Workflow Replenishment Module

[Habbni]

Since you work on a new workflow editor, i wanted to share a modest module that enhances the existing workflow, before it´s too late and nobody cares anymore :/

First, it adds tooltips to the outcomes. Simple but effective, as it can be incredibly annoying to attach nodes without those:

Second, it hooks into the activity add/edit posts to open modal dialogs instead of a full page load everytime. It considers modified outcomes and validation errors in this process:

The tooltips could have been much easier and cleaner merged into the main platform and I would happily provide a pull request for that.

But because loading everything into a modal is more complicated and a little hacky, I´ve bundled everything into a module so it can simply be enabled/disabled. The code is also highly unoptimised, but used in a few internal projects so far:

Looks good, thanks for sharing! The Workflows module won't be discontinued any time soon. What I presume you've seen is Sipke's Elsa Workflows demo. Once ready, that will be an alternative workflow engine in OC, but for now at least, not built in into OC.

The link you posted is a 404, though.

I see. Looking forward to that alternative then ;)

Regarding the 404, I moved the repo into the wrong organisation.
Another case of newborn distraction I guess, just updated the link.

Thank you!

How did you manage to figure out how to add items to the html?

Very impressive, thanks for sharing.
