configure the redirect path into the camunda app

[jangalinski]

I am getting logged in a redirected to the dashboard/welcome page. Depending on my dev-use-case I would like to save a mouse click and redirect into tasklist or process view.

Does it happen if you access the root of the process application? You might want to access the cockpit dashboard directly - so http://localhost:8080/camunda/app/cockpit/#/dashboard right?

The filter is not doing any redirecting at all, not sure this feature is about...

So my proposal would be - create two bookmarks in your browser for tasklist and cockpit and go for it...

The idea would be to disable the default camunda-spring-boot redirect and replace it with a customizable redirect deeper into the app.

Reason: As dev I am working on a particular problem (starting and checking process instances, verifying user tasks, analyzing dmn results, ...). I code, restart my service and go back to the cockpit many times per day. Now I do not have to enter my credentials anymore, but still have to navigate.

Take a look for example at what we did in the lumberghini app:

https://github.com/holunda-io/lumberghini/blob/master/src/main/kotlin/camunda/login/UserCreationAndLoginServlet.kt#L64

there we even linked directly into a particular filter inside the tasklist.

So in an ideal world:

• disable redirect for camunda-starter,
• register a WebMvcConfigurer that either: a) redirects to a specified path (yml) b) uses a registered redirection-bean I can provide and applies the redirect to the value it returns.

Not a "MUST" requirement, of course, but nice to have and easy to build (as I already have the code here)
