0.5.0

Release date - mid-October 2019

Main themes of the release

• Support for embedded subprocess

• GraphQL subscription for both domain and technical data types (e.g. process instances, user tasks)

• Quarkus extension has moved from JSON be to JACKSON for JSON marshalling … so in case you use kogito-maven-plugin directly you most likely need to update dependencies - see kogito-examples

• Initial version for security enabled REST endpoints for processes - it currently relies on manual XML editing as there is no support in tooling for it

• published version of VSCode editors for BPMN and DMN

• BPMN/DMN chrome extension alpha
