Like Spring Initializr, but for Operaton.\n\n## What It Generates\n\n| Project Type | Description |\n|-------------|-------------|\n| **Process Application** | Spring Boot application embedding the Operaton engine; skeleton BPMN + Java delegate stub |\n| **Process Archive** | Engine-agnostic WAR/JAR for deployment to a Standalone Engine or Tomcat |\n\n**Build systems:** Maven · Gradle (Groovy DSL) · Gradle (Kotlin DSL)\n\nEvery generated project:\n- Compiles and starts on first run — no manual configuration required\n- Targets the current stable Operaton release (auto-updated via Renovate)\n- Includes a GitHub Actions CI/CD skeleton that passes green on first push\n- Propagates Group ID, Artifact ID, and project name into BPMN process IDs, Java packages, and `spring.application.name`\n- Includes a purposeful README with next-step instructions and troubleshooting\n\n## Access Channels\n\n**Web UI** — `start.operaton.org`\n\nBrowser-based generator with a project gallery (Explorer path) and a configuration form (Practitioner path). Live file tree preview, IDE deep-links, shareable config URLs.\n\n**CLI**\n```bash\nnpx operaton-starter \\\n  --groupId com.example \\\n  --artifactId my-process \\\n  --projectName \"My Process\" \\\n  --projectType PROCESS_APPLICATION \\\n  --buildSystem GRADLE_KOTLIN \\\n  \u003e my-process.zip\n```\n\n**curl**\n```bash\ncurl -X POST https://start.operaton.org/api/v1/generate \\\n  -H \"Content-Type: application/json\" \\\n  -d '{\"projectType\":\"PROCESS_APPLICATION\",\"buildSystem\":\"MAVEN\",\"groupId\":\"com.example\",\"artifactId\":\"my-process\",\"projectName\":\"My Process\",\"javaVersion\":17}' \\\n  -o my-process.zip\n```\n\n**MCP** — `operaton-starter-mcp` npm package\n\nExposes a `generate_project` tool callable by AI assistants (Claude, GitHub Copilot, Cursor) during development conversations.\n\n## Self-Hosting\n\nRun your own instance with Docker:\n\n```bash\ndocker run -p 8080:8080 \\\n  -e STARTER_DEFAULTS_GROUP_ID=com.myorg \\\n  docker.io/operaton/operaton-starter:latest\n```\n\nThe image starts with zero external network calls. All configuration is via environment variables.\n\n| Variable | Description |\n|----------|-------------|\n| `STARTER_DEFAULTS_GROUP_ID` | Pre-fills the Group ID field |\n| `STARTER_DEFAULTS_MAVEN_REGISTRY` | Maven repository URL for generated projects |\n| `STARTER_DEFAULTS_OPERATON_VERSION` | Pin Operaton version (self-hosted only) |\n| `STARTER_CORS_ALLOWED_ORIGINS` | Comma-separated CORS allowlist for `/api/**` |\n\n### Self-Hosting with MCP\n\nConnect the `operaton-starter-mcp` AI tool to your private instance so AI assistants generate projects against your internal deployment.\n\n**Build and start the server:**\n\n```bash\n# 1. Build the fat JAR (required before docker build)\n./mvnw verify -pl starter-templates,starter-server -am\n\n# 2. Build the Docker image\ndocker build -t operaton-starter:local .\n\n# 3. Start the server\ndocker run -p 8080:8080 operaton-starter:local\n```\n\nOr with docker compose (development):\n\n```bash\n./mvnw verify -pl starter-templates,starter-server -am\ndocker compose -f docker-compose.dev.yml up\n```\n\n**Configure Claude Desktop** (`~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`):\n\n```json\n{\n  \"mcpServers\": {\n    \"operaton-starter\": {\n      \"command\": \"npx\",\n      \"args\": [\"-y\", \"operaton-starter-mcp\"],\n      \"env\": {\n        \"OPERATON_STARTER_URL\": \"http://localhost:8080\"\n      }\n    }\n  }\n}\n```\n\n**Configure VS Code / GitHub Copilot** (`.vscode/mcp.json` or user settings):\n\n```json\n{\n  \"servers\": {\n    \"operaton-starter\": {\n      \"command\": \"npx\",\n      \"args\": [\"-y\", \"operaton-starter-mcp\"],\n      \"env\": {\n        \"OPERATON_STARTER_URL\": \"http://localhost:8080\"\n      }\n    }\n  }\n}\n```\n\nThe `OPERATON_STARTER_URL` variable tells the MCP package which backend to call. Omitting it falls back to `https://start.operaton.org`.\n\n## Architecture\n\noperaton-starter is a 6-module Maven monorepo:\n\n```\noperaton-starter/\n├── starter-templates/   Pure-Java generation engine (zero Spring dependency)\n├── starter-server/      Spring Boot REST API\n├── starter-archetypes/  GenerationClient interface + mvn archetype:generate integration\n├── starter-web/         Vue 3 SPA\n├── starter-mcp/         MCP npm package (operaton-starter-mcp)\n└── starter-cli/         CLI npm package (operaton-starter)\n```\n\nAll channels invoke the same `GenerationEngine.generate(ProjectConfig) → byte[]` — identical output guaranteed by a 6-combination CI test matrix (2 project types × 3 build systems).\n\nSee [`docs/arc42/`](docs/arc42/) for full architecture documentation.\n\n## Development\n\nSee [CONTRIBUTING.md](CONTRIBUTING.md) for setup instructions and contribution guidelines.\n\n## Releasing\n\nSee [`docs/release.md`](docs/release.md) for the release procedure, required GitHub Actions secrets, and troubleshooting guide.\n\n## License\n\nApache 2.0\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Foperaton%2Foperaton-starter","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Foperaton%2Foperaton-starter","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Foperaton%2Foperaton-starter/lists"}
