Hi all,
Did you use the simpleWorkflow behavior with yii 1.x and felt abandoned since you migrate to Yii2 ? This time is over thanks to yii2-workflow.
You don’t have any idea about what a workflow is ? Think about a Post model in a blog system. A post can have several statues. For example it can be draft (not visible in front-end), to-approve (waiting for publication) , published (visible to visitors), archived (visible in the Archive section), canceled, etc … All these statuses are linked together by transitions : a draft Post can go to to-approve but not directly to published… it all depends on the business rule you need to implement.
If you have 4 statuses managing the transitions among them is not so difficult, but imagine you have a complex workflow with 10 or 20 statuses and plenty of transitions between these statuses …it can turn into a nightmare to handle. In this case, yii2-workflow is here to help and turn this nightmare into a sweet dream.
