Close steps

Step plugin for Goobi workflow for the simultaneous completion of several work steps

Overview

Introduction

This workflow plugin makes it possible to close a specific step in several processes at the same time. The steps available for this are defined beforehand in a configuration file and are available for selection later on the web interface. The processes in which the selected step is to be closed are specified via file upload.

Installation

The following files must be installed for the installation:

/opt/digiverso/goobi/plugins/workflow/plugin_intranda_workflow_closestep.jar
/opt/digiverso/goobi/plugins/GUI/plugin_intranda_workflow_closestep-GUI.jar

To set the closable steps for the plugin, the following configuration file must be created and customized:

/opt/digiverso/goobi/config/plugin_intranda_workflow_closestep.xml

To use this plugin, the user must have the correct role permission.

Therefore, please assign role Plugin_Goobi_Closestep to the group.

Overview and functionality

If the plugin has been installed and configured correctly, it can be found under the Workflow menu item.

First, an Excel file is uploaded in XLS or XLSX format to specify the desired processes. This contains a listing of all IDs of the desired processes.

The easiest way to get such a file is to compile a list of the processes you want on the 'Search processes' page and export the result from the 'Processes' page to an Excel file.

Important: Make sure that Select all fields is selected, otherwise the file will not contain the required IDs in the second column and will not be compatible with this plugin.

Next, the step to be closed is selected. A drop-down menu is available for this purpose, which offers all the steps specified in the configuration file.

Now click on Upload file.

If the Excel file does not contain any task IDs, a corresponding error message is now displayed.

Otherwise, a list with all processes will now appear. Depending on whether a step can be closed, is already closed, or cannot be closed for certain reasons, an appropriate box is now displayed. If there are error messages, the list of error messages within an operation is expandable.

If there are closable steps, these are closed with a click on "Close steps" and the boxes for the corresponding steps change from "Can be closed" to "Is closed".

You can optionally download the list of status and error descriptions as an Excel file.

Configuration

The plugin is configured in the file plugin_intranda_workflow_closestep.xml as shown here:
