The BulkDispatchWorkflows.cs activity in Elsa.Workflows.Runtime module has been updated with some key changes: Added detailed description to the input element, introduced the dispatchedInstancesCount to accurately track the number of instances dispatched, and removed some unnecessary white spaces for improved readability.
The ActivityKind property in BulkDispatchWorkflows class has been changed from Job to Task. This updates the type of activity associated with the BulkDispatchWorkflows process within the Elsa workflow runtime module.
Background activities scheduling was moved to its own middleware where the actual scheduling happens instead of in the invoking middleware. Removed ScheduleBackgroundActivities.cs handler and added ScheduleBackgroundActivitiesMiddleware.cs instead. As a part of this change, restructured BackgroundActivityInvokerMiddleware to BackgroundActivityCollectorMiddleware, and updated all relevant references.
Minor modifications to a few other files include changes in their package dependencies and activity kind settings.
Modified methods in the WorkflowInstance.cs to implement re-entrant approach for asynchronous execution. This is achieved by replacing 'await' with task-based calls passed through the Context.ReenterAfter method, providing more efficient non-blocking operations. Minor changes were also made in ClusterExtensions.cs and ProtoActorWorkflowRuntime.cs, including code clean up and slight modifications to maintain consistency.
The changes introduce a batch processing mechanism in the BulkDispatchWorkflows activity. Previously, each workflow was dispatched individually. Now, the process groups the workflows in batches, processes each batch concurrently, and handles errors. This change improves performance, particularly for large data sources.
Simplified README.md by removing in-depth Console and ASP.NET Core examples, as well as mentions about building from source, serving overall clarity and readability. Added descriptions for coded and visual workflow design possibilities.
The JavaScriptEvaluator now accepts an options parameter of type ExpressionEvaluatorOptions. This allows adding custom arguments to the evaluation context. An 'Empty' static instance of ExpressionEvaluatorOptions is added for convenience. Additionally, the usage of MassTransitAzureServiceBus in Program.cs is turned off by setting the flag to 'false'.
This commit includes new integration tests for implicit join scenarios. The tests ensure that join and parallel join activities execute correctly and complete as expected. Additionally, a change has been made to the workflow execution context to prevent duplicate activity scheduling. Now, aside from checking if the activity is already scheduled, it also checks if the activity is scheduled for the specified owner.
Fixes#4703
The current diff modifies the description of the Docker image in the README file. The revised description consolidates information about the image, its reference ASP.NET application nature, and its non-production intention into a single, more succinct sentence.
The README file was reorganized to make it more readable by grouping related badges together. Additionally, instructions on how to start the Elsa Docker container were appended for users who want to quickly try out the Elsa Studio and Elsa Server.
The package references for Elsa.Studio, Elsa.Studio.Core.BlazorWasm, and Elsa.Studio.Login.BlazorWasm in Elsa.AllInOne.Web and ElsaStudioWebAssembly projects were updated. The version has been changed from 3.0.0-preview.160 to 3.0.0-preview.164 to incorporate the latest features and bug fixes.
This commit enhances the configuration options for the MassTransit integration, providing additional settings for both Azure Service Bus and RabbitMq. It also refines the MassTransit workflow dispatcher configuration by allowing for custom dispatcher options. A default RabbitMq connection string has been added to the appsettings.json.
AzureServiceBusOption.cs and RabbitMqOptions.cs files were removed as they're no longer needed. The system now defers the configuration of MassTransit and AzureServiceBus to the application layer (Program.cs). The configuration for PrefetchCount is also allowed at the transport-level. A new abstraction, ConsumerTypeDefinition, collects all the consumer types with their respective definitions if provided. Adjustments have been made in related extension methods and classes to reflect these changes.
A new method, GetIsWorkflowDefinitionActivity, has been added to the ActivityExtensions class. This method checks a given JsonObject representing an activity to determine if it's a workflow definition activity. It returns true if the activity indeed is; otherwise, it returns false.
The README updates include specific instructions for running the Elsa server on port 5001 and the Elsa studio application on port 6001. These enhanced guidelines provide comprehensive steps for configuring the applications regarding authentication, module usage, and use of API endpoints.
The README.md file has been updated to include badges for packages, continuous delivery, and discussions related to Elsa workflows. These badges provide quick access to key information and resources like Nuget, npm, GitHub Actions, feedz.io, Docker, Discord, Stack Overflow, and subreddit subscribers.
Numerous unused and obsolete files have been removed from various designer packages including angular-workspace, elsa-workflows-designer, react-workspace, and others. This cleanup enhances the maintainability of the project by eliminating unnecessary files and reducing clutter.
The npm-packages.yml workflow has been removed. The branch triggers in the workflows npm-packages.yml, packages.yml, and all-in-one-web.yml have been changed from 'v3' to 'main'. An unnecessary reference to the deleted workflow file npm-packages.yml is also removed from Elsa.sln.
The visuals and their respective descriptions on the README page have been updated. A new image has been added at the top of the document, and one existing image and its caption are updated to better describe the content.
In this update, a "Building from Source" section was added to the README.md file. This section provides instructions on how to build and test the current project using the .NET 6 SDK or later. It also includes steps to run the Elsa.AllInOne.Web project.
Added detailed instructions in the README file on how to update the Program.cs file with the UseScheduling() method. Also made modifications to the HeartbeatWorkflow class to use the Elsa.Scheduling.Activities.Timer.
This commit improves the README by providing in-depth instructions on how to run the application and examples of more complex workflows. In addition, it includes details on creating an ASP.NET Core application to act as a workflow server and demonstrates how to handle HTTP requests using workflows.
Removed the project reference to Elsa.Elasticsearch in Elsa.Scheduling.csproj. This reference is no longer in use and removing it simplifies the project dependencies.
This commit refactors how expression descriptors are created and retrieved across Elsa project. The asynchronous methods have been simplified to synchronous ones removing unnecessary `ValueTask` returns. Additionally, `IExpressionDescriptorRegistryPopulator` has been removed resulting in less complexity and better performance.
The short description of Capsules under the feature list has been updated for clarity. The updated description more accurately reflects that Capsules are "hot" deployable workflow packages that contain activities and configuration.
The Elsa logo image has been moved in the README for better visualization. This small reordering aims to improve overall project documentation readability and presentation.

The examples were also refined to make them clearer and more digestible.
The Elsa.Studio, Elsa.Studio.Core, and Elsa.Studio.Login packages have been updated across the projects Elsa.AllInOne.Web and ElsaStudioWebAssembly, from Ver. 3.0.0-preview.148 to Ver. 3.0.0-preview.160. In the Program.cs of ElsaStudioWebAssembly, the authentication mechanism has been adjusted by specifying an AuthenticatingApiHttpMessageHandler for the HttpMessageHandler in the method AddRemoteBackend().
The PR body generator workflow has been removed from the repository. This includes the deletion of the workflow configuration file (pr-body-generator.yml) under the GitHub Actions workflows directory and the removal of reference to it in the Elsa.sln file.
The ApiHttpMessageHandler and the related configuration in ElsaClientOptions have been removed. The configuration for creating Api clients in DependencyInjectionExtensions has been updated to handle these changes. This includes the addition of a retry policy in case of transient HTTP error and changing the way clients are created to use the HttpClientFactory directly.
Removed HttpResponseHeaders class and refactored HttpRequestHeaders class into HttpHeaders. This commit merges the separate classes to represent HTTP headers into a single class, HttpHeaders. It also includes updates to the related files like HttpJavaScriptHandler and SendHttpRequestBase to reflect these changes.
