|
|
| error | `EventEmitter<ProcessInstance>` | Emitted when the start process operation fails |
|
|
|
|
### Start a process with a default name and pre-selected process definition name
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
<adf-start-process
|
|
[appId]="YOUR_APP_ID"
|
|
[name]="PROCESS_NAME"
|
|
[processDefinitionName]="PROCESS_DEFINITION_NAME">
|
|

|
|
```
|
|
|
|
If your app has more than one process definition, with the property processDefinitionName you can select as dropdown default value your PROCESS_DEFINITION_NAME. The name will be the PROCESS_NAME.
|
|
|
|
### Start a process not included in an app
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
<adf-start-process
|
|
[processDefinitionName]="PROCESS_DEFINITION_NAME">
|
|
</adf-start-process>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
With the property processDefinitionName you can select as dropdown default value your PROCESS_DEFINITION_NAME.
|
|
|
|
### Custom data example
|
|
|
|
Here is an example of how to pass in form field values to initialize the start form that has been
|
|
defined for the process:
|
|
|
|
```ts
|
|
const formValues: FormValues = {
|
|
'test_1': 'value_1',
|
|
'test_2': 'value_2',
|
|
'test_3': 'value_1',
|
|
'test_4': 'dropdown_id',
|
|
'test_5': 'dropdown_label',
|
|
'dropdown': {'id': 'dropdown_id', 'name': 'dropdown_label'}
|
|
};
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
<adf-start-process
|
|
[values]="formValues"
|
|
[appId]="YOUR_APP_ID" >
|
|
</adf-start-process>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Attaching a File to the start form of the process
|
|
|
|
After the repository is created in APS, you can it in the Alfresco Repositories list.
|
|
If the ID is set to 1 then all default values are fine.
|
|
However, if it is set to something else, for example, _1002_ and the name is _alfresco_, you must set the property `alfrescoRepositoryName` in your `app.config.json` file to _alfresco-1002_:
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
name: 'Alfresco ADF Application'
|
|
},
|
|
ecmHost: 'http://{hostname}{:port}/ecm',
|
|
bpmHost: 'http://{hostname}{:port}/bpm',
|
|
logLevel: 'silent',
|
|
alfrescoRepositoryName : 'alfresco-1002'
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
You then need to pass the node as the input `values` object with the other properties:
|
|
|
|
```ts
|
|
let node: MinimalNodeEntryEntity = this.nodesApiService.getNode(NODE_ID);
|
|
|
|
const formValues: FormValues = {
|
|
'file' : node
|
|
'field_one': 'example text'
|
|
};
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Note that in the object above, the key `file` is the name of the attach file field in the start form of the process. The value of the `file` property must be a
|
|
[MinimalNodeEntryEntity](document-library.model.md):
|
|
|
|
```html
|
|
<adf-start-process
|
|
[values]="formValues"
|
|
[appId]="YOUR_APP_ID" >
|
|
</adf-start-process>
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
The result will be the start form prefilled with the file data:
|
|
