Having to provide the full path for the bpmn file is ugly

[chevdor]

bpmn.createUnmanagedProcess("/why/would/we/need/this/full/path/task.bpmn", function(err, task){
    task.triggerEvent("MyStart");
});

If only a filename is provided, cannot we use the called entry point script location as root?

You can use modules "path" like this:

var bpmn = require('bpmn');
var path = require('path');
bpmn.createUnmanagedProcess(path.join(__dirname, '../bpmn/myProcess.bpmn'), function (err, myProcess) {
    myProcess.triggerEvent("MyStart");
});

Provide a absolutely path in the current working directory.

Try path.resolve, that's cooler anyway.
