Moving the primary process id from the workflow model to the file model, and assuring it is updated properly. This was causing a bug that would "lose" the workflow.
Found a problem where the documentation for elements was being processed BEFORE data was loaded from a script. There still may be some issues here.
Ran into an issue with circular dependencies - handling it with a new workflow_service, and pulling computational logic out of the api_models - it was the right thing to do.
Adding id and spec_version to the workflow metadata.
Refactoring the processing of the master_spec so that it doesn't polute the workflow database.
Adding tests to assure that the status and counts are updated on the workflow model as users make progress.
Created a Study object (seperate from the StudyModel) that can cronstructed on request, and contains a different data structure than we store in the DB. This allows us to return underlying Categories and Workflows in a clean way.
Added a new status to workflows called "not_started", meaning we have not yet instantiated a processor or created a BPMN, they have no version yet and no stored data, just the possiblity of being started.
The Top Level Workflow or "Master" workflow is now a part of the sample data, and loaded at all times.
Removed the ability to "add a workflow to a study" and "remove a workflow from a study", a study contains all possible workflows by definition.
Example data no longer creates users or studies, it just creates the specs.
Added a validate_workflow_specification endpoint that allows you to check if the workflow will execute from beginning to end using random data.
Minor fixes to existing bpmns to allow them to pass.
All scripts must include a "do_task_validate_only" that restricts external calls and database modifications, but performs as much logic as possible.
Split the API specific models out from the workflow models to help me keep this straight.
Added tests to help me understand the errors thrown the and resolution path when a workflow specification changes in the midst of a running workflow.
A workflow specification knows it's version number, which is generated by the version of the files that make it up.
A workflow specification version number is the primary file (the lead BPMN) followed by a consistency ordered version each extra file associated with the workflow. A change in any file modifies the specifications version.
Adding a new script that script tasks can use to add in data about the study.
Moving all the test workflow specifications out of the main load.
fixing a pile of tests so they can find workflow specs that are now moved into the test directory.
