cloudreach / flow Goto Github PK

Copied from Jira ticket PDEV-1936. The suggestion from @sftrabbit is:

= Context
Flow tasks get their input from storage by fetching the row with the corresponding task ID. The default task is usually executed by passing no task ID and the task name "default", and nothing gets fetched from storage. Therefore, there is no way to pass input to the default task (without some shenanigans).

= Done When
There is some clear and concise mechanism for passing input to the default task. Perhaps the task handler takes an optional third parameter that overrides task input if there is no task ID? Not sure.

Copied from Jira ticket PDEV-1978. The suggestion from @sftrabbit is that:

• All uses of .then or other Promise-chaining shenanigans are replaced by appropriate use of async and await.

Copied from Jira ticket PDEV-1940. The proposal from @sftrabbit is that:

• You can provide the HTTP executor an object mapping task names to URLs.
• When starting a task with a particular name, it sends the request to the corresponding URL.
