Provide configurations without workflow-ng's helper functions
Last modified: December 7, 2007 - 13:57
It's possible to specify the configuration without the helper functions. The advantage of this method, is that it's possible to create the new configuration using workflow-ng's UI and using the export function. The export is a working configuration, which can be used like this:
<?php
/*
* Implementation of hook_configuration()
*/
function yourmodule_configuration() {
$configurations = ....EXPORT.....;
return $configurations;
}
?>So let's show how our example "Print the content title of content" on content view would like, if one specifies it as structured array:
<?php
/*
* Implementation of hook_configuration()
*/
function yourmodule_configuration() {
$configurations = array();
$configurations['module1'] = array(
'#type' => 'configuration',
'#name' => 'module1',
'#label' => 'Print the content title of pages and stories',
'#event' => 'node_view',
'#module' => 'workflow-ng-ui',
);
$configurations['module1']['logical_or'] = array(
'#type' => 'OR',
);
$configurations['module1']['logical_or']['is_page'] = array(
'#type' => 'condition',
'#name' => 'workflow_ng_condition_token_compare',
'#label' => 'Is page',
'#settings' => array(
'text1_args' => array('node'),
'text1' => '[node:type]',
'text2_args'=> array(),
'text2' => 'page',
),
);
$configurations['module1']['logical_or']['is_story'] = array(
'#type' => 'condition',
'#name' => 'workflow_ng_condition_token_compare',
'#label' => 'Is story',
'#settings' => array(
'text1_args' => array('node'),
'text1' => '[node:type]',
'text2_args' => array(),
'text2' => 'story',
),
);
$configurations['module1']['action1'] = array(
'#type' => 'action',
'#name' => 'workflow_ng_action_drupal_message',
'#label' => 'Show the title of this node',
'#settings' => array(
'message' => 'Workflow-ng example: The title of this post is [node:title]',
'message_args' => array('node'),
),
);
return $configurations;
}
?>Be sure to choose a unique configuration name, prefixed with your module's name and use it instead of "module1" in the example above.
In order for me to
In order for me to understand how to convert an export output to a structured array, I made comments on the export output where the changes are made. Hope it helps somebody else understand it better.
