π§ Technical Implementation
Singularity Integration Details
Flow Attachment Service
// Location: libs/libs-structural/singularity-lib/src/lib/services/flow-attachment.service.ts
// Widget flow designer now uses:
import { FlowAttachmentService } from '@libs-structural/singularity-lib';
// Initialize for widget
await this.flowAttachment.initialize('widget', widgetId);
// Attach flow to widget event
const attachment = await this.flowAttachment.attachFlow(
flowId,
'widget',
widgetId,
{
trigger: { type: 'onClick' },
outputMapping: []
}
);
// Load all attachments
const attachments = await this.flowAttachment.getAttachments('widget', widgetId);
Event-to-Trigger Mapping
// Maps widget events to Singularity trigger types
private mapEventToTrigger(eventType) {
return {
'click': 'onClick',
'change': 'onChange',
'submit': 'onSubmit',
'load': 'onLoad',
'custom': 'custom'
}[eventType];
}
Flow Loading
// Loads available flows from Singularity storage
const flowsKey = 'singularity/flows';
const flows = await this.storage.get(flowsKey) || [];
// Displays in flow selector UI
this.availableFlows.set(flows.map(f => ({
id: f.id,
name: f.name,
description: f.description
})));

π Usage Examples
Example 1: Create Widget with Flow
// 1. Create widget in builder
const widget = await widgetStorage.createWidget(
'button',
spaceId,
universeId,
userId,
{
name: 'Smart Submit Button',
propertyGroups: [/* ... */]
}
);
// 2. Attach Singularity flow
await flowAttachment.attachFlow(
'submit-validation-flow',
'widget',
widget.id,
{
trigger: { type: 'onClick' },
outputMapping: [
{ flowOutput: 'isValid', targetInput: 'disabled' }
]
}
);
// 3. Widget now triggers flow on click!
Example 2: Test Flow from Builder
// In widget-flow-designer component
async testFlow(bindingId: string) {
const binding = this.flowBindings().find(b => b.id === bindingId);
const result = await this.flowExecutor.executeFromWidget(
binding.widgetId,
binding.eventType,
{ widgetId: binding.widgetId }
);
console.log('Flow test result:', result);
}
Example 3: AI-Generated Widget with Flows
// Use AI to generate widget + flow
const result = await aiWidgetGenerator.generate({
description: 'A form submit button with validation',
includeLogic: true,
logicType: 'validation'
});
// Result includes:
// - Widget definition
// - Property groups
// - Singularity flow
// - Flow bindings
