<h1>Module HowTo - Advanced upload options<br>
 | 
						|
</h1>
 | 
						|
<div style="text-align: left;"><br>
 | 
						|
The <span style="font-style: italic;">ieee802Device</span> module only
 | 
						|
needs the basic upload functions for its functionality.<br>
 | 
						|
However there are more possibilities for the modules to control the
 | 
						|
file upload.<br>
 | 
						|
</div>
 | 
						|
<div style="text-align: left;"><br>
 | 
						|
<h2>1. Module order<br>
 | 
						|
</h2>
 | 
						|
Your module might depend on the input values of another module. In this
 | 
						|
case you probably want that your module is called as the second one.<br>
 | 
						|
<br>
 | 
						|
You can define dependencies to other modules with the function <span
 | 
						|
 style="font-weight: bold;">get_uploadPreDepends()</span> or <span
 | 
						|
 style="font-weight: bold;">meta['upload_preDepends']</span>.<br>
 | 
						|
<br>
 | 
						|
<span style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;">Example:</span><br
 | 
						|
 style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;">
 | 
						|
<br>
 | 
						|
The <span style="font-style: italic;">sambaGroupMapping</span> module
 | 
						|
needs the group name to set the default <span
 | 
						|
 style="font-style: italic;">displayName</span>. Therefore it depends
 | 
						|
on the <span style="font-style: italic;">posixGroup</span> module<br>
 | 
						|
<br>
 | 
						|
<table style="width: 100%; text-align: left;" class="mod-code"
 | 
						|
 border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2">
 | 
						|
  <tbody>
 | 
						|
    <tr>
 | 
						|
      <td style="vertical-align: top;">    /**<br>
 | 
						|
    * Returns meta data that is interpreted by parent
 | 
						|
class<br>
 | 
						|
    *<br>
 | 
						|
    * @return array array with meta data<br>
 | 
						|
    */<br>
 | 
						|
   <span style="font-weight: bold;"> function</span>
 | 
						|
get_metaData() {<br>
 | 
						|
        $return = array();<br>
 | 
						|
        // upload dependencies<br>
 | 
						|
        $return[<span
 | 
						|
 style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">'upload_preDepends'</span>] =
 | 
						|
array('posixGroup');<br>
 | 
						|
        [...]<br>
 | 
						|
      </td>
 | 
						|
    </tr>
 | 
						|
  </tbody>
 |

<h2>2. Upload post actions<br>
 | 
						|
</h2>
 | 
						|
If your module does not only create an account but relates the account
 | 
						|
with other existing LDAP entries you can do these modifications after
 | 
						|
the account was created.<br>
 | 
						|
This is useful for adding users to groups or setting quotas.<br>
 | 
						|
<br>
 | 
						|
You have to implement the function <span style="font-weight: bold;">doUploadPostActions()</span>
 | 
						|
in your module. Since post actions are very special there is no <span
 | 
						|
 style="font-style: italic;">meta data</span> for this.<br>
 | 
						|
<br>
 | 
						|
<span style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;">Example:</span><br
 | 
						|
 style="font-weight: bold; text-decoration: underline;">
 | 
						|
<br>
 | 
						|
The <span style="font-style: italic;">posixAccount</span> module
 | 
						|
offers to put the user account in additional groups. This is done in
 | 
						|
the post actions.<br>
 | 
						|
<br>
 | 
						|
<table style="width: 100%; text-align: left;" class="mod-code"
 | 
						|
 border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="2">
 | 
						|
  <tbody>
 | 
						|
    <tr>
 | 
						|
      <td style="vertical-align: top;">    /**<br>
 | 
						|
    * This function executes one post upload action.<br>
 | 
						|
    *<br>
 | 
						|
    * @param array $data array containing one account in
 | 
						|
each element<br>
 | 
						|
    * @param array $ids array(<column_name> =>
 | 
						|
<column number>)<br>
 | 
						|
    * @param array $failed list of accounts which were
 | 
						|
not created successfully<br>
 | 
						|
    * @param array $temp variable to store temporary
 | 
						|
data between two post actions<br>
 | 
						|
    * @return array current status<br>
 | 
						|
    * <br> array (<br>
 | 
						|
    * <br>  'status' => 'finished' |
 | 
						|
'inProgress'<br>
 | 
						|
    * <br>  'progress' => 0..100<br>
 | 
						|
    * <br>  'errors' => array (<array
 | 
						|
of parameters for StatusMessage>)<br>
 | 
						|
    * <br> )<br>
 | 
						|
    */<br>
 | 
						|
    <span style="font-weight: bold;">function</span> <span
 | 
						|
 style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">doUploadPostActions</span>($data, $ids,
 | 
						|
$failed, &$temp) {<br>
 | 
						|
         [...]<br>
 | 
						|
    }<br>
 | 
						|
      </td>
 | 
						|
    </tr>
 | 
						|
  </tbody>
 | 
						|
</table>
 | 
						|
<br>
 | 
						|
Please make sure that the actions in one call of <span
 | 
						|
 style="font-weight: bold;">doUploadPostActions()</span> are not very
 | 
						|
time consuming (only one LDAP operation). Your function will be called
 | 
						|
repeatedly until you give back the status "finished".<br>
 | 
						|
This allows LAM to avoid running longer than the maximum execution time
 | 
						|
by sending meta refreshes to the browser.<br>
