This repository contains samples that demonstrate various capabilities of Temporal using the Java SDK.
It contains two modules:
- Core: showcases many different SDK features.
- SpringBoot: showcases SpringBoot autoconfig integration.
- SpringBoot Basic: Minimal sample showing SpringBoot autoconfig integration without any extra external dependencies.
- Java 1.8+ for build and runtime of core samples
- Java 1.8+ for build and runtime of SpringBoot samples when using SpringBoot 2
- Java 1.17+ for build and runtime of Spring Boot samples when using SpringBoot 3
- Local Temporal Server, easiest to get started would be using Temporal CLI. For more options see docs here.
-
Clone this repository:
git clone https://github.com/temporalio/samples-java cd samples-java -
Build and run Tests
./gradlew build
You can run both "Core" and "SpringBoot" samples from the main samples project directory. Details on how to run each sample can be found in following two sections. To skip to SpringBoot samples click here.
See the README.md file in each main sample directory for cut/paste Gradle command to run specific example.
-
Hello: This sample includes a number of individual Workflows that can be executed independently. Each one demonstrates something specific.
- HelloAccumulator: Demonstrates a Workflow Definition that accumulates signals and continues as new.
- HelloActivity: Demonstrates a Workflow Definition that executes a single Activity.

Promise.allOf. - HelloAsyncActivityCompletion: Demonstrates how to complete an Activity Execution asynchronously.
- HelloAsyncLambda: Demonstrates how to execute part of a Workflow asynchronously in a separate task (thread).
- HelloCancellationScope: Demonstrates how to explicitly cancel parts of a Workflow Execution.
- HelloCancellationScopeWithTimer: Demonstrates how to cancel activity when workflow timer fires and complete execution. This can prefered over using workflow run/execution timeouts.
- HelloDetachedCancellationScope: Demonstrates how to execute 8000 cleanup code after a Workflow Execution has been explicitly cancelled.

DynamicWorkflowandDynamicActivityinterfaces. - HelloEagerWorkflowStart: Demonstrates the use of a eager workflow start.

- HelloException: Demonstrates how to handle exception propagation and wrapping.
- HelloLocalActivity: Demonstrates the use of a Local Activity.
- HelloPolymorphicActivity: Demonstrates Activity Definitions that extend a common interface.
- HelloQuery: Demonstrates how to Query the state of a Workflow Execution.
- HelloSchedules: Demonstrates how to create and interact with a Schedule.
- HelloSignal: Demonstrates how to send and handle a Signal.
- HelloSaga: Demonstrates how to use the SAGA feature.
- HelloSearchAttributes: Demonstrates how to add custom Search Attributes to Workflow Executions.
- HelloSideEffect**: Demonstrates how to implement a Side Effect.
- HelloUpdate: Demonstrates how to create and interact with an Update.
- HelloDelayedStart: Demonstrates how to use delayed start config option when starting a Workflow Executions.
- HelloSignalWithTimer: Demonstrates how to use collect signals for certain amount of time and then process last one.
- HelloWorkflowTimer: Demonstrates how we can use workflow timer to restrict duration of workflow execution instead of workflow run/execution timeouts.
- Auto-Heartbeating: Demonstrates use of Auto-heartbeating utility via activity interceptor.
- HelloSignalWithStartAndWorkflowInit: Demonstrates how WorkflowInit can be useful with SignalWithStart to initialize workflow variables.
-
File Processing Sample: Demonstrates how to route tasks to specific Workers. This sample has a set of Activities that download a file, processes it, and uploads the result to a destination. Any Worker can execute the first Activity. However, the second and third Activities must be executed on the same host as the first one.
-
Booking SAGA: Demonstrates Temporals take on the Camunda BPMN "trip booking" example.
-
Synchronous Booking SAGA: Demonstrates low latency SAGA with potentially long compensations.
-
Money Transfer: Demonstrates the use of a dedicated Activity Worker.
-
Money Batch: Demonstrates a situation where a single deposit should be initiated for multiple withdrawals. For example, a seller might want to be paid once per fixed number of transactions. This sample can be easily extended to perform a payment based on more complex criteria, such as at a specific time or an accumulated amount. The sample also demonstrates how to Signal the Workflow when it executes (Signal with start). If the Workflow is already executing, it just receives the Signal. If it is not executing, then the Workflow executes first, and then the Signal is delivered to it. Signal with start is a "lazy" way to execute Workflows when Signaling them.
-
Domain-Specific-Language - Define sequence of steps in JSON: Demonstrates using domain specific language (DSL) defined in JSON to specify sequence of steps to be performed in our workflow.
-
Polling Services: Recommended implementation of an activity that needs to periodically poll an external resource waiting its successful completion
-
Heartbeating Activity Batch: Batch job implementation using a heartbeating activity.
-

-
Sliding Window Batch: A batch implementation that maintains a configured number of child workflows during processing.
-
Safe Message Passing: Safely handling concurrent updates and signals messages.
-

These samples use SpringBoot 2 by default. To switch to using SpringBoot 3 look at the gradle.properties file and follow simple instructions there.
-
Start SpringBoot from main repo dir:
./gradlew :springboot:bootRun
To run the basic sample run
./gradlew :springboot-basic:bootRun

Navigate to localhost:3030
-
Select which sample you want to run
