Using iteration Item in IF

[andreasfrei]

Hello
I would like to use from a ForEach statement the iteration item in the IF.

Something like this:

        steps.ForEach(data => data.WorkflowEvent.Actions)
                .Do(ac => ac
                    .StartWith<ExecuteAction>().Input((step, data, context) => step.inConsumerAction = (ConsumerAction)context.Item)
                    .If(ac => ac.ActionType == "ABC")
                        .Do(then => then
                            .StartWith<PrintMessage>()
                            .Input(step => step.Message, data => "Value is less than 3")
                            )
                    )

With "context.Item" i can get to the iteration item, but not in the IF statement. Is this somehow possible?

You should be able to include a second parameter on the lambda for the context object

Something like

.Input(step => step.Message, (data, context) => "Value is less than " + context.Item)

I think he means he has no access to the Context.Item from the .If condition - having the same problem myself ;)

Just found this #338...

It was not so clear from my side. I would need access to the context.Item in the If condition.

in the below statements I can use the "ac" as an iteration element. Making a separate Step with "ExecutionAction" I could also not finde a solution to use the executionAction.Output. Is there any way to access the iteration step variable in an If. I need to decide for the further flow?

Thanks, and good work with workflowcore!

steps.ForEach(data => data.WorkflowEvent.Actions)
.Do(ac => ac
.StartWith().Input((step, data, context) => step.inConsumerAction = (ConsumerAction)context.Item)
.If(ac => ac.ActionType == "ABC")
.Do(then => then
.StartWith()
.Input(step => step.Message, data => "Value is less than 3")
)
)
