Announcing c8volt: A New CLI Tool for Camunda 8

c8volt Logo

I’m excited to introduce c8volt, a new command-line interface (CLI) for interacting with Camunda 8.  Yet Another Camunda 8 CLI Tool?
No, c8volt is different. Its design and development focus on operational effectiveness, ensuring that done is done. 

Why c8volt? Done is Done

Camunda 8 Operations CLI for workflows that must actually finish.

If an action needs retries, waiting, tree traversal, state checks, or cleanup before it is truly finished, c8volt should do that work for you instead of making you script the last mile yourself.

c8volt is not just a CRUD shell around Camunda 8 APIs. It is a CLI shaped around operational intent:

  • start a process and confirm it is really active
  • cancel a child process by finding the root that must actually be cancelled
  • delete a process instance family thoroughly, not partially
  • deploy BPMN models and use them immediately
  • ...and more!

c8volt focuses on real operational use cases while still providing the familiar CLI functionality such as standard CRUD commands on various resources. You can find more information about c8volt on it's official documentation page c8volt.info or directly on GitHub.
