Expression that evaluates to a group

niklasringdahl — Thu, 08 Nov 2007 10:16:48 GMT

I am looking for sample code that creates a group "on the fly" instead of a fixed one. Specifically I would like to add users in a transition, my initial attempt below (which did not work). Can anyone give me some advice on how to correct this? (sguwf_primarygroup is a group, sguwf_PL is a person)

You'll need to create an array containing the people you want to loop on. Each array element must be the result of people.getPerson(<name>).

Thanks, that seems like a good idea. But how do I create arrays? Sorry if it is trivial, I am a total noob to Alfresco.

Ive written a scprit to select users from the metadata and add to a group:


var workflow = actions.create("start-workflow");
workflow.parameters.workflowName = "jbpm$granskning med endarst parallel";
workflow.parameters["bpm:workflowDescription"] = "Bevakning av " + document.name;
var ppl = new Array();
ppl[0] = document.parent.assocs["sgu-pp:projectManager"].name;
workflow.parameters["sguwf:ovriga"] = ppl;

workflow.execute(document);
‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍‍

but the system fails with the following error message:

Check your assigment in workflow.

yes, it works if i manually selects users to a group. The problem is that the array "ppl" seems to be wrong datatype

Re: Expression that evaluates to a group

kevinr — Mon, 10 Dec 2007 15:27:42 GMT

There is a problem I can see:


ppl[0] = document.parent.assocs["sgu-pp:projectManager"].name; 
‍‍‍

The 'assocs' api returns an array itself - so you probably want something like this:


ppl[0] = document.parent.assocs["sgu-pp:projectManager"][0].name; 
‍‍‍

and you should really test to see if the result is 'null' also - i am assuming there will be at least one item on the end of the association here.

come on people, this shouldnt be too diifficult.

then you should be able to work it out
