Rules integration for this module would be amazing, I think that would mean rules events when progression events take place, rules conditions to check a progress, and rules actions to set progress. Not having looked at the code this is mostly a wishlist without a clue if it makes total sense :)

Hi

Hmmm. Perhaps that could make sense. I've never thought about this for Rules. I originally made the module because I needed some kind of progress mechanism for Background Process, so I thought I might as well try to make a generic framework for this, and this Rules idea is right up this alley i guess. However, in retrospect it's a bit overengineered for the Background Process module, and I'm not sure anyone uses it for anything else, so I'm actually thinking about abandoning the Progress module as part of my Background Process 2.x project.

But this idea might spark some new life into this module :-).

I don't know when I'll have the time to take a look at it, but it sounds interesting. You're of course more than welcome to come up with a few patches, if you wan't to take a look at it yourself :-)

Awesome, thanks for the quick reply! I think it's well suited to usage with Rules at least from a high level view, if I get a chance to work it into my current project I'll send a patch for a simple condition & action
