This is a React component based on bpmn.io that allows you to use a fully functional modeler for BPMN and DMN in your browser application. It has lots of configuration options and offers these features:
- Full support for BPMN and DMN
- Embedded XML editor
- Easily import element templates
- Full support for using bpmn.io plugins
- Access to all bpmn.io and additional events to integrate it more easily into your application
- Exposes the complete bpmn.io API
- Includes type definitions for many of the undocumented features and endpoints of bpmn.io
- TypeScript support
Important
There is a known issue with the latest version of min-dash
(read about
it here).
To fix this, you can force the version of min-dash to below 4.2 in your package.json or configure your bundler
to also include .cjs and/or .mjs files.

- Add this dependency to your application:
yarn add @miragon/camunda-web-modeler
- Include it in your application:
import {
BpmnModeler,
CustomBpmnJsModeler,
Event,
isContentSavedEvent
} from "@miragon/camunda-web-modeler";
import React, { useCallback, useMemo, useRef, useState } from 'react';
import './App.css';
const App: React.FC = () => {
const modelerRef = useRef<CustomBpmnJsModeler>();
const [xml, setXml] = useState<string>(BPMN);
const onEvent = useCallback(async (event: Event<any>) => {
if (isContentSavedEvent(event)) {
setXml(event.data.xml);
return;
}
}, []);
/**

const modelerTabOptions = useMemo(() => ({
modelerOptions: {
refs: [modelerRef]
}
}), []);
return (
<div style = {

const BPMN = /* ... */;- Include your BPMN in the last line and run the application!
To see all options available, you can use this example. Remember that it's important to wrap all options and callbacks
that are passed into the component using useMemo() and useCallback(). Else you will have lots of additional render
cycles that can lead to bugs that are difficult to debug.
Using the bpmnJsOptions, you can pass any options that you would normally pass into bpmn.io. The component will merge
these with its own options and use it to create the modeler instance.

const BPMN = /* .... */;Usage with DMN is essentially the same. You just have to use the <DmnModeler> component instead. The API is very
consistent between the two components.
You can find more examples in our examples repository camunda-web-modeler-examples.
You can also use the modeler without npm. However, you should note that this support is only experimental and not thoroughly tested.
