Execute action agains multiple documents

zkiss77 — Mon, 31 Aug 2009 13:00:34 GMT

I'm trying to develop a webscript, which receive one or more document id, and a username (and some toher data) and register an ad-hoc workflow (task) with the documents to the given user.I have the next sample working code. It creates the task, and assign it to the user. But only with 1 document.var

I think you have to write into variable bpm_package and add as many documents as you want

But how can I access bpm_package variable?
This script runs not in a jbpm workflow, but in a webscript context. And now it is just an action ("start-workflow") call. I couldn't find any other sample to start workflow from script.

Thanks JayJayECL! I find it.


var mydoc = search.findNode("workspace://SpacesStore/3cacf305-4e5f-4643-9b25-55a54d6539e5");
var mydoc2 = search.findNode("workspace://SpacesStore/ade24790-19df-41d3-b16c-5b6ad0a5b932");

var workflowDefinition = workflow.getDefinitionByName("jbpm$wf:adhoc");

var workflowPackage = workflow.createPackage();
workflowPackage.addNode(mydoc);
workflowPackage.addNode(mydoc2);

var workflowParameters = new Array();
workflowParameters["bpm:assignee"] = people.getPerson("test_user");
workflowParameters["bpm:workflowDescription"] = "Test ad-hoc task";
var futureDate = new Date();
futureDate.setDate(futureDate.getDate() + 21);
workflowParameters["bpm:workflowDueDate"] = futureDate;
workflowParameters["bpm:workflowPriority"] = 1;

var workflowPath = workflowDefinition.startWorkflow(workflowPackage, workflowParameters);
