Workflow in Valuelist Item

[nidhi....@gmail.com]

Hi Team,

Is there a way to create a workflow for valuelist Item?

Thanks,

Nidhi

I want to know how i can play around with valuelist item when it is changed /updated .Because i want to save the valuelist item in my elastic search server.

Please advise!!

Thanks,

Nidhi

If this is only about updating elastic search, you could probably use
the event bus [1, 2] to subscribe to save events and then just update
ES whenever a value list is saved? No need for extra workflow.

If you do need a publication workflow, you'll need to experiment a
bit. I haven't tested this but perhaps you can try adding some of the
workflow mixins to the valuelist type's prototype [3]. I don't know
from the top of my head but you'll need at least hippostd:publishable,
hippostd:publishableSummary and hippostdpubwf:document I think. Take a
look at the prototype of a normal document type, compare and do some
trial and error. The prototype is used to create new documents.

The workflow on the valuelist document itself should work, but the
Selection Plugins that use it might not work properly anymore.

So if you could do some trial and error and report back that would be great.

Also,

Hope this helps.

Hi Niels,

I used eveny bus to subscribe the save event in valuelist and followed the below url 

http://www.onehippo.org/library/concepts/hippo-services/event-bus.html.

But the save event is not triggered ...

it seems that there is no event such as save .

I tried to debug the code also while saving the valuelist item but it seems that no event is generated..

It seems that since valuelist item does'nt have any workflow so no event is generated .

Is there any other way which can generate the event when  i save the valuelist

Below is code ...debugger is not comming to handle event method .

There should be some event generated and handled by some class  for valuelist.

Please advise . it would be great help.

I

@Service

public class SaveEventListener 

{

@Autowired

private ApplicationContext context;

@Subscribe

    public void handleEvent(HippoEvent event) {

HippoWorkflowEvent workflowEvent = new HippoWorkflowEvent(event);

System.out.println("event :- " +  workflowEvent.methodName());

}

}

My advise is to check the audit.log, which is generated in your local project. It will show you which workflows and which categories have been triggered upon the save action.

I just had a quick look and it appears that indeed saving a value list
document does not trigger any event (at least nothing gets written to
the audit log). I see event when creating a value list, when renaming
one, when deleting one, but not when saving one. Could this be a bug?

Niels

[nidhi chawhan]

Yes Even i can see the same in the audit log.

Seems to be bug!!!

I need to find a other way to index the valuelist item in the ES.

Thank  you much for prompt reply .
