Well, in fact, this discussion is a bit theoretical now -- I'm not
sure I need it (now that you've added the pick functionality), but
thanks for helping me understand it :-)
Anyway, for the archives, I could do it like this:
In Densha's workitem_controller.rb:
def update
:
user = session[:user]
:
workitem.touch # setting last_modified to now
# NEW: REMEMBER WHO'S SAVED THIS
fields['_last_modified_by'] = user.name
workitem.replace_fields fields # calls workitem.save!
:
end
And in my process definition:
sequence do
# Step 1: have any editor (like Alice or Bob) pick this workitem
# from the "redaction" store, to define the headline
participant "redaction", :activity => "request new newspaper
article"
set :f => "_editor", :value => "${f:_last_modified_by}"
# Step 2: have any journalist (like Charley or Eve) pick this
workitem
# from the "journalist" store to start writing it
participant "journalist" :activity => "write"
set :f => "_writer", :value => "${f:_last_modified_by}"
# Step 3: have the editor from step 1 comment on it
participant "${f:_editor}", :activity => "comment"
# Step 4: have the journalist from step 2 revise the article
participant "${f:_writer}", :activity => "revise"
# Step 5: have the editor from step 1 approve it
participant "${f:_editor}", :activity => "approve"
end
There might very well be some better place to set the value for
"_last_modified_by" (or maybe the name doesn't even need to be saved
into the workitem fields at all), but at least the above describes
what I was trying to explain :-)
Ciao!
Arjan.
