Creating new node when article saved

Thank you jurgenhaas. Of course it should be set not get. Ugh. Also important to use the token name for the entity, not the entity machine name. Brilliant.
I'm keen to explore ECA using the example models in the ECA Library. Can you make any suggestions as to why I couldn't apply the recipe? I've looked at the message "The configuration 'node.type.article' exists already and does not match the recipe's configuration
recipe [-i|--input INPUT] [--]" and wonder if it means the article content type in the recipe isn't the default structure that comes with a new Drupal build? Any pointers so I can play with the library material would be great.
Thanks again for your speedy solution to my problem!

Thanks.

I've amended recipe.yml as below

name: 'Auto create entity with values from another one and the current user'
description: |-
This model reacts upon creating a new page node. It then creates a new article node, its title is populated with the page auther's name, some static text and the title of the created page.

The [recorded video](https://tube.tchncs.de/w/2nSZ9TDmtZ5YYrnyFfaNUC) provides more explanation as we go on.
type: 'Modeler API'
install:
- eca_content
config:
strict: false

But running the code to apply the recipe ( taken from the Library documentation) from the web root fails as below:

[root@127518 d11tmqp]# dir
composer.json composer.lock recipes vendor vendor.zip web web.zip
[root@127518 d11tmqp]# php core/scripts/drupal recipe ../recipes/eca_lib_0020
Could not open input file: core/scripts/drupal
[root@127518 d11tmqp]#

(I tried inserting a dash before strict: false i.e
config:
- strict: false
but I get the same message)

The web root is d11tmqp. Drupal version is 11.2.3 The folder structure follows from a Drupal install with composer where the files in the web directory are...
[root@127518 web]# dir
autoload.php example.gitignore INSTALL.txt profiles recipes sites update.php
core index.php modules README.md robots.txt themes
[root@127518 web]#

Does this help identify what's causing the error message? Thanks for any on-going help you can give on this.

Thanks for your continued help.
Sorry if I'm being silly on this but I'm getting a new error when I run the script from the web directory. Here's the snippet...

[root@127518 web]# php core/scripts/drupal recipe ../recipes/eca_lib_0020
In RecipeFileException.php line 56:

Here is the amended recipe.yml...

(BTW - The video in the recipe is really helpful!)

Sorry!

Thank you.

But I still get an error when using the recipe.yml you have verified.

The snippet below shows running php core/scripts/drupal recipe ../recipes/eca_lib_0020 from the /web folder.

[root@127518 eca_lib_0020]# sudo vi recipe.yml
[root@127518 eca_lib_0020]# cd ..
[root@127518 recipes]# cd ..

[root@127518 web]#

The web server error log does not contain any error.

The site is hosted by cPanel and is running php 8.3. The Drupal version is 11.2.3.

You have got the model import to work so unless your set up is significantly different to mine, it looks like the problem is at my end. I've tried to think if I'm doing something silly, but nothing comes to mind. Unless you have any futher ideas for me to try, I suggest you close this issue as fixed. Over the coming days, I'll try another model and maybe return to this one set up on another domain/server. But as each of the models has a video, it makes importing the model code less important as I can copy it from the slides. Thanks again for your persistence with this!

Thank you. I'll do this and post back.

I've succesfully installed the "Auto create entity with values from another one and the current user" example on a new D10.5.2 site with ECA 3.0.8 and BPMN.io 3.0.2. Without any recipe.yml editing.

Here are the command line instructions:
[root@127518 web]# php core/scripts/drupal recipe ../recipes/eca_lib_0020
2/2 [▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓▓]
Applied Auto create entity with values from another one and the current user recipe.
[OK] Auto create entity with values from another one and the current user applied successfully
[root@127518 web]#

All looks good but the model, which appears in the list with the title 'dummy', just shows an Article Create start event. This can't be right. I sense I'm doing something wrong! I've uploaded the model as installed.

Sorry about the delay in coming back. I'll re-check the versions - problem right now is I can't remember which test site I used! I'll post back shortly.

Found site. You are right BPMN.iO Version: 2.0.11 Drupal 10.5.2 ECA 2.1.6 Sorry to mess you around. One thing I'm fairly sure I was right over is that the model did come from the ECA Examples page. But best thing is over the next day or so, I'll create another D10 site and try again.

I've built a fresh D10.5.2 installed in a sub-domain. All works I believe up to the application of the recipe which fails because a command cannot be found.

The details of what I've done follow.

BPMN.iO Version: 2.0.11. ECA Version: 2.1.17 php Version 8.3.28.
I can build a simple ECA model which works fine.

I have run composer require drupal-eca-recipe/eca_lib_0020 as follows:

Running php core/scripts/drupal recipe ../recipes/eca_lib_0020 from the /web directory produces an error.

[root@mystifying-taussig test500.xxx.com]# cd web

If I've not exhausted your patience, maybe your can explain what I'm doing wrong. Thanks.

Edited:

I've found the directory where the drupal file is run: test500.xxx.com/web/core/scripts and tried running drupal recipe ../recipes/eca_lib_0020 from here...

[root@mystifying-taussig scripts]# drupal recipe ../recipes/eca_lib_0020
-bash: drupal: command not found

php drupal recipe ../recipes/eca_lib_0020 gives a similar error.

Thanks.

I've installed Drush and tried the model install using...

drush recipe ../recipes/eca_lib_0020

This is D 10.3.10 php 8.4.15

The composer install of the model works but when I try to apply the recipe with Drush I get another error in ConfigConfigurator.php line 47 - "The configuration 'node.type.article' exists already and does not match the recipe's configuration"

Here's the full install script...

Is this still another OS issue? If it is then I'll try it on a cPanel platform.

Good point. Will do. Thanks.

What excellent advice!
