Cloverleaf wizard
The wizard is a browser-based user experience that walks you through a workflow. This workflow creates an interface from scratch or using existing BOX (Buildable Object eXchange) templates.
The wizard is installed as part of Cloverleaf, with all required HTML5 resources. It is accessed by a standard URL on the Cloverleaf host server.
A Cloverleaf thread is referred to as a “system” in the wizard.
Objects that are not supported by the wizard editor, such as translations, are included in the project and deployed with the project.
A project can be created or edited in the wizard configuration.
- Data formats
- Routing rules
- Lookup tables
- Global variables
- Translations
Cloverleaf BOXes that are transferred to the remote host server are deployed using the standard Cloverleaf BOX management features.The user interface is browser-based. Wizard projects are created that contain artifacts such as:
Server interface
The user interface is browser-based. Wizard projects are created thatThe server side is a RESTful interface whose data format is JSON. See Cloverleaf API.
If the server RESTful API is disabled, then the wizard prompts an error message, indicating the wizard services were disabled by the administrator.
There is no effect on performance of the engine at runtime; however, you may require additional disk storage for Cloverleaf history artifacts.
An active projects' objects are stored in a Cloverleaf site. hcirootcopy captures these directories on system upgrades.
When a wizard project is packaged, the server stores Cloverleaf BOXes that contain all the artifacts of the defined interface at $HCIROOT/box.
Additional functions
With lookup tables, you can create, edit, or view Cloverleaf lookup tables, with an additional option to test the table configuration.
Global variables can be created, edited, or deleted.
Each option, project, system, data format, route, lookup table, and translation has context training available. This is an option on the main page.
