The type of the flow. The string values in ArchEnums#FLOW_TYPES lists valid flow type values.

Inherited From:

readonly id :string

The identifier string for this object.

Inherited From:

readonly idMayBeBlank :string

Returns whether or not the id property may be blank or undefined for this object. For example, the returned settings from ArchMenu#settingsMenu will have a blank identifier along with the settings returned from ArchMenu#settingsSpeechRec. Note that this is an extremely rare case.

Inherited From:

exportToDirAsync(destinationDiropt, callbackFunctionopt, flowFormatopt, fileNameopt) → {Promise}

Exports the current flow to a file in the specified directory. This destination directory must exist for the export to succeed. Note that this uses the file system and should not be used when running in a browser.

Parameters:
Name Type Attributes Default Description
destinationDir string <optional>

the directory where the flow export should be saved.
callbackFunction callbackExportFullPath <optional>

the function to call back and pass in the full path where the flow export was saved.
flowFormat string <optional>
 ArchEnums.FLOW_FORMAT_TYPES.architect

the desired flow format to use for the export. See ArchEnums#FLOW_FORMAT_TYPES for allowable export formats. If no format is used, it will default to the Architect format.
fileName string <optional>

the file name to use for the exported flow. If a file extension is not added to the file name, it will use the default file extension for the desired export type for the desired export format and flow that you are exporting. If the format is YAML, the extension is always '.yaml' regardless of flow type. However, if it is the Architect format, the extension is unique per flow-type. To find the correct file extension for the Architect format, you can either export a flow from the Architect UI or look at the flow definition for a flow type and access the fileExtension property to get the value. If an extension is found on the file name other than what is expected, the correct extension will be appended to the end of the exported file as per the logic described previously.
Returns:
Promise
Inherited From:
See:

exportToObjectAsync(callbackFunction, flowFormatopt) → {Promise}

Exports the flow to a JSON object. The object passed back in the callback function will be a JSON object with a content and fileName property where the content holds the flow export contents and the fileName property holds the file name where the export would be written if ArchBaseFlow#exportToDirAsync is called.

See:

getExportFilePath(destinationDiropt, flowFormatopt, fileNameopt) → {string}

This function will return the file path where a flow export will be written when calling the ArchBaseFlow#exportToDirAsync method for the supplied destination directory and export flow format. A typical use case for this function would be to get the export file path prior to calling the ArchBaseFlow#exportToDirAsync so you could see if the file already exists and decide if you want to perform an export or not since ArchBaseFlow#exportToDirAsync will attempt to overwrite a file if it already exists. Note that this uses the file system and should not be used when running in a browser.

Parameters:
Name Type Attributes Default Description
destinationDir string <optional>

the directory where the flow export should be written. If no directory path is given, this method uses the current working directory. If a relative path is supplied, it will be resolved relative to the current working directory.
flowFormat string <optional>
 ArchEnums.FLOW_FORMAT_TYPES.architect

the desired flow format to use for the export. See ArchEnums#FLOW_FORMAT_TYPES for allowable export formats. If no format is supplied, it will use the Architect format.
fileName string <optional>

the file name to use for the exported flow. If a file extension is not added to the file name, it will use the default file extension for the desired export type for the desired export format and flow that you are exporting. If the format is YAML, the extension is always '.yaml' regardless of flow type. However, if it is the Architect format, the extension is unique per flow-type. To find the correct file extension for the Architect format, you can either export a flow from the Architect UI or look at the flow definition for a flow type and access the fileExtension property to get the value. If an extension is found on the file name other than what is expected, the correct extension will be appended to the end of the exported file as per the logic described previously.

Parameters:

traverse(callbackFunction, traverseFilteropt) → {number}

This method iterates over this object and ArchBaseCoreObject instances within it. For each object it will call the ArchBaseObject#isFilterMatch method with a filter and call the supplied callback function if isMatch returns true. The callback will be passed an ArchTraverseInfo with details about the match such as the match object itself along with current contextual information such as the object hierarchy for the match object relative to the object on which this traverse call is being made.

The traverse filter is one which you can create by calling ArchFactoryFilters#createFilterObject and then add desired clauses or clause containers to it. If not specified, this function will use a default filter.

Here is an example that does a simple flow traversal using the default filter and logs information about objects in the callback from the traverse object that's passed back:

archInboundCallFlow.traverse(function(traverseInfo) {
   archLogging.logNote('  Object     : ' + traverseInfo.matchObject.logStr);
   archLogging.logNote('    Hierarchy: ' + traverseInfo.context.hierarchyStr);
});

This might be enough for most uses and you can check various aspects about the object in the callback such as "is this an Architect action?" by seeing if traverseInfo.matchObject.isArchBaseAction is true. You can specify a filter for the traversal code to use as well and only have it call your callback when the object's ArchBaseCoreObject#isFilterMatch method returns true for the filter. Here's an example that creates a filter for callbacks on any type of transfer action, any decision action or objects whose name property case insensitively matches the word 'foo'. While this could all be done with one property callback clause the example will use multiple clauses for the sake of simplicity:

const myTraverseFilter = filterFactory.createFilterObject(archEnums.FILTER_CONTAINER_OPERATORS.or);
myTraverseFilter.addClausePropertyValueEquals('isArchBaseActionTransfer', true);
myTraverseFilter.addClausePropertyValueEquals('isArchActionDecision',     true);
myTraverseFilter.addClausePropertyCallback('name', function(propValue, archContainingObject, propName) {
      // We fully spelled out the function signature above but archContainingObject and propName are
      // not needed in this case.  The archContainingObject is the object that contains the
      // property and propName is the property name itself.  We pass in propName because the same
      // function could be used for multiple property callback clauses.
      // Remember to return a boolean true, false or undefined from ths callback.  :)
      return propValue && propValue.toLowerCase() === 'foo';
});
archTask.traverse(function(traverseContext) {
   // You will only be called back here for ArchBaseCoreObject instances that
   // have the isArchBaseActionTransfer or isArchActionDecision property values equal to true.
}, myTraverseFilter);

If you supply a filter with no clauses, this tells the traverse method to call the supplied callback function for every ArchBaseCoreObject it traverses.

If you want traversal itself to stop after a callback, simply return boolean false from the callback function you supply to the traverse call.

The traverse method does not process deprecated property names such as orgId, orgName or languageSettings. Additionally it does not traverse in to properties that would "jump out" of the current traversal. An example of this would be if the code was traversing an ArchActionJumpToMenu action that it would not start traversing in to the menu that it jumps to. Another example would be a ArchActionChangeState action where it would not traverse in to the target state of the action. This also means traversal does not traverse in to the ArchBaseValue#flowLevelDefault property.

And lastly, as Scripting evolves over time with new versions, you can expect to get callbacks for new object types such as new actions or new properties on objects. As such, it's important not to assume any particular order in callbacks to keep code most compatible with traversal callbacks. Or if you use inequality checks in filter clauses remember that new "stuff" may satisfy an inequality check which may or may not be anticipated in your logic.

Note: This traverse method is a helper method and is very handy for iterating over Architect Scripting objects and their properties in a generic fashion with filtering capabilities. Obviously you can write your own custom traversal code if this implementation doesn't cut it for some reason. :)

This function returns the number of times it called the callback function.

Parameters:
Name Type Attributes Default Description
callbackFunction callbackTraverseInfo

the callback function to call for objects that match the traverse filter.
traverseFilter ArchFilterObject <optional>
 ArchFactoryFilters#createFilterTraverseDefault

the filter to use when performing the traversal to determine which ArchBaseCoreObject instances you wish to be called back for. If no filter is specified, this function will call ArchFactoryFilters#createFilterTraverseDefault and use that traversal default filter. The wantArchBaseValues parameter on that call is set to true.
Returns:
number
