Re: [xwiki-users] API/Scripting : create user and attach some files to its profile
You must tell us what is this file? A custom file per user? where did this file come from? Do you want this file attached to profile user? Etc. Your file is in your ldap ilike users photo:? #-# [Since 8.1M2, XWikiLDAPAuthServiceImpl] #-# On every login update photo from LDAP to XWiki avatar otherwise photo will not be updated. #-# - 0: never #-# - 1: at each authentication #-# The default is 0 # xwiki.authentication.ldap.update_photo=0 Anyway you can add custom velocity code here: /bin/edit/XWiki/XWikiUserProfileSheet?editor=wiki (I don't know it it is a clean way, it depend of your use case desired) -------------------------------------------- En date de : Mar 29.11.16, [email protected] <[email protected]> a écrit : Objet: Re: [xwiki-users] API/Scripting : create user and attach some files to its profile À: "XWiki Users" <[email protected]> Date: Mardi 29 novembre 2016, 9h00 Hi Pascal, Thanks for the tip :) It answers to the "how to add a field" part of my question.

Hello,
I added some others attributes (I don't know if you can do the same with file) Add some attributes here: /bin/edit/XWiki/XWikiUsers?editor=class
e.g. myaddress

Add this field "myaddress" on the sheet: /bin/view/XWiki/AdminUserProfileSheet and finally add it in xwiki.cfg: #-# retrieve the following fields from LDAP and store them in the XWiki user object (xwiki-attribute=ldap-attribute)
xwiki.authentication.ldap.fields_mapping=last_name=sn,first_name=givenName,email=xxxxx....cut....,myaddress=street

xwiki.authentication.ldap.update_user=1
(eventually add
a XWiki.TranslationDocumentClass to translate myaddress attribute)

Objet: [xwiki-users] API/Scripting : create user and attach some files to its profile À: "XWiki Users" <[email protected]> Date: Vendredi 25 novembre 2016, 12h37 Hi, I'm working on a registration system around xwiki. The basic workflow is the user is created in a LDAP directory at registration time. Then the user can login to xwiki. It's only upon the first successful login to xwiki that the user's xwiki profile is created in xwiki database. Now here is my point : how could I prepare the user profile *before* he gets connected ? For example I would be able to attach some files to XWiki.<username> and why not some others attributes.
Is anyone already achieved this ?

Hi Pascal, It is a per-user PDF file generated on the fly by an external PHP routine. Then I should find a way to attach it to the user profile BEFORE that user profile is created (at auth time). I can use PHP to access XWIKI's api and attach the file to the user profile but it should exists first. Le 29/11/2016 à 15:12, Pascal BASTIEN a écrit :

Anyway you can add custom velocity code here: /bin/edit/XWiki/XWikiUserProfileSheet?editor=wiki (I don't know it it is a clean way, it depend of your use case desired)

That sounds a lot like...

When you are turning my request into a non-sense like this, I feel a little scorned. Still this is a real question with a real usecase scenario. Would you have something valuable to bring ? And you cut the remaining part of my post. Cheers
1) I am not cutting any post. I use Nabble. http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Re-API-Scripting-create-user-and-attach-so... 2) I think my example shows perfectly what you want to accomplish. You want to attach an PDF to something which does not yet exist. Don't be scorned, I am just putting things in perspective. Unless there's an API which allows you to attach items to pages during the creation of the page. Otherwise the procedure will have to be (1) check if a user profile exists, if "yes" then attach file, if "no" then first create the user profile and then attach the file. -- View this message in context: http://xwiki.475771.n2.nabble.com/Re-API-Scripting-create-user-and-attach-so...

Hi, Did not follow the discussion in depth, but maybe you are interested in adding an EventListener on either DocumentCreatingEvent [1] (before) or DocumentCreatedEvent [2] (after). Other, more specialized, events exist as well, such as XObjectAdded/Updated/DeletedEvent [7][8][9] that allows you to catch a user profile page that was just created (example usage [6]). This way you`re avoiding to do extra work in checking the type of the created page, like you would have to do with DocumentCreatedEvent. The event listener [3] can be built and added either as a java component [4], a wiki component [5] or with a custom groovy script that does things manually. Hope this helps, Eduard ---------- [1] https://github.com/xwiki/xwiki-platform/blob/master/xwiki-platform-core/xwik...
