Organization tasks

Creating a user

In the following example a user is created. The code checks first if the user exists int he VDoc directory.

public void organization_createUser( IDirectoryModule directoryModule, IContext context, IOrganization organization ) throws DirectoryModuleException
{
        // verifying if a user exists 
        IUser user = directoryModule.getUserByLogin( "jbon" );
        if ( user == null )
        {
                // creating the user linked to an organization 
                user = directoryModule.createUser( context, "jbon", "pwd", organization );
                user.setFirstName( "Jean" );
                user.setLastName( "Bon" );
                user.setEmail( "jbon@charcuterie.com" );
        }
}

Creating a group

In the following example a group is created. The code uses the getGroup function to check if the group already exists before creating it.

public void organization_createGroup( IDirectoryModule directoryModule, IContext context, IOrganization organization ) throws DirectoryModuleException
{
        // verifying if the group exists 
        IGroup managers = directoryModule.getGroup( context, organization, "Managers" );
        if ( managers == null )
                // creating a group inside the organization 
                managers = directoryModule.createGroup( context, organization, "Managers" );
}

Adding a user or a group in a group

The following code shows the possibilities of association between users and groups. It shows also how to check the belonging of a user to a group or another group.

public void organization_addGroupAndMember( IDirectoryModule directoryModule, IContext context, IOrganization organization ) throws DirectoryModuleException
{
        // recovering a group 
        IGroup group = directoryModule.getGroup( context, organization, "Managers" );

        // recovering a user 
        IUser user = directoryModule.getUserByLogin( "jbon" );

        // checking the belonging of a user to a group 
        if ( !user.isMemberOf( group, false ) )
                // adding the user to the group's members 
                group.addMember( user );

        // recovering a group in the directory 
        IGroup nextGroup = directoryModule.getGroup( context, organization, "Managers" );

        // checking the belonging to a group or another group 
        if ( !nextGroup.isChildOf( group, false ) )
                // adding the user to the group's child 
                group.addChild( nextGroup );
}
