Add aggressive debugging logs to trace hook execution

- Add console.log statements that will ALWAYS appear if hooks are called
- Trace WorkflowExecutor creation and method availability
- Log every step of hook execution pipeline
- This will help identify exactly where the execution is failing

# Changelog
All notable changes to the PayloadCMS Automation Plugin will be documented in this file.
The format is based on [Keep a Changelog](https://keepachangelog.com/en/1.0.0/),

# 🚨 CRITICAL: Configuration Field Name Issue Found
## ❌ The Root Problem
Your plugin configuration is using the **wrong field name**!
### What You're Probably Using (WRONG):
```javascript
automationPlugin({
collections: ['orders', 'users', 'products'], // ❌ Wrong field name
steps: [...],
})
```
### What You MUST Use (CORRECT):
```javascript
automationPlugin({
collectionTriggers: { // ✅ Correct field name
'orders': true,
'users': true,
'products': true
},
steps: [...],
})
```
## 🔧 Immediate Fix Required
**Update your `payload.config.ts` file:**
```typescript
import { automationPlugin } from '@xtr-dev/payload-automation'
export default buildConfig({
// ... your other config
plugins: [
automationPlugin({
collectionTriggers: { // ← CHANGE THIS FIELD NAME
orders: true, // Enable all hooks (create, read, update, delete)
users: true,
products: true
},
steps: [
// ... your step configurations
]
})
]
})
```
## 🎯 Why This Fixes Everything
1. **Hook Registration**: The plugin only registers hooks for collections listed in `collectionTriggers`
2. **No Hooks = No Execution**: If `collectionTriggers` is empty/missing, no hooks get registered
3. **Silent Failure**: The plugin logs "No collection triggers configured" and returns early
## 🔍 Advanced Configuration Options
You can also be more specific about which operations trigger workflows:
```javascript
automationPlugin({
collectionTriggers: {
orders: {
update: true, // Only trigger on updates
create: true // Only trigger on creates
// read and delete are false by default
},
users: true // Enable all operations
},
// ...
})
```
## ✅ Expected Results After Fix
Once you update your configuration and restart:
1. **Plugin logs will show**:
```
Starting collection hook registration
Collection hooks registered successfully - collectionSlug: "orders"
```
2. **Hook counts will be > 0**:
```javascript
payload.collections.orders.config.hooks.afterChange.length
// Should return a number > 0
```
3. **Workflow execution will work**:
- "AUTOMATION PLUGIN: Collection hook triggered" messages
- Workflow runs created in database
- Jobs processing successfully
## 🆘 If Still Not Working
If you fix the configuration and it still doesn't work:
1. **Check your exact collection slugs**:
```javascript
console.log('Available collections:', Object.keys(payload.collections))
```
2. **Verify case sensitivity**: Collection slugs are case-sensitive
- Use exactly what appears in `Object.keys(payload.collections)`
3. **Restart completely**:
- Stop dev server
- Clear any caches
- Restart with new configuration
---
**This configuration field name issue explains why no hooks were being registered, despite the plugin loading successfully. The v0.0.16 bug fix was valid, but this configuration issue was preventing hooks from being registered in the first place.**

# 🚨 Critical Update: PayloadCMS Automation Plugin v0.0.16
## ⚡ Immediate Action Required
A **critical bug** has been identified and fixed in v0.0.15 that prevented workflows from executing in development environments. **Please update immediately** to resolve workflow execution issues.
## 🔧 Quick Update Steps
### 1. Update the Package
```bash
npm update @xtr-dev/payload-automation
# OR
yarn upgrade @xtr-dev/payload-automation
# OR
pnpm update @xtr-dev/payload-automation
```
### 2. Verify Version
Check that you're now on v0.0.16:
```bash
npm list @xtr-dev/payload-automation
```
### 3. Restart Your Development Server
```bash
# Stop your current dev server (Ctrl+C)
# Then restart
npm run dev
# OR
yarn dev
# OR
pnpm dev
```
### 4. Test Your Workflows
Your workflows should now execute properly! Look for these log messages:
```
[payload-automation] Plugin initialized successfully - all hooks registered
AUTOMATION PLUGIN: Collection hook triggered
executeTriggeredWorkflows called
Found workflows to check
```
## 🐛 What Was Fixed
### Critical Bug: Hook Registration Failure
- **Problem**: The `hooksInitialized` flag prevented proper hook registration in development mode
- **Symptom**: Workflows would not execute even when correctly configured
- **Fix**: Removed the problematic flag, ensuring hooks register on every initialization
### Enhanced Debugging
- **Added**: Comprehensive logging with "AUTOMATION PLUGIN:" prefix
- **Added**: Try/catch blocks to prevent silent failures
- **Added**: Better error messages and stack traces
## 🔍 Troubleshooting
### If workflows still don't execute after updating:
1. **Check your workflow configuration** (should now use v0.0.15+ schema):
```javascript
// ✅ Correct v0.0.15+ schema
{
triggers: [{
type: 'collection-trigger',
collectionSlug: 'orders',
operation: 'update',
condition: '$.trigger.doc.status == "Paid"' // JSONPath format
}],
steps: [{
step: 'uppercaseText', // 'step' not 'type'
name: 'Process Order',
input: { // 'input' not 'inputs'
inputText: '$.trigger.doc.orderName has been paid!'
}
}]
}
```
2. **Verify plugin configuration** includes your collections:
```javascript
automationPlugin({
collections: ['orders', 'users', 'products'], // Must include target collections
// ... other config
})
```
3. **Check the logs** for "AUTOMATION PLUGIN:" messages during hook execution
4. **Ensure workflow status**: If using versioning, make sure workflows are "Published" not "Draft"
## 📋 Schema Changes Recap (from v0.0.14 → v0.0.15+)
If you haven't updated your workflows since v0.0.14, you'll also need to update the schema:
### Triggers
```javascript
// ❌ OLD v0.0.14
conditions: [
{ field: 'status', operator: 'equals', value: 'Paid' }
]
// ✅ NEW v0.0.15+
condition: '$.trigger.doc.status == "Paid"'
```
### Steps
```javascript
// ❌ OLD v0.0.14
{
type: 'uppercaseText',
inputs: { inputText: 'Hello' }
}
// ✅ NEW v0.0.15+
{
step: 'uppercaseText',
input: { inputText: 'Hello' }
}
```
## 🆘 Support
If you're still experiencing issues after updating to v0.0.16:
1. **Check console logs** for "AUTOMATION PLUGIN:" messages
2. **Verify your workflow schema** matches v0.0.15+ format
3. **Confirm plugin configuration** includes target collections
4. **File an issue** at https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues with:
- PayloadCMS version
- Complete console logs during workflow execution
- Your workflow configuration (sanitized)
## ✅ Success Indicators
After updating, you should see:
- ✅ Workflow runs created in `workflow-runs` collection
- ✅ "AUTOMATION PLUGIN:" log messages during hook execution
- ✅ Jobs appearing in `payload-jobs` collection
- ✅ Workflow steps executing successfully
---
**This is a critical bug fix release - no breaking changes, just fixes the core functionality that wasn't working in v0.0.15.**

console.log('Workflow runs after update:', runs.docs.length)

console.log(`
📋 STEP 4: Most likely root causes
1. Plugin Configuration Issue:
- 'orders' not included in collections array
- Plugin disabled or not properly applied
2. Collection Name Mismatch:
- Your collection might be named differently (e.g., 'order' vs 'orders')
- Case sensitivity issue
3. Hook Registration Timing:
- Plugin hooks registered before collection is fully initialized
- Race condition in PayloadCMS startup
4. Development Environment Issue:
- Hot reloading interfering with hook registration
- Multiple PayloadCMS instances
5. Database/Collection Issue:
- Collection doesn't exist in database
- Collection configuration mismatch

🆘 QUICK DEBUG COMMANDS
Run these in your browser console or Node.js environment:
// Check available collections
Object.keys(payload.collections)
// Check specific collection hooks
payload.collections.orders?.config?.hooks?.afterChange?.length
// Check plugin configuration (if accessible)
// This depends on how your config is structured
