Introduction to the Qorus Workflow API

Each workflow's Program container is set up with the following imported objects:

In addition to the above, all public constants in the OMQ namespace are available.

Designing and Implementing Workflows

This section describes additional classes, constants, and functions that are imported into workflow Program objects by the Qorus system itself that make up the Qorus Workflow API for the Qore proggramming language.

Workflow Class API

The workflow class APIs are documented here:

For class steps, each base step class inherits Workflow::WorkflowApi (Qore) or workflow.WorkflowApi (Java) directly. This means that Qore and Java code can call the static methods defined in the base class directly.

For library classes and other workflow code, calls must be prefixed with the class name (also for all Java code as well).

Qore Workflow Program Container

Each workflow has a single Qore Program logic container containing all its code for the workflow, as well as any objects imported into the Program object (classes, constants, and functions listed as attributes of the workflow when the workflow is defined).

Workflow Program objects are restricted from using elements of the Qore language related to process and thread control; the use of these functions is either dangerous or could violate the integrity of the Qorus server process and therefore is restricted.

To enforce these restrictions, workflow Program logic containers are created with the following sandbox restrictions:

Directive Constant Description
%no-top-level Qore::PO_NO_TOP_LEVEL_STATEMENTS No code is allowed in the top-level statement (outside a function or class)
%no-thread-control Qore::PO_NO_THREAD_CONTROL Thread management functionality is unavailable
%no-process-control Qore::PO_NO_PROCESS_CONTROL Functionality that affects the entire process is unavailable
%no-global-vars Qore::PO_NO_GLOBAL_VARS Global variables may not be defined
%require-our Qore::PO_REQUIRE_OUR All variables must be declared before use

Please see the above links for more information on the features made unavailable when these parse options are set.

Please note that despite these restrictions, workflow program objects have most of the Qore language API and class library available for use.

Furthermore sandbox restrictions apply to Qore code; code in other languages such as Java is not subject to these restrictions.

Furthermore, the following parse defines are defined:

Define Availability Description
Qorus W, S, J Identifies code in Qorus
QorusHasAlerts W, S, J Marks the availability of the alert API (Qorus 3.0+)
QorusHasTableCache W, S, J Marks the availability of the table cache API (Qorus 3.1+)
QorusHasUserConnections W, S, J Marks the availability of the connection API (Qorus 3.0+)
QorusServer W, S, J Identifies code used in Qorus server interfaces
QorusWorkflow W Identifies code used in a workflow Program container
Note
All defines set in qorus.defines (common to workflows, services, and jobs) are also set in Workflow Program containers

Workflow API Overview

This section lists all of the API methods specific to workflows; the main workflow API classes are:

Note
  • Workflow-specific API functions have been superceded by the API classes listed above; the old workflow api functions can be found in the OMQ::UserApi::Workflow namespace and are prefixed by "wf_".
  • Qorus class-based steps should inherit a specific class depending on the step type; see Class Step Definitions for more information
See also
  • Qorus Common Server API for APIs and API concepts common to all Qorus server code (workflows, services, and jobs).
  • Qorus Common API for a definition of API definitions common to all Qorus user code (workflows, services, and jobs) as well as the client library.
