workflow-automation v0.0.25

workflow-automation

Workflow-automation will be running complex workflows on browsers and servers. Based on NEA (nondeterministic finite automaton) you can handle parallel running states. The workflow functionality is based on tokens. If a state has min. 1 token. The next transition to the following state can be called. The whole library is written in TypeScript.

Installation

Install via npm:

$ npm install workflow-automation

Install via yarn:

$ yarn add workflow-automation

Load

To use the workflow component, import the javascript file:

import { Workflow } from 'workflow-automation';

Example

A simple example can be found in the 'example' folder. The following code samples are written in TypeScript.

Create a linear workflow

import { 
    Workflow, 
    Start, 
    End,
    SimpleState,
    Transition
} from 'workflow-automation';

// create the workflow object
var workflow = new Workflow();

// create start and end
var start = new Start('start');
var end = new End('end');

// create a simple state between start and end
var state = new SimpleState('state');

// create transitions from start to state to end
var transition1 = new Transition('trans1', start, state);
var transition2 = new Transition('trans2', state, end);

// create workflowObject. It contains the current status of the workflow
var workflowObject = {};

// initialize the workflow
workflow.transitions = [transition1, transition2];
workflow.namespace = 'example';
workflow.init(workflowObject);

// call next() to go to the next state
workflow.next();
