name

Defines the extension point (e.g., Transition Executors) that is used in the lifecycle.

You can define only one extension point of a kind, because the underlined implementation ignores multiple elements and takes only one into consideration.

checkItems - If the user is defining check items as its child elements.
transitionExecution - If the data element defines programmable executions for transitions.

name Defines the name of the check item. ES allows you to define check items for each transition. N/A Optional

forEvent

Defines whether the check item is required for a specific transition. A check item can may be required needed for more than one event, in which case, a user you can give provide a comma (",") separated list for the forEvent attribute.

Info
The `forEvent` value is defined under the `<transition>` element with the event attributeevent attribute.

Null : - Keeping the forEvent attribute empty means that a specific check item is not required for any transition event.

Optional

name

This attribute defines the name of the parameter.

If you use the org.wso2.jaggery.scxml.generic.GenericExecutor executor, it is mandatory to specify the following default permissions as it is needed for the ES permission model.
- PERMISSION:get
- PERMISSION:add
- PERMISSION:delete
- PERMISSION:authorize
In addition, you can specify custom rules for specific user roles that are executed when various state transitions take place.

ES permission model related values
- PERMISSION:get
- PERMISSION:add
- PERMISSION:delete
- PERMISSION:authorize

The first four parameters are mandatory.

value

This attribute defines the value held by the parameter.

If you use the org.wso2.jaggery.scxml.generic.GenericExecutor executor, it is mandatory to specify the following default permissions names together with their corresponding values as it is needed for the ES permission model.
- PERMISSION:get
- PERMISSION:add
- PERMISSION:delete
- PERMISSION:authorize
In addition, you can specify custom rules for specific user roles that are executed when various state transitions take place. In each of these rules you can specify as to which permission is added or removed when the state transition takes place. Permissions are added and removed in the following manner:
- + <PERMISSION>For example, + delete means that the delete permission is added when the lifecycle state transition occurs.
- - <PERMISSION>For example, - delete means that the delete permission is removed when the lifecycle state transition occurs.

For example:

- Code Block
  <parameter name="STATE_RULE1:Created" value="Internal/private_{asset_author}:+get,+add,+delete,+authorize" />
  This means that when the lifecycle state changes to Created, the get, add, delete and authorize permissions are added to the private_{asset_author} user permission.
- Code Block
  <parameter name="STATE_RULE2:Created" value="Internal/reviewer:-get,-add,-delete,-authorize" />
  This means that when the lifecycle state changes to Created, the get, add, delete and authorize permissions are removed from the Internal/reviewer user permission.
- Code Block
  <parameter name="STATE_RULE3:Created" value="Internal/everyone:-get,-add,-delete,-authorize" />
  This means that when the lifecycle state changes to Created, the get, add, delete and authorize permissions are removed from the Internal/everyone user permission.
