Hallo,

I would like to create an URL trigger for the workflows in Geomedia Smart Client. I was told that the source code yet exists. Could anyone post the source code here?

Best regards

Mario

Hi,

could you please elaborate more what you need? Is it a custom trigger you are talking about? What do you need to implement in such a trigger?

Thanks,

Stefano

Hallo Stefano,

I think it is a custom trigger that performs a simple 'clic' on an URL.

The workflow settings should look like this:

<WorkflowTrigger name="SIGNOFF" type="UrlTrigger" method="action">

<Param name="Url" value="http://server/CadService/LogoffEmployee?empid={REQUESTCONTEXT.empid}"/>

</WorkflowTrigger>

I was told that for this operation the sourcecode yet exists.

Could you post in here such an example?

Best Regards

Mario

Hi Mario,

you need to create a .NET class libary and reference the following assemblies in your project:

• Intergraph.Emea.Core
• Intergraph.Emea.Workflows

Add a new class to your project and name it "UrlTrigger".

To create a custom workflow trigger you need to inherit from WorkflowTriggerBase and override the Execute method.

using Intergraph.Emea.Workflows;
using Intergraph.Emea.Core;

namespace SampleTriggers
{
    [ExtensibleType("UrlTrigger")]
    public class UrlTrigger : WorkflowTriggerBase
    {
        public string Url { get; set; }

        public override void Execute()
        {

            using (HttpClient client = new HttpClient()){
				using (HttpResponseMessage response = await client.GetAsync(Url)){
					using (HttpContent content = response.Content)
					{
					   //todo: do something with the response if needed
					}
				}
			}
        }
     }
}

This is a simple code for your needs.

In order to use your custom trigger, you need to place your assembly in the bin folder.
