How to systematically 'Approve' or 'Reject' a SimpleWorkflow

[hyperation]

Hi,

I am having trouble figuring out how to use Web Script to systematically 'Approve'/'Reject' a Simple Workflow item.

I made a Web Script that creates a "simple-workflow" Action and sets the approved destination and reject destination.  This script is working and all, but now I need the system to automatically "Approve" or "Reject" the Simple Workflow item.

I am doing this for a custom UI that does AJAX calls to a webscripts to do all the "actions".

It would be nice if there is something like..

node.execute("theAction")

..for Web Scripts.

Thanks

Any help?

I just need to trigger the "Approve" or "Reject" Action for the simple-workflow.

Thanks

Assuming that you have an active workflow task in the correct state you can signal a transition from either the Java or Java Script API.     The workflow engine will then move on according to your workflow definition.

http://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Workflow_Reqs_and_Design#Workflow_APIs

/**
* Signal the transition from one Workflow Node to another
*
* @param pathId  the workflow path to signal on
* @param transition  the transition to follow (or null, for the default transition)
* @return  the updated workflow path
*/
@Auditable(parameters = {"pathId", "transitionId"})
public WorkflowPath signal(String pathId, String transitionId);

I tried this but, no way.  I am really a big fan of these forums where there is no activity.  Really.

            var myAction = actions.create("simple-workflow");
            myAction.parameters.name = "MY_setReadyForValidation";
            myAction.parameters["approve-move"] = true;
            myAction.parameters["approve-step"] = "Accept";
            // execute action against a document    
            result.nodeRef = myAction.execute(fileNode);

In the contrary, I need to assign a confirmation dialog to every button clicked in a workflow node. The purpose is anticipating misclicking (click a wrong button). Can anyone show the way?

I just need to show "Are you sure?" and show YES button and NO button.
