Environment variables offer a way to make configuration data available at the start of a BPMN process execution.
They are the same for all running process instances. They can be defined by adding a member variable with
the Spring-Framework @Value annotation to the configuration class TutorialConfig. The value of the annotation uses
the ${..} notation and follows the form ${some.property:defaultValue}, where each dot in the property name corresponds
to an underscore in the equivalent environment variable. Environment variables are always written upper-case.
The property some.property therefore corresponds to the environment variable SOME_PROPERTY.
The DSF provides a feature to automatically generate documentation of environment variables during the Maven build process.
You can use the @ProcessDocumentation annotation to automatically generate Markdown documentation for all fields with this annotation.
You simply have to add dsf-tools-documentation-generator as a maven plugin.
You can take a look at the pom.xml for the tutorial-process submodule to see how you can add it to your own project.
Keep in mind to point the <workingPackage> field to the package you want documentation for.
