Class LifeCycle

  com.bea.content.virtual.lifecycle.LifeCycle

All Implemented Interfaces:

Serializable

public class LifeCycle

extends Object

implements Serializable

Represents the Life Cycle for a Node and defines the valid status transitions. Below are valid transitions available with the current status:
From New (no status yet) to DRAFT to READY to PUBLISHED if user is in a publisher role to RETIRED if user is in a publisher role From DRAFT to READY to PUBLISHED if user is in a publisher role to RETIRED if user is in a publisher role From READY to REJECTED if user is in a publisher role to PUBLISHED if user is in a publisher role to RETIRED if user is in a publisher role From REJECTED to DRAFT to READY From PUBLISHED - there are no valid transitions from PUBLISHED. When a PUBLISHED Node is checked out it automatically goes to DRAFT so it can never transition from a PUBLISHED status. From RETIRED to DRAFT to READY to PUBLISHED if user is in a publisher role Upon status transition the following occurs: --> Status transition to READY : Assigned to user will be null. Assigned To Roles will be set to the roles that can publish this node --> Status transition to PUBLISHED : Assigned to user will be null. Assigned To Roles will be null --> Status transition to REJECTED : Assigned to roles will be null. Assigned to user will be the last user (who is not in the publishers role for that node) that was editing the node. This is an invalid status for a new content item/node. --> Status transition to RETIRED : Assigned to user will be set to null. --> Status transition to DRAFT : Assigned to user will remain as it is.

Method Detail

buildTaxonomy

public String buildTaxonomy(ID nodeId)
                     throws AuthenticationException,
                            AuthorizationException,
                            NoSuchNodeException,
                            RepositoryException

Build a taxonomy for the node id

Parameters:

nodeId -

Returns:

Throws:

AuthenticationException

AuthorizationException

NoSuchNodeException

RepositoryException

debugGetStatusText

public String debugGetStatusText(int status)

Debug method to return a string equivalent of the status

Parameters:

status - The status integer

Returns:

A string indicating the type of status

getId

public String getId(ID id)

getPublishRolesForNode

public Set getPublishRolesForNode(ID nodeId)
                           throws AuthenticationException,
                                  AuthorizationException,
                                  NoSuchNodeException,
                                  RepositoryException

Return all the published roles for the node represented by the node id. This will not only find the published role on that node id, but will also try to find published roles which are inherited by the node id. Finally, it will append the "Admin" role to the publish roles list.

Parameters:

nodeId -

Returns:

A Set of string roles for the given node id.

Throws:

AuthenticationException

AuthorizationException

NoSuchNodeException

RepositoryException

getStatusTransitions

public List getStatusTransitions(ContentContext context,
                                 ID nodeId,
                                 int currentStatus)

Returns a list of valid status transitions for the user. The list contains Integer values of Status Transitions.

Parameters:

context -

currentStatus -

Returns:

isUserInRole

public boolean isUserInRole(ContentContext context,
                            Set set)
                     throws com.bea.p13n.entitlements.common.EntitlementsException

Checks to see if the current user is in any one of the passed in roles for that particular node

Parameters:

set - A set of passed in string roles.

Returns:

true or false indicating whether the user is in that role or not

Throws:

com.bea.p13n.entitlements.common.EntitlementsException
