[Design of JBoss jBPM] - Re: schema for mail template and activity

by tom.baeyens＠jboss.com

i'm referring to the other activities and how they are explained in terms of examples. one activity might be explained in 1, 2 or 3 examples. each example shows one specific use case. for email that would be something like: email.inline: this would show an activity that sends an email which has all the properties like to, subject, body defined inline. email.template: an mail activity using a template task.reminder: another example in the list of task examples showing the task reminder those are imo the first targets for email. all the other advanced functionality should be postponed. i'ld like to see examples in the example package. then we can discuss and then the docs should explain the story in detail just like with the other activities.

@tom, which section of the userguide should I take a look at? Are you saying to look at the Email section of the user guide or use cases elsewhere in the userguide?

could you work out a set of examples that explain the schema ? the template example i have already: <mail template="managerNotification" /> that could be used as an activity or an event-listener what about other use cases ?

MailSession should become what Mail was before: the impl class that exposed the functionality that we have implemented. Customisation of mail functionality should be another level. E.g. our base class MailActivity can be customized by users into a CustomMailActivity.

@alejandro: Don't forget for HTML emails that you can have both regular text [for users that cant render HTML in their email client] and HTML body text. Keeping that in mind, make sure that it can take both of those within the template.

How about the following proposal on the body. <body type="text"> | <body type="html"> Indeed, the attachment name can be deduced from the URL/resource/file but we can have an attribute to specify a different name. @tom, I think of the producer as the "Mail" class in jBPM 3, only truly replaceable. @brad, the templates and the activity are the same, the only difference is the option to refer to a template in the activity. I will take your suggestion to specify the producer in the template itself, and add a getProducer() method to the MailTemplate class. If you can, please take a look at what I have so far.

I would have really liked the templates to be defined in the same way as in the jPDL. If you think about it, templates really are just mail nodes that have been externalized from the process definition. Keeping then consistent with jPDL would have allowed people to pick that up pretty easily. However, if we want to have a seperate language for templates, I think what you are doing looks good. My only suggestion from the last post is that the producer attribute be moved within the template as well. This will allow users to change the email template type outside of deploying a new process. @tom: I think making it body-text and body-html would be fine. I also agree that attachments should have a name element. Also Tom, I can install skype if you want to walk over the basis for producers. I also have written a bit of documentation thats in the email_branch if you check it out and package the documentation module.
