NormalCompletionResult

@Deprecated
public NormalCompletionResult(WorkflowNode node,
 Object alwaysValue,
 Object successValue,
 IWorkflowFileValue fileValue,
 List<NodeSoftErrorException> softErrors)

Deprecated.

Use builder(WorkflowNode). Ideally, do not create an instance directly, prefer using INodeExecutionParams.normalResult().

Creates a new POJO with the given data.

Parameters:

node - The value returned by IBaseCompletionResult.getNode().

alwaysValue - The value returned by IBaseCompletionResult.getAlwaysValue().

successValue - The value returned by ISuccessResultData.getSuccessValue().

fileValue - The value returned by IBaseCompletionResult.getFileValue().

softErrors - The value returned by ISuccessResultData.getSoftErrors().

Method Details

getAlwaysValue

public Object getAlwaysValue()

Specified by:

getAlwaysValue in interface IBaseCompletionResult

Returns:

The value that is always returned, irrespective of whether the node completed normally or abruptly. Must conform to the IExecutionResultDescriptor.getAlwaysValueDescriptor(IValueDescriptorFactory) IExecutionResultDescriptor#getAlwaysValueDescriptor.

getAttachmentValue

public IWorkflowAttachmentValue getAttachmentValue()

Specified by:

getAttachmentValue in interface IBaseCompletionResult

Returns:

The attachment or attachments returned by the node when executed. Must conform to the IExecutionResultDescriptor.getAttachmentValueDescriptor().

getFileValue

public IWorkflowFileValue getFileValue()

Specified by:

getFileValue in interface IBaseCompletionResult

Returns:

The file returned by the node when executed. Must conform to the IExecutionResultDescriptor.getFileValueDescriptor().

getNode

public WorkflowNode getNode()

Specified by:

getNode in interface IBaseCompletionResult

Returns:

The node that created this result. May be null when no node is associated with this result.

getSoftErrors

public List<NodeSoftErrorException> getSoftErrors()

Description copied from interface: ISuccessResultData

Business logic might need to distinguish between hard errors and soft errors. A hard error is an exception that results in the workflow failing when not caught by an error handler. These are for example technical errors such as a missing database connection, or when a file cannot be read form the file system due to missing permissions.

Soft errors are similar to warnings in that not all of the the business logic could be performed or that some the business logic had to be skipped. In contrast with hard errors, however, the node itself still completes normally and does not cause the workflow to fail. This method can be used to check if any soft errors occurred.

Soft errors are similar to hard errors in that both provide an error code, an error message, as well as custom additional data.

Common examples of soft errors include missing files from optional upload form elements, or a 4xx HTTP return code. However, the exact definition of what constitutes a soft error must be decided on a case-by-case basis by each individual node implementation. This method is meant to be a uniform interface for nodes to provide information about soft errors. This method can also be used to check whether a node was "successful", by checking whether the list of soft errors is empty. Implementations are encouraged to provide more details about their completion status via ISuccessResultData.getSuccessValue().

Soft errors are purely informational. Workflow execution is not affected in any way by whether or not soft error occurred. The node still either completes normally or returns, and the next node or trigger is processed as if no soft errors were present.

@implNote This interface provides a default implementation that returns an empty list for backwards compatibility so as not to break existing implementation. However, all existing implementations are strongly advised to override and implement this method. The default implementation may be removed at some point.

Specified by:

getSoftErrors in interface ISuccessResultData

Returns:

A list of soft errors that did occur during the execution of the workflow node.

getSuccessValue

public Object getSuccessValue()

Specified by:

getSuccessValue in interface ISuccessResultData

Returns:

The value that is returned when node completed normally. Must conform to the IExecutionResultDescriptor.getSuccessValueDescriptor(IValueDescriptorFactory) IExecutionResultDescriptor#getSuccessValueDescriptor.

empty

public static INormalCompletionResult empty()

Returns:

An empty success result with no data.

builder

public static NormalCompletionResult.Builder builder(WorkflowNode node)

Parameters:

node - The node that did finish execution.

Returns:

A builder for a NormalCompletionResult.
