Workflows, simplified, with State Machine
Workflows should be simple. Implementing workflows should be even simpler.
This session explores State Machine, a contrib module that not only provides a simple workflow for nodes, but puts capable tools in the hands of developers to extend that workflow.
We’ll explore the object-oriented methodology of State Machine, it’s included sub-modules State Flow and State Flow Schedule, and how create your own workflows that can be easily implemented across environments without exporting.
This session will cover:
- Simple, out-of-the-box workflow with State Machine
- Creating an advanced workflow by extending State Machine
- Using the api to ignore content types, create custom rules and actions, and schedule events
- Bulk revisioning
- Your workflow in a data visualization
