XML-RPC Objects And Methods - To add user account

shodanto 2007-12-17 20:28:10 UTC #1

Hello,

i’m a XML-RPC newbee.
Could someone tell me please which object and methods i can use with remote RPC. Or where/how i can find them.
At this moment i’m trying to add a new user/account by XMLRPC but i can find the
propper method

I habe already tried:

admin.boaccounts.add_user
phpgwapi.accounts.list_methods
accounts.list_methods

and several others. I always get a ‘Access denied’ or some parse error.
But i am using an Admin account to connect.
I already tried calendar.bocalendar.search which works fine.

Thanks a lot

I am pretty sure we disabled account administration via xml-rpc a long
time ago because its security had not been at least reviewed.

You should be able to do system.list_methods to see what is available
from the api. Not much there at this point. For enabled apps, at least
when this was written, typically addressbook.boaddressbook.list_methods
was then available.

I think class.boaccounts.inc.php is the file need to modify.
I have added a list_methods function to the class:

function list_methods($_type=‘xmlrpc’)
{
switch(is_array($_type) ? ($_type[‘type’] ? $_type[‘type’] : $_type[0]) : $_type)
{
case ‘xmlrpc’:
$xml_functions = array(
‘list_methods’ => array(
‘function’ => ‘list_methods’,
‘signature’ => array(array(xmlrpcStruct,xmlrpcString)),
‘docstring’ => ‘Read this list of methods.’
),
‘read’ => array(
‘function’ => ‘add_user’,
‘signature’ => array(array(xmlrpcStruct,xmlrpcStruct)),
‘docstring’ => ‘Add a user.’
));
return $xml_functions;
}
return array();
}

And now admin.boaccounts.list_methods works fine.
But no other function works.
What else do i have to add to make add_user and add group work??

As miles wrote before, they are not there on purpose

Is the project your are developing in php or an other language?

I’m working at the moment on a remote administration thing in trunk,
which is already working via it’s command line interface. Maybe that
solves your problem too.

I’m also writing in PHP.
Some moment ago have already seen the admin-cli interface and already tried it successfuly.
Maybe you could tell me in which encoding the data should be passed. i had some problems with the password. It’s ISO-8859-1 am i right?

Bin übrigens aus Deutschland, wie stehts da mit den Ümlauten ÖÄÜßäöü über das CLI?

if admin-cli can detect the charset of your console enviroment, it tries
to use it. Most easy it to use the same charset. On a Linux console this
is by default utf-8, which is also the default for all eGW
installations, from the next version on.

Bin übrigens aus Deutschland, wie stehts da mit den Ümlauten ÖÄÜßäöü über
das CLI?

Auf den englischen Listen, ist es üblich englisch miteinander zu reden,
damit alle mitlesen können.
