pyvelm v0.6.0

Release date: 2026-05-23

Visual approval workflows — design state machines, run them on any model, and sign off from the form bar or a dedicated inbox.

Highlights

Workflow module

Install Apps → Workflows (module version 0.2.0, depends on base + admin).

  • Designer — /web/workflow/build: states, transitions, approval rules, stage forms (new fields or writable record fields), auto-start on create.
  • Runtime bar — on record forms: pipeline status bar, start/transition buttons, pending approve/reject when assigned to you.
  • My approvals — /web/workflow/inbox lists every pending sign-off; approve, reject, or open the underlying record.
  • Tasks — assigned approvers get workflow.task rows.
  • Escalation — cron job every 15 minutes for overdue approvals (install/sync seeds it).

Approval strategies: any (one approver), all (every group member), or sequential (one after another). Optional deadline hours and escalate-to-group.

All workflow dialogs use the draggable PvDialog component (pvConfirm for simple confirms; HTMX-loaded stage forms for transition fields).

Examples

  • Partners — partner onboarding workflow when both partners and workflow are installed (chatter + workflow state column).
  • Feedback Signals — “Feedback intake review” workflow seeded on sync when the workflow module is present.

See Workflows for the full guide.
