Automation

This section is about how to run automation with Nuxeo PHP Client.

Operation manager is instantiated for each automation to run, this gives us high isolation for each request to automation.

Automation input can be anything you want, Blob, Blobs, Document, Documents or primitive type. To give a document reference as input to automation, you need to use DocRef.

Automation output is dynamic and leverage marshaller capabilities in order to return proper PHP object.

Document.Create

Let's create a file:

$file = $client->operation("Document.Create")
    ->param("name", "file001")
    ->param("type", "File")
    ->param("properties", "dc:title=My File\ndc:description=A short description")
    ->input(new DocRef("/"))
    ->execute(Document::class);

Document.Update

Now, update it:

$file = $client->operation("Document.Update")
    ->param("properties", "dc:nature=card")
    ->input($file)
    ->execute(Document::class);

We can also do:

$file = $client->operation("Document.Update")
    ->param("properties", "dc:nature=card")
    ->input(new DocRef("/file001"))
    ->execute(Document::class);

Blob.Attach

Now that the document exists, we can attach a blob to our it:

$client->operation("Blob.Attach")
    ->param("document", "/file001")
    ->param("xpath", "file:content")
    ->input(Blob::fromFile('/tmp/myFile', 'plain/text'))
    ->voidOperation(true) // allows to not download blob in response
    ->execute();

Blob.Get

Let's download our blob:

$client->operation("Blob.Get")
    ->param("xpath", "file:content")
    ->input(new DocRef("/file001"))
    ->execute(Blob::class);
