  • Method Details

    • buildKey

      public static String buildKey(WorkContextDelegate.ProcessType processType, WorkContextDelegate.Resource resource)
      Used for creating a Key to store a value in the WorkFlowContext
      Parameters:
      processType - the type of Workflow object being persisted (ie: WORKFLOW_TASK_DEFINITION)
      resource - the object related to the processType (ie: PARAMETERS)
      Returns:
      the generated key
    • buildKey

      public static String buildKey(WorkContextDelegate.ProcessType processType, String workflowTaskName, WorkContextDelegate.Resource resource)
      Used for creating a Key to store a value in the WorkFlowContext
      Parameters:
      processType - the type of Workflow object being persisted (ie: WORKFLOW_TASK_DEFINITION)
      workflowTaskName - a unique identifier of a WorkflowTask in the event that multiple WorkflowTasks are persisting values for the the same processTpe and resource
      resource - resource the object related to the processType (ie: PARAMETERS)
      Returns:
    • read

      public static Object read(WorkContext workContext, WorkContextDelegate.ProcessType processType, String workflowTaskName, WorkContextDelegate.Resource resource)
      Gets a value from the WorkflowContext by generating a Key based on the characteristics of the value supplied to this method
      Parameters:
      workContext - reference to the context
      processType - the type of Workflow object being persisted (ie: WORKFLOW_TASK_DEFINITION)
      workflowTaskName - a unique identifier of a WorkflowTask in the event that multiple WorkflowTasks have persisted this information
      resource - the object related to the processType (ie: PARAMETERS)
      Returns:
      the object obtained from the WorkflowContext using the generated key. A null is returned if the key does not return a value
    • write

      public static void write(WorkContext workContext, WorkContextDelegate.ProcessType processType, String workName, WorkContextDelegate.Resource resource, Object object)
      Writes a value to the WorkflowContext. A Key will be generated based on the characteristics of the value supplied to this method
      Parameters:
      workContext - reference to the context
      processType - the type of Workflow object being persisted (ie: WORKFLOW_TASK_DEFINITION)
      workName - a unique identifier of a WorkflowTask in the event that multiple WorkflowTasks have persisted this information
      resource - the object related to the processType (ie: PARAMETERS)
      object - the reference to store
    • read

      public static Object read(WorkContext workContext, WorkContextDelegate.ProcessType processType, WorkContextDelegate.Resource resource)
      Gets a value from the WorkflowContext by generating a Key based on the characteristics of the value supplied to this method
      Parameters:
      workContext - reference to the context
      processType - the type of Workflow object being persisted (ie: WORKFLOW_TASK_DEFINITION)
      resource - the object related to the processType (ie: PARAMETERS)
      Returns:
      the object obtained from the WorkflowContext using the generated key. A null is returned if the key does not return a value
    • write

      public static void write(WorkContext workContext, WorkContextDelegate.ProcessType processType, WorkContextDelegate.Resource resource, Object object)
      Gets a value from the WorkflowContext by generating a Key based on the characteristics of the value supplied to this method
      Parameters:
      workContext - reference to the context
      processType - the type of Workflow object being persisted (ie: WORKFLOW_TASK_DEFINITION)
      resource - the object related to the processType (ie: PARAMETERS)
    • getRequiredValueFromRequestParams

      public static String getRequiredValueFromRequestParams(WorkContext workContext, String key) throws MissingParameterException
      Gets a required value from the WorkContext with a known key
      Parameters:
      workContext - reference from the workflow-engine that is shared across WorkFlowTasks
      key - used to put/get values from the WorkContext
      Returns:
      String value from the Map
      Throws:
      MissingParameterException - if the value not found
    • getOptionalValueFromRequestParams

      public static String getOptionalValueFromRequestParams(WorkContext workContext, String key, String defaultValue)
      Gets an optional String value from the WorkContext with a known key
      Parameters:
      workContext - reference from the workflow-engine that is shared across WorkFlowTasks
      key - used to put/get values from the WorkContext
      Returns:
      String value from the Map or a null if that key does not exist
