README

This is an abstraction on top of the CERN e-groups web service.

Getting started

The official documentation can be found on the following URLs:

• Documentation: https://aisdocs.web.cern.ch/display/ED/6. Web Service
• WSDL: https://foundservices.cern.ch/ws/egroups/v1/EgroupsWebService/EgroupsWebService.wsdl
• Schema: https://foundservices.cern.ch/ws/egroups/v1/EgroupsWebService/EgroupsServicesSchema.xsd

Usage

The e-group provider is created with the user credentials.

$egroupProvider = EgroupProvider::createWithUserCredentials(
    $user         = getenv("USER"),
    $password     = getenv("PASSWORD"),
);

Every method returns a Response object. This object has the following methods:

• transactionId() - Returns the id of the transaction.
• warnings() - Returns an array of warnings. Empty by default.
• egroup() - Returns an Egroup object (when applicable). Null by default.

Any error thrown will be an instance of EgroupException. The error message is the message returned by the web service.

EgroupProvider::findEgroupByName()

This method accepts a string (the e-group name) as parameter.

$response = $egroupProvider->findEgroupByName("lhcb-glance-admins");

echo($response->egroup()->name());

// Output:
// lhcb-glance-admins

EgroupProvider::synchronizeEgroup()

The synchronizeEgroup method can be used to create or update an e-group. The method accepts an Egroup object as parameter.'

Creating an e-group:

$egroup = Egroup::create(
    $name = "foo-bar",
    $topic = "LHCb",
    $owner = Owner::create(851203),
    $members = [
        Person::create(382894),
        StaticEgroup::create("lhcb-static-glance-admins")
        DynamicEgroup::create("lhcb-dynamic-glance-admins")
    ],
    $adminEgroup = "lhcb-glance-admins",
    $description = "This was created as a test",
    $type = Type::staticEgroup(),
    $usage = Usage::securityMailing(),
    $privacy = Privacy::members(),
    $selfSubscription = SelfSubscription::members(),
    $emailProperties = EmailProperties::create(
        MailPostingRestrictions::create(
            $postingRestrictions = PostingRestrictions::ownerAdminsAndOthers(),
            $otherRecipientsAllowedToPost = [
                Person::create(840720)
            ],
        ),
        $senderAuthenticationEnabled = false,
        $whoReceivesDeliveryErrors = WhoReceivesDeliveryErrors::sender(),
        $maxMailSize = MaxMailSize::tenMb(),
        $archiveProperties = ArchiveProperties::active()
    );
    $egroupsWithPrivileges = [
        EgroupWithPrivileges::createWithAdminPrivilegeFromString("lhcb-fence-support"),
    ],
    $selfSubscriptionEgroups = [
        SelfSubscriptionEgroup::createWithApprovalNotNeededFromId(10215717),
    ]
);

$response = $egroupProvider->synchronizeEgroup($egroup);

echo($response->egroup()->name());

// Output:
// foo-bar

Updating an e-group:

$response = $egroupProvider->findEgroupByName("foo-bar");

$egroup = $response->egroup();

$egroup->updateMembers([
    Person::create(851203)
]);

$response = $egroupProvider->synchronizeEgroup($egroup);

echo(count($response->egroup()->members()));
echo($response->egroup()->members()[0]->personId());

// Output:
// 1
// 851203

EgroupProvider::updateEmailProperties()

The method accepts an Egroup object as parameter.'

$response = $egroupProvider->findEgroupByName("foo-bar");

$egroup = $response->egroup();

$egroup->emailProperties()->updateMaxMailSize(MaxMailSize::fiveMb());

$response = $egroupProvider->updateEmailProperties($egroup);

echo($response->egroup()->emailProperties()->maxMailSize()->toString());

// Output:
// 5

EgroupProvider::addEgroupMembers()

The method accepts a string (the e-group name), an array (this array can contain Person, StaticEgroup and DynamicEgroup objects) and the overwriteMembers (boolean) as parameters. If overwriteMembers is set to true, the members of the e-group will be overwritten with the members passed as parameter. If overwriteMembers is set to false, the members passed as parameter will be added to the e-group. It is false by default.

$members = [
    Person::create(382894),
];

$response = $egroupProvider->addEgroupMembers("foo-bar", $members, true);

echo(count($response->egroup()->members()));
echo($response->egroup()->members()[0]->personId());

// Output:
// 1
// 382894

EgroupProvider::removeEgroupMembers()

The method accepts a string (the e-group name), an array as parameters (this array can contain Person, StaticEgroup and DynamicEgroup objects).

$members = [
    Person::create(382894),
];

$response = $egroupProvider->removeEgroupMembers("foo-bar", $members);

echo(count($response->egroup()->members()));

// Output:
// 0

EgroupProvider::delete()

The method accepts a string (the e-group name) as parameter.

$response = $egroupProvider->delete("foo-bar");

echo($response->egroup()));

// Output:
// Null
