Activiti : use custom process variable in JS

[glpcq]

Hi,

I try to use a process variable in a script of my workflow. Here's what I did :

Model :

<type name="mywf:startTask">

  <parent>wf:submitAdhocTask</parent>
     <properties>
        <property name="mywf:newFoldersParent">
          <type>d:noderef</type>
          <mandatory>true</mandatory>
       </property>
   </properties>
</type>

Workflow :

<startEvent id="start" name="Start" activiti:formKey="mywf:startTask"></startEvent>
<userTask id="myTask" name="Saisie Matricule" activiti:assignee="${bpm_assignee.properties.userName}" activiti:formKey="mywf:userTask">
  <extensionElements>
    <activiti:taskListener event="complete" class="org.alfresco.repo.workflow.activiti.tasklistener.ScriptTaskListener">
      <activiti:field name="script">
      <activiti:string><![CDATA[var file = bpm_package.children[0];

var newFoldersParentRef = mywf_newFoldersParent;
var dest = search.newFoldersParentRef);
var folder = dest.createFolder('New folder');
file.move(folder);
}]]></activiti:string>
      </activiti:field>
    </activiti:taskListener>
  </extensionElements>
</userTask>

Script:

var workflow = actions.create("start-workflow");
workflow.parameters.workflowName = "activiti$mywf";
workflow.parameters["bpm:workflowDescription"] = "My workflow";
workflow.parameters["bpm:workflowPackage"] = document;
workflow.parameters["bpm:assignee"] = people.getPerson(document.properties['cm:creator']);
var futureDate = new Date();
futureDate.setDate(futureDate.getDate() + 3);
workflow.parameters["bpm:workflowDueDate"] = futureDate;
workflow.parameters["mywf:newFoldersParent"] = companyhome.childByNamePath("Sites/mysite/documentLibrary/new_folders").nodeRef;
workflow.execute(document);

What's the correct way to access the variable mywf:newFoldersParent in the script ? I tried execution.getVariable('mywf:newFoldersParent'), execution.getVariable('mywf_newFoldersParent') : none of them work. I looked in the workflow console (desc path activiti$1234) => the property is set correctly with the script.

I use Alfresco 5.2.f with the SDK (3.1.0).

Thanks in advance

You can use execution.getVariable() and task.getVariable() to get value of workflow variables in script.

In your scrit you can use like below: 

var newFoldersParentRef = execution.getVariable("mywf_newFoldersParent");
