README

Extensions to the Yii PHP framework providing tools for switching status of a model.

Provides:

• a controller action with a view to perform status transitions
• a model behavior to bind custom logic to status transitions
• a controller method to build a menu
• state graph configuration

Installation

Currently, the repository is private, so add it manually to the composer.json file:

  "require": {
    "netis/yii2-fsm": "dev-master"
  },

add alias to config 'aliases' => [ '@netis' => '@vendor/netis', ],

Usage

    run example `./yii fsm/create  "\netis\assortment\models\Product" "application_status_changes" "productPricings"`

• Implement the IStateful interface in selected AR model. You might want to add Yii::import('fsm.components.*') at the top of the file.
• Adjust rules to remove attributes from the transition scenario. The NetActiveRecord.filterRules() helper method should be used for that.
• In the controller, add the state action and include it in the context menu, adjust according to comments:

    public function actions()
    {
        return array(
            'state'=>array(
                'class'=>'fsm.components.StateAction',
                'updateAuthItem' => 'update Model', // adjust here, insert AR model name
                'isAdminCallback' => array('NetController', 'isAdmin'),
            ),
        );
    }

    protected function buildNavigation(CAction $action, NetActiveRecord $model, $readOnly = false, $horizontal = true)
    {
        $result = parent::buildNavigation($action, $model, $readOnly, $horizontal);
        if ($horizontal || $model->primaryKey !== null) {
            Yii::import('fsm.components.StateAction');
            $transitions = $model->getTransitionsGroupedByTarget();
            $this->menu[] = StateAction::getContextMenuItem($action, $transitions, $model, $model->status_id, self::isAdmin()); // adjust status column
        }
        return $result;
    }

Todo

• group state transition logic into named workflows
