SYNOPSIS

  my $client = Activiti::Rest::Client->new(
    url => 'http://kermit:kermit@localhost:8080/activiti-rest/service'
  );

  my $res = $client->process_definitions;

  die("no parsed content") unless $res->has_parsed_content;

  my $pdefs = $res->parsed_content;

  my @ids = map { $_->{id} } @{ $pdefs->{data} };
  for my $id(@ids){
    print Dumper($client->process_definition(processDefinitionId => $id)->parsed_content);
  }

CONSTRUCTOR parameters

url
