To store workflow's in DB
vkonde opened this issue · comments
Store status in DB with workflow name and get it..
I don't no is this way is right or wrong....
i have create array as per work flow definition but i get following error.
"name": "Workflow Validation Exception", "message": "One or more end status are not defined : [\n 0 => 'UploadresultWorkflow/deleted'\n 1 => 'UploadresultWorkflow/approval'\n 2 => 'UploadresultWorkflow/approve'\n 3 => 'UploadresultWorkflow/disapprove'\n 4 => 'UploadresultWorkflow/deleted'\n]",
and this is my getDefinition()..
public function getDefinition() {
$init = WorkflowTransition::find()
->where(['workflow_name' => 'visa1'])
->One();
$status = WorkflowTransition::find()
->where(['workflow_name' => 'visa1'])
->All();
$defination = [
'initialStatusId' => $init->initial,
'status' => [
]
];
foreach($status as $value)
{
explode: $thePostIdArray = explode(',', $value->transition);
$transition['transition'] = $thePostIdArray;
$defination['status'][$value->initial] = $transition;
}
return $defination;
}
$status = WorkflowTransition::find()
->where(['workflow_name' => 'visa1'])
->All();
how can make "visa1" (i.e document type changeable ), when user uploading document. can we pass parameter.
I will reply next week
fine, i have also done with this document type changeable with session,but still i want to more discuss with you.
thnk you.
Hi vkonde,
I'm back from holidays and try to reply to your question. From what I understand you want to store workflow definition into DB. To do so, you should write a workflow source component dedicated to read the workflow from DB, and not from file (like the workflow source component provided with yii2-workflow).
Sometimes ago @feor58 has the same request and I advice you take a look to this issue where we discussed this subject. In this discussion I have proposed an example of implementation which is incomplete, but can give you an idea on how to implement a workflowDbSource component.
bye
yes, i had done in same way like this get all transitions from DB and return array.
hi,
but my DB structure is different and this is my getDefinition return following array :
i don't know this is the correct way but it works for me, but yet I am not assigning one workflow for multiple Document type
public function getDefinition() {
$workflowname = \yii::$app->session->get('workflowname');
$init = WorkflowTransition::find()
->where(['workflow_name' => $workflowname])
->One();
$status = WorkflowTransition::find()
->where(['workflow_name' => $workflowname])
->All();
$defination = [
'initialStatusId' => $init->initial,
'status' => [
]
];
foreach($status as $value)
{
explode: $thePostIdArray = explode(',', $value->transition);
$transition['transition'] = $thePostIdArray;
$defination['status'][$value->initial] = $transition;
}
return $defination;
}
Workflow assignation is done by setting the status to the initial status of a workflow.
If you want to assign a workflow to a Model depending on a model's attribute (the Document type) you must implement it (as it is not a built-in feature).
For example :
if( $model->type == 'TypeA') {
$model->status = 'workflowA/draft';
} elseif( $model->type == 'TypeB') {
$model->status = 'workflowB/draft';
} // etc ....hi,
there is another problem in the workflow if i wants to get following,
$model = UploadResult::find()->all();
it's give me error because of the workflow model loads after calling UploadResult :
public function behaviors() { return [ \raoul2000\workflow\base\SimpleWorkflowBehavior::className() ]; }
my workflow definition set if session is set so...
