Same question here Ross, How's the workflow engine going ? Cheers António 2012/7/6 Andrew > Hi Ross, > How's the workflow engine going ? > > Regards > Andrew W > --

Hi Ross, How's the workflow engine going ? Regards Andrew W

Re: [web2py] Re: RFC: web2py-based workflow engine

Thanks Ross, I think it does, at least enough to give it a go.

No, it is just a singleton module, just like Auth or Cache.

Re: [web2py] Re: RFC: web2py-based workflow engine

Ross, Does this mean your workflow engine is also a background task? Something like my_queue = [] def handle_it(it): blah... while True: my_queue.extend(db.q_table while my_queue: mytask = my_queue.pop() handle_it(mytask) On Friday, May 25, 2012 9:31:33 AM UTC-4, Ross Peo

Re: [web2py] Re: RFC: web2py-based workflow engine

Andrew, If I'm understanding you properly, the only major difference between the business process workflow (the one I am writing) and the data integration workflow you mention is that one requires human interaction, while the other is handled by automated systems. Is that fairly accurate? If so

Re: [web2py] Re: RFC: web2py-based workflow engine

Hi Ross, The term Workflow can potentially mean a lot of things to different people, and it certainly sounds like you're talking about business process workflows. I have been looking at (well, thinking mainly) about "workflows" in the context of Data Integration applications, where there are ma

Re: [web2py] Re: RFC: web2py-based workflow engine

Hi, Ross, I think that the entire community is thinking and walking in the RIGHT way. And your effort is a prove of this. Congratulations. So, IMHO, I think that workflows are not only linear, but in some cases we have concurrent tasks to do. If your algorithm is compliant with this, I think that

Re: [web2py] Re: RFC: web2py-based workflow engine

Please see my workflow framework in Lotus Notes, in the end of creating rules, i use graphviz to draw the graph of the workflow.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zMNwqAtiFOw Also i manage centrally all rules and all apps point to my framework like a workflow as a service. Easier to manage. i think
