Note This plugin is currently under active development and still in an early stage. Check the roadmap below in this readme for more details / upcoming features.

The most recent version of payload-workflow currently only supports Payload 2.0 and up. For older payload versions, please use payload-workflow@0.2.0

$ yarn add payload-workflow

import { payloadWorkflow } from 'payload-workflow';

const config = buildConfig({
  collections: [ ... ],
  plugins: [
    payloadWorkflow({
      'my-collection-slug': {
        statuses: [
          {value: 'draft', label: 'Draft'},
          {value: 'in-progress', label: 'In Progress'},
          {value: 'ready-for-review', label: 'Ready for review'},
          {value: 'published', label: 'Published'},
        ],
        defaultStatus: 'draft',
        hideNoStatusColumn: false
      }
    })
  ],
});

The workflow plugin introduces a new field called workflowStatus. This field does not interact with the draft/publish system of Payload.

You can "integrate" the workflow status with the draft/publish system of Payload yourself by using Payloads hooks.

For example: Automatically publish the document when the workflowStatus has been changed to published.

• [X] Payload 2.0 support
• [ ] Customize card properties (currently displays title and createdAt)
• [ ] Edit relationships directly from the card (e.g., assigning users to a document)
• [X] Toggleable column for posts without a workflow status (Currently, documents lacking workflowStatus aren't visible on the board)
• [ ] Lazy loading of column contents when scrolling (Currently, board only shows defaultLimit amount of cards)
• [ ] Permissions for changing statuses
• [ ] Allowed transitions between statuses
• [ ] Integration with the draft/publish system of Payload (?)
