\n\n

Calculate a layout

\n\n

The service expects the request as a JSON file and delivers the graphic as an HTML or SVG file.

\n

The Request JSON

\n\n

For details (internal structure of the Request JSON) see Request JSON.

\n

The result

\n

According to the requested calculation type (cxn or flow) the result can be

\n\n

The resulting connection path

\n

The connection path represents a single route from a source node to a target node. This route hast at least a start point (2D coordinates) and an end point (2D coordinates) and can have up to four additional interpolation points (each with 2D coordinates). The sections of the path are always orthogonal (either exact vertical or exact horizontal).

\n

The result graph

\n

The layed out (and rendered) graphic (directed graph), that is returned as a result of the service request, may contain several nodes (similar/comparable to BPMN elements), that can be of type:

\n\n

BPMN sub-process and call activity

\n

BPMN sub-processes can accure with different types.

\n

For details (about BPMN events and how they are used by the Symbio-Graphic-Service) see document BPMN sub-processes and call activities.

\n

BPMN tasks

\n

BPMN tasks can accure with different types and with different markers.

\n

For details (about BPMN tasks and how they are used by the Symbio-Graphic-Service) see document BPMN tasks.

\n

BPMN events

\n

BPMN events can occur at different locations, with different continuations and with different types.

\n

For details (about BPMN sub processes and how they are used by the Symbio-Graphic-Service) see document BPMN events.

\n

BPMN gateways

\n

BPMN gateways can occur with different types.

\n

For details (about BPMN gateways and how they are used by the Symbio-Graphic-Service) see document BPMN events.

\n

BPMN pools and lanes

\n

BPMN pools and lanes can represent different contexts.
