Valtimo backend libraries (9.19.0)

New Features

The following features were added:

• Filter out plugin configurations without actions of a service type

  The plugin configuration can now be filtered based on an activityType (i.e. Service Task), that will ensure that any plugin configuration that is returned has an action for that activityType.

  The REST endpoint GET /api/plugin/configuration now supports a new request parameter called activityType which expects the type of task that was clicked in the process. Example: GET /api/plugin/configuration?activityType=bpmn:ServiceTask.

• New form flow onBack property

  Form flows already supported the onOpen and onComplete properties. The onBack property has been added that is triggered when navigating to a previous step. Information on how to use these properties in a form flow can be found here.

Bugfixes

The following bugs were fixed:

• JdbcProcessFormAssociationRepository insert statement runtime exception

  Running on an externally hosted Mysql 8.0.15 instance caused unknown column type exceptions with useServerPrepStmts. For more information see. To prevent determining the sql column type now the type is specified.

Breaking changes

The following breaking changes were introduced:

• Form flow onBack property is null for existing records

Instructions on how to migrate to this version of Valtimo can be found here.

Deprecations

No new deprecations.

Known issues

This version has the following known issues:

• Multiple existing form associations on process definition

  When multiple start forms are associated with a single process definition the user is unable to start a new case of that specific type.

• Updating process variables from a form.io submission Only process variables of type String and Array<String> are currently supported by the pv. form.io prefix. Any other types will be set to a null value.

• Form flow definition does not read nextStep property

  • Discovered in version 9.19.0

  • Instead of using nextStep, nextSteps can be used.
