Task Management The Workflow Designer for VtigerCRM 6.x introduce a new process to integrate tasks you could use in your workflows. Guided by the Linux Repositories I implement a Repository system to install/update new tasks. So you will see any special tasks I provide and could install them manually with one click. During Setup of the module all available standard tasks will be installed. Some special task are marked not to install automatically, because they are mostly interact with external services, which not everybody needs. During every Update of the module all available task updates from my repositories are installed. New tasks and tasks from external repositories won't installed/updated during module update. Task Development To create a new custom task you only need to go to the “Task Management” and press “create new Task manually”. The Workflow Designer will ask you some questions, how you would define the new task. The key This is the slug of the Block, which will be used to store the relation in the database. Must be unique! The classname Must be a value with the Prefix “WfTask”. For example WfTaskNewBlock. This is the classname of the new block. The label The label, visible in the sidebar and below every block. Should describe the function of this block. Then the Workflow Designer will create the necessary files. the block will create in the task group “special tools”. Now you need to modify the files. WfTask*.php You found below /modules/Workflow2/tasks/. This file must have a special structure. <?php require_once(realpath(dirname(__FILE__).'/../autoload_wf.php')); class dummyTypeClass extends \Workflow\Task { public function handleTask(&$context) { /* Insert here source code to execute the task */ return "yes"; } public function beforeGetTaskform($viewer) { /* Insert here source code to create custom configurations pages */ } public function beforeSave(&$values) { /* Insert here source code to modify the values the user submit on configuration */ } } Discussion Real name: E-Mail: Address: Enter your comment.
