-
readonly logStrTypeOnly :string
-
This is a string suitable for logging information about this object where it's just the object's type. This is normally used when logging errors that occur in constructor parameter checking because the scripting object isn't set up and the normal logging str contents wouldn't be set up.
- Inherited From:
-
readonly supportsCase :boolean
-
Returns whether or not the language supports case which means it supports at least one of the following case properties:
-
readonly supportsCaseAccusative :boolean
-
Returns whether or not the language supports the concept of accusative case.
-
readonly supportsCaseArticle :boolean
-
Returns whether or not the language supports the concept of article case.
-
readonly supportsCaseDative :boolean
-
Returns whether or not the language supports the concept of dative case.
-
readonly supportsCaseGenitive :boolean

readonly supportsGender :boolean
-
Returns whether or not the language supports gender which means it supports at least one of the following gender properties:
-
readonly supportsGenderCommon :boolean
-
Returns whether or not the language supports the concept of common gender.
-
readonly supportsGenderFeminine :boolean

-
readonly tag :string
-
The IETF language tag for this language. Remember when dealing with language tag strings that your code should treat them case insensitively.
-
readonly ttsEngines :Array.<ArchTtsEngine>
-
Returns the text to speech engines that support this language. If the
areTtsEnginesAndVoicesAvailable
property returns false, nothing will be returned. Accessing this property when the Architect Scripting session is notconnected
or if the organization does not support text to speech engine / voice information available will throw. You can accessareTtsEnginesAndVoicesAvailable
to see if text to speech engine and voice information is available on an organization.Properties:
Name Type Description ttsEngines
Methods
-
getDefaultTtsEngine() → {ArchTtsEngine}
-
Returns the default text to speech engine that is available for this language. If this language does not have a default text to speech engine, nothing is returned. Remember that a default TTS engine may not always be available for a given flow type.
Throws:
Calling this method when the Architect Scripting session is not
connected
will throw.Returns:
ArchTtsEngine -
getDefaultTtsEngineVoice() → {ArchTtsVoice}
-
This is a helper function that calls
ArchLanguage#getDefaultTtsEngine
to get the default text to speech engine for this language. If there is one returned, execution then callsArchTtsEngine#getDefaultVoiceForLanguage
on that engine and passes in this language to get the default voice if there is one configured on the default engine.Throws:
Calling this method when the Architect Scripting session is not
connected
will throw.Returns:
ArchTtsVoice -
getTtsEnginesForFlowType(flowType) → {Array.<ArchTtsEngine>}
-
Returns an array of text to speech engines that are valid for this language and the supplied flow type. If the supplied flow type is not available for the organization, an empty array will be returned.
Parameters:
Name Type Description flowType
string the flow type to check.
ArchEnums#FLOW_TYPES
lists valid flow type strings.Throws:
Calling this method when the Architect Scripting session is not
connected
will throw.Returns:
Array.<ArchTtsEngine> -
isFilterMatch(archFilterObject) → {boolean}
-
Returns whether or not this Architect Scripting object is a match for the supplied ArchFilterObject instance.
Parameters:
Name Type Description archFilterObject
ArchFilterObject the object filter to use to determine if it's a match.
Returns:
boolean- Inherited From:

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 anArchTraverseInfo
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 callingArchFactoryFilters#createFilterObject
and then add desired clauses or clause containers to it. If not specified, this function will use adefault 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 onany type of transfer action
, anydecision 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
orlanguageSettings
. 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 anArchActionJumpToMenu
action that it would not start traversing in to the menu that it jumps to. Another example would be aArchActionChangeState
action where it would not traverse in to the target state of the action. This also means traversal does not traverse in to theArchBaseValue#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 callArchFactoryFilters#createFilterTraverseDefault
and use that traversal default filter. The wantArchBaseValues parameter on that call is set to true.Returns:
