Contains the glue code for opening browser-based GLSP diagrams in an Eclipse IDE Editor
For details on building the project, please see both README files in the directories client and server.
The workflow diagram is a consistent example provided by all GLSP components. The example implements a simple flow chart diagram editor with different types of nodes and edges (see screenshot below). The example can be used to try out different GLSP features, as well as several available integrations with IDE platforms (Theia, VSCode, Eclipse, Standalone). As the example is fully open source, you can also use it as a blueprint for a custom implementation of a GLSP diagram editor. See our project website for an overview of the workflow example and all components implementing it.

First, you need to build both the client and the server (see instructions on building the client and building the server). Then, import the following Eclipse plug-in projects into your Eclipse IDE workspace:
server/plugins/org.eclipse.glsp.ide.editorserver/example/org.eclipse.glsp.ide.workflow.editorserver/releng/org.eclipse.glsp.ide.releng.target
Now open the server/releng/org.eclipse.glsp.ide.releng.target/r2020-09.target target platform definition and set it as your target platform.
Now, you can start an Eclipse Application containing the example plug-in project for the workflow editor, org.eclipse.glsp.ide.workflow.editor, e.g. using the WorkflowEditor.launch launch configuration provided in that project.
The Workflow Diagram Editor is registered for any .wf files. You can use the provided example .wf file from: server/example/runtime/test
