Creating a new advanced workflow in java [SOLVED]

[jimcornmell]

Hi All,

Does anyone know how to create an advance workflow in Java?  I've used the JavaScript example from the wiki:

var workflow = actions.create("start-workflow");
workflow.parameters.workflowName = "jbpm$wf:my_workflow";
workflow.parameters["bpm:workflowDescription"] = document.name;
workflow.parameters["bpm:assignee"] = person;
workflow.execute(document);‍‍‍‍‍

But I need to add many documents to the workflow task automatically, so I need to do this in Java (facility is not available in JavaScript API, see my post a few days ago http://forums.alfresco.com/viewtopic.php?t=9584).  But I'm completely stuck.  I've tried the above JavaScript and then running the SDK TaggingSample Java example, but this does nothing once the workflow is started.  i.e. I can run either action but not both.  Hence I think I need the one Java action to:

- Create the workflow.
- Add lots of documents to it.

Thanks in advance.

Hi All,

I've managed to solve this post.  The code below is not clean, production quality etc. etc. and all other caveats.  To use do the following:

- This is based on the TaggingSample in the SDK.

- Create a rule which runs this action when you place a file called XXXX_jobs.txt in a space.  This file contains a list of files to upload and add to the workflow (which are found in a folder called UPLOAD_FOLDER_LOCATION).  Its a bit of a naff way of doing this, but its simple and illustrates one way to run this task which is trivial.

- The code below reads this file, loads each of the files into a precreated space called UPLOAD_FOLDER_NAME.  Once these are loaded it creates a workflow (JBPM_WORKFLOW_NAME), adds the files and starts it off.

I still have two issues which I need to resolve (I have added two posts to see if I can get them answered, see http://forums.alfresco.com/viewtopic.php?t=9966, http://forums.alfresco.com/viewtopic.php?t=9982).

If you spot any issues with this, have any comments or suggestions please let me know.

I hope this helps others.

hi jim,

i have a similar requirement using java api.The use case is as follows

1) Each user has a "company" folder.
2) When that user uploads a file in his "company" folder a reqeust for approval goes to a group or "admin" user for approval.
3) When "admin" or one member of group approves the request than only the file becomes visible in "company" folder.
4) If group or "admin" user reject the request the file moves to trash or some other folder.

Since you already have done something in this space can you please help me with some java code snippet and steps to achieve the same since I am very new to Alfresco.

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Like most people time is in short supply.  I've found it very useful to read up on the Spring framework, and spend time looking at the JPBM stuff and the javascript involved to move jobs around in the workflow.  I do a similar thing where I move the status of jobs to different folders when complete.  Maybe the following would be useful.
