Tags and templates in Activiti Liferay

[larsson7]

Hello everyone,

ich have a question about tags in Activiti and Liferay.
I want to create a documentpool with many different documents in Liferay. The documents should get some tags to make the workflowprocess work. When a word like SAP or Java is found in the Documents, the process start and the document with that tag should go to a User Task. The User should read the document and add some informations in a template like a pro and cons or something. After that he approve or deny the document.

Can i realise tags and templates with activiti to use it in Liferay?
Does someone have some more informations about that topic?

I appreciate any information from you, thanks a lot!

Best ragards, Philipp

It will be a matter of hooking some kind go listener into liferay that is triggered when content is added/discovered with the tags involved in it. In this trigger/listener you'll have to call the Activiti API to start a new process, passing in any context (eg. document ID/URL) with it. This can be done using the Java-api or REST-API if activiti is not running in the same app as life ray…

How to plug this in into Liferay, I have no clue
