To help you get up to speed with developing applications that use the OpenText Thrust Services APIs, we have created a demo application.
This demo application handles Contract Approvals and demonstrates how to consume several of the services. The following Thrust Services are used:
- Content Storage Service (CSS) for uploading and storing of documents,
- Content Metadata Service (CMS) for storing document metadata,
- Decision Service for configuring business rules,
- Viewer Service for viewing documents,
- Risk Guard Service for document analysis, and
- Workflow Service for executing the contract approval process.
A complete and detailed tutorial is available in which we explain step by step how to:
- sign up for an OpenText Developer trial account,
- setup your development environment with VS Code and Node.js,
- configure and test your developer organization connection profile,
- create a project for the contract approval application,
- create several models, including a namespace, folder, file, and trait definitions,
- create application groups,
- model-specific application ACLs,
- model a workflow to handle the approval business logic,
- deploy the application in your development tenant,
- review the code and understand the different parts via detailed explanations,
- test the application and, as a bonus,
- use the OCP command line tool to create and deploy an application package from your project and use that in a CI/CD pipeline for your automated testing.
