- 15. Create a Task ! ! Task task = new Task(); ! // this maps to your task definition task.setName(yourTask); ! // relevant data for e.g. displaying in the Pulse. task.setContent(new HashMap() {{ .put(some, data) }}); ! // set actors task.setActorIds(susan, peter) ! tasksManager.addTask(task);
- 16. Use TaskManger ! /** * Inject the TaskManager into your classes. */ @Inject public MyClass(TasksManager tasksManager) { this.taskManager = taskManager } !
- 17. Email Notifications ! TaskEmailService implements TaskEventHandler { ! @Inject public(@Named(SystemEventBus.NAME) EventBus eventBus) { eventBus.addHandler(TaskEvent.class, this); } ! @Override public void taskResolved(TaskEvent taskEvent) { // send email code goes here } ! }
