Plugin development is supported by DOM Digital Online Media GmbH

This plug-in provides a great functionality for those who is familiar with the Ruby language.
It allows to customize workflow by defining own rules of issues processing. It's possible:
  • To change issue properties if some conditions are met;
  • To create new issues programmatically if the conditions are met (for example you can create an issue in another project if the status of source issue is changed to specific value);
  • To raise custom errors which will display to user, if he does something wrong;
  • To do anything that conforms to your needs;
Starting with version 0.1.2 you can specify observable object for workflow. Supported observable objects for now:
  • Issue (before_save, after_save, before_destroy, after_destroy)
  • Group (before_save, after_save, before_destroy, after_destroy)
  • User (before_save, after_save, before_destroy, after_destroy)
  • Project (before_save, after_save, before_destroy, after_destroy)
  • Attachment (before_save, after_save, before_destroy, after_destroy)
  • Wiki Content (before_save, after_save, before_destroy, after_destroy)
  • Group Users (before_add, after_add, before_remove, after_remove)
  • Issue Attachments (before_add, after_add, before_remove, after_remove)
  • Project Attachments / Files (before_add, after_add, before_remove, after_remove)
  • Wiki Page Attachments (before_add, after_add, before_remove, after_remove)
  • <Shared code>

<Shared code> - special type for workflows that running before all other workflows and can provide libraries of additional functions or classes.

A must have plugin.

THANKS !

  by Mikhail Voronyuk over 7 years ago

The awesome plugin!
It does for me
1) update a 'last modifier' user-field after each issue modification
2) check if spent time is specified for Support tracker when an issue is marked as Solved

Very dangerous plugin from a security point of view. Can easily be used to steal or delete all data by rogue admins or compromised admin accounts. In my opinion, code changes should be made in the code, not via the web UI.

  by Quan VN almost 9 years ago

Excellent. version 0.1.2 also works for 2.6.5 with this change: in models/custom_workflow.rb, scope: for_project, change .join_table into .options[:join_table]

I've tried to fix it for Redmine 3.0. Unfortunately, I have small experience with Ruby and Redmine. I've fixed controller and migration scripts.Migrations was successful,but example workflow doesn't exist and RecNotFound error occurs even if add manually

  by Moritz Koehler over 9 years ago

must have plugin
works in 2.6

  by Victor Gershgorn over 9 years ago

Amazing plugin!
If you want to check role of a user you can use the following syntax, which will return true or false:

User.current.roles_for_project(@issue.project).include?(Role.find(:first, :conditions => "name='SomeRloeName'"))

Works in 2.5.2

We need more rules about the workflow script grammer.

This page header does not list a code repository: here is a mirror on github for the plugin:

  by Thierry LEPIEZ over 9 years ago

it like it.
Just a sample, for bug tracker as immediate by default :
before script:
if new_record?
if @issue.tracker_id==1
@issue.priority_id=5
if @issue.assigned_to.nil?
@issue.assigned_to=User.current
end
end
end

This does everything I wanted and more. From validation to automatic field calculation and complex svn integration. Works perfectly with Redmine 2.4.2
