What

...

is it for?

BeanShell is a small, embeddable Java source interpreter with object scripting language features , written in Java. BeanShell dynamically executes standard Java syntax. So, by using BeanShell Plugin, you can type in valid Java codes in plugin configuration , and the statements will be executed when the plugin is triggered. No compilation cycle is needed.

...

  • Java syntax supported by the version of JDK used
  • Usage of the following libraries:
    • Libraries available in JDK
    • org.joget.workflow.model.*
    • org.joget.workflow.util.*
    • JavaBeans Activation Framework 1.1
    • Commons Email 1.1
    • JavaMail 1.4
    • MySQL JDBC Driver 3.1.14
    • Oracle JDBC Driver 10.2.0.2
    • Microsoft SQL Server JDBC Driver 1.0
  • Usage of Hash Variables

    Example

Set value to a workflow variable:

Code Block
import org.joget.workflow.model.service.*;

WorkflowManager wm = (WorkflowManager) pluginManager.getBean("workflowManager");

wm.activityVariable(workflowAssignment.getActivityId(), "variableId", "variableValue");

Execute SQL statement through JDBC:

Code Block
import java.sql.*Connection;
import java.sql.PreparedStatement;
import java.sql.SQLException;
import javax.sql.DataSource;
import org.joget.apps.app.service.AppUtil;

Connection con = null;

try {

Class.forName("com.mysql.jdbc.Driver").newInstance();

    // retrieve connection from the default datasource
    DataSource ds = (DataSource)AppUtil.getApplicationContext().getBean("setupDataSource");
    con = DriverManagerds.getConnection("jdbc:mysql://localhost/wflowdb?useUnicode=true&characterEncoding=UTF-8", "root", "root");

);

    // execute SQL query
    if(!con.isClosed()) {
{ System.out.println("Successfully connected to MySQL server using TCP/IP..."); PreparedStatement stmt = con.createStatement(); stmt.executeUpdate(prepareStatement("UPDATE formdata_simpleflowtable1 setSET c_statuscolumn1='#assignment.activityId#' WHERE processId='#assignment.processId#'"); }
value1'");
        stmt.executeUpdate();
    }
} catch(Exception e) {
{    System.err.println("Exception: " + e.getMessage());
} }

finally {

try
{    try {
        if(con != null) {
            con.close();
        }

    } catch(SQLException e) {
    }

}

Participant Type Plugin

Anchor
Participant Type Plugin
Participant Type Plugin

A participant type plugin should return a collection of usernames. In the participant plugin, there are two context variables available for the script to use  :

  • pluginManager
  • workflowActivity

A Beanshell Participant Type Plugin participant type plugin returning one Participantparticipant:

Code Block
import java.util.ArrayList;

a = new ArrayList();

a.add("jack"); // one username

return a;

Get all users from the DirectoryManager and assigning them:

Code Block
import java.util.Collection;
import java.util.ArrayList;
import org.joget.apps.app.service.AppUtil;
import org.joget.directory.model.service.ExtDirectoryManager;
import org.joget.directory.model.User;
import org.springframework.context.ApplicationContext;

ApplicationContext ac = AppUtil.getApplicationContext();
ExtDirectoryManager directoryManager = (ExtDirectoryManager) ac.getBean("directoryManager");

Collection results = new ArrayList();

Collection userList = directoryManager.getUserList();

for (User u : userList) {
	results.add(u.getUsername());
}
return results;

Activity Tool Type Plugin

Activity tool type plugin Tool Type Plugin is a plugin that will be executed when the workflow reached reaches a System Tool activity. System Tool activities must be placed in the workflow diagram , and then the Beanshell plugin configured in the Process's Activity Mapping for this to work.  In this plugin there ,  there are two context variables available for the script to use :

  • pluginManager
  • workflowAssignment
  • appDef  - AppDefinition

A Beanshell

...

activity tool type plugin that sets a form data:

Code Block
import java.util.ArrayListHashMap;
import java.util.logging.LoggerMap;
import org.joget.apps.app.model.AppDefinition;
import org.joget.pluginapps.app.baseservice.PluginManagerAppService;
import java.util.logging.FileHandlerorg.joget.apps.app.service.AppUtil;
import org.joget.apps.workflowform.model.service.WorkflowManagerFormRow;
import org.joget.apps.form.model.FormRowSet;
import org.joget.apps.form.service.FormManagerFormUtil;
import org.joget.formworkflow.model.Form;

FormManager formManagerWorkflowAssignment;
import org.joget.workflow.util.WorkflowUtil;

//Constant variable
String formDefId = "approvalForm";

//Service bean
AppService appService = (FormManagerAppService) pluginManagerAppUtil.getApplicationContext().getBean("formManagerappService");
processId
//Get primary key
String id = appService.getOriginProcessId(workflowAssignment.getProcessId());
Form form = formManager.loadDynamicFormByProcessId("T01", processId); // in this example, form's table is T01

formData = form.getCustomProperties();
formData.put("c_columnname","new value"); // the form data field to be set is columnname
form.setCustomProperties(formData);
formManager.saveForm(form
//Get existing data
FormRowSet rowSet = appService.loadFormData(appDef.getAppId(), appDef.getVersion().toString(), formDefId, id);
FormRow row = null;
if (rowSet == null || rowSet.isEmpty()) {
    rowSet = new FormRowSet();
    row = new FormRow();
    row.setId(id);
    rowSet.add(row);
} else {
    row = rowSet.get(0);
}

//Set values
row.setProperty("field1", "value 1");
row.setProperty("field2", "value 2");
row.setProperty("field3", "value 3");

//Save
appService.storeFormData(appDef.getAppId(), appDef.getVersion().toString(), formDefId, rowSet, id);

Increment a workflow variable value:

Code Block
import org.joget.workflow.model.service.WorkflowManager;

WorkflowManager workflowManager = (WorkflowManager) pluginManager.getBean("workflowManager");
String approvalLvl = workflowManager.getProcessVariable(workflowAssignment.getProcessId(), "ApprovalLevel");
String newApprovalLvl = String.valueOf(Integer.parseInt(approvalLvl)+1);
workflowManager.activityVariable(workflowAssignment.getActivityId(), "ApprovalLevel", newApprovalLvl);

This beanshell script retrieves workflow variable 'ApprovalLevel', convert converts it into to an integer, add adds 1, and stores it back as the same workflow variable.
