BlueSpice 4.3

Description

The SetTemplateParams activity allows automatic setting a template parameter on a wiki page.

• Templates are accessed by the order of appearance on the page, starting at 0. Non-existing templates are counted as links, so they do not count in this list.
• Parameters inside the template can be specified by their name or the index in case of non-named parameters.
• Index for non-named params starts at 1 (not 0!), as to be consistent with how template params are accessed in the template itself.
• Nested templates are currently not supported.

Example

Workflow task

This workflow task will set the value of the parameter {{{status|not set}}} to Updated on a page's first template.

<bpmn:task id="EditTemplate" name="Edit template">
    	<bpmn:extensionElements>
			<wf:type>set_template_param</wf:type>
		</bpmn:extensionElements>
		<bpmn:property name="title" default="Testpage" validation="required,existing-title"/>
		<bpmn:property name="user" default="WikiSysop" validation="existing-user"/>
		<!-- Index of the template on page (starting from 0) -->
		<bpmn:property name="template-index" default="0"/>
		<!-- Param to modify. Can be a string in case of named params, or a number, in case of non-named params (starting from 1, accessor for the param) -->
		<bpmn:property name="template-param" default="status"/>
		<!-- New value to set -->
		<bpmn:property name="value" default="Updated"/>
		<bpmn:property name="minor" default="0"/>

		<!-- Output properties -->
		<bpmn:property name="revisionId"/>
		<bpmn:property name="timestamp"/>
      <bpmn:incoming>Flow_1qh6vpl</bpmn:incoming>
      <bpmn:outgoing>Flow_0if1kyp</bpmn:outgoing>

    </bpmn:task>

Template

The template content has the parameter {{{status}}} At the time of writing this, the workflow produced an error tif the parameter was wrapped in a <div> tag. Therefore, in the example below, the parameter is defined in a variable first. If the parameter is not in a div tag, using a variable is not necessary.

{{#vardefine:status|{{{status|not set}}}}}
<div style="background:#fbfaef;">Page status: {{#var:status}}</div>
