wftk: Open-source workflow toolkit

Project News for wftk: Open-source workflow toolkit

  • First serious release of Python client

    The PyPop GUI interpreter, which I've just now put into the download area, wraps the wftk code into some convenient Python classes and then exposes the whole thing through a wxWidgets GUI. The definition of an app is an XML file which combines UI elements with action elements defining actions to be taken.

    There isn't much exposure of actual workflow yet. That will follow soon. (Of course, "soon" in wftk-speak means something different from normal English vernacular.)

  • Started work on two clients

    I've started work on a CGI interface and a mail handler interface (the latter being a way to get incoming mail to invoke workflow functionality). They are both using the new repository manager API as opposed to the wftk core API, even though the repmgr hasn't really been officially released. The reason is simple: the repmgr API is easier to use and to configure, which is, after all, why I came up with it in the first place.

    At any rate -- things are coming along swimmingly.

  • wftk-1.0pre2 downloadable

    Bit by bit, this is looking like a real project.

  • Nearing v1.0 of wftk core; docs in CVS

    Whelp, having been interviewed for a magazine article, I thought maybe it was time to get some closure on wftk core. Once I started digging into it, of course, I realized just how not finished it is -- but I'm still wrapping up the wftk core as a v1.0.

    In other news, I've starting putting the documentation (including source documentation) into CVS. High time that was organized. I'll also be pulling some of the historical documentation (of the spec work and prototype) into the doc tree over the next few days.

  • Started work on Python wrapper

    Part of the Zope integration, the XMLAPI wrapper is now functional (although maybe a little iffy) and checked into CVS. If you know more about Python extension than I do, feel free to try it out and tell me where it can be improved.

    Upcoming: wrappers for the rest of wftk, Zope products. (That's the short version of the Zope integration plan.)
