The method ``getName`` returns a string to identify the registered provider in the user interface.
The method ``process`` implements the text processing step. In case execution fails for some reason, you should throw a ``\OCP\TaskProcessing\Exception\ProcessingException`` with an explanatory error message. Important to note here is that ``Image``, ``Audio``, ``Video`` and ``File`` slots in the input array will be filled with ``\OCP\Files\File`` objects for your convenience. When outputting one of these you should simply return a string, the API will turn the data into a proper file for convenience. The ``$reportProgress`` parameter is a callback that you may use at will to report the task progress as a single float value between 0 and 1. Its return value will indicate if the task is still running (``true``) or if it was cancelled (``false``) and processing should be terminated.

Providing supplemental inputs and outputs
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Built-in task types often only specify the most basic input and output slots. If you would like to offer more input options
with your provider you can specify optional inputs and outputs using the ``getOptionalInputShape`` and ``getOptionalOutputShape`` methods.
You will need to return an associative array of ``\OCP\TaskProcessing\ShapeDescriptor`` objects.
.. code-block:: php
public function getOptionalInputShape(): array {
return [
'tone' => new ShapeDescriptor($this->l->t('Tone of voice'), $this->l->t('Set the tone of voice to be used for the output'), EShapeType::Text)
];
}
In the same vein you can also provide optional output shape slots in addition to the pre-defined output slots.
.. code-block:: php
public function getOptionalOutputShape(): array {
return [
'co2_emissions' => new ShapeDescriptor($this->l->t('CO2 Emissions'), $this->l->t('The CO2 emissions produced by running this task in metric tons'), EShapeType::Number)
];
}
Providing input defaults
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
With the method ``getInputShapeDefaults`` you can specify default values for input slots (which are defined by the task type). For example:
.. code-block:: php
public function getInputShapeDefaults(): array {
return [
'input' => 'There was once a man with many cows who wanted to have even more cows.'
];
}
Note that you can only specify default values for 'Text' and 'Number' slots.
The same works for your optional input shapes that you defined in ``getOptionalInputShape``:
.. code-block:: php
public function getOptionalInputShapeDefaults(): array {
return [
'tone' => 'Formal'
];
}
Working with Enum shape types
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Both input and output shapes as well as the optional input and output shapes allow declaring slots of type ``'Enum'``. An Enum
is a type that only allows values from a pre-defined set. In the case of the TaskProcessing API this set is not defined by the task type, but
by the provider implementing the task type using ``getInputShapeEnumValues``, ``getOutputShapeEnumValues``, ``getOptionalInputShapeEnumValues`` and ``getOptionalOutputShapeEnumValues``.
You could, for example, implement the above tone of voice slot using an Enum:
.. code-block:: php
public function getOptionalInputShape(): array {
return [
'tone' => new ShapeDescriptor($this->l->t('Tone of voice'), $this->l->t('Set the tone of voice to be used for the output'), EShapeType::Enum)
];
}
.. code-block:: php
public function getOptionalInputShapeEnumValues(): array {
return [
'tone' => [
new ShapeEnumValue($this->l->t('Simple'), 'So that a kid could understand'),
new ShapeEnumValue($this->l->t('Funny'), 'Funny'),
new ShapeEnumValue($this->l->t('Formal'), 'Formal'),
]
];
}
