eZContentFunctions::createAndPublishObject not working

Monday 31 January 2011 12:26:28 pm

Hello Jitesh,
I tried your code in a module of mine and it's working. So, I don't know why you got this error. Maybe your module is not set correctly.
Also, you don't need the line "require 'autoload.php';" and you can try to regenerate autoload array.

You can do this with these commands:

$ cd /var/www/html/OSCAR_UAT/
$ php bin/php/ezpgenerateautoloads.php --extension

hope this help

Hello Jitesh,

sorry for my poor english but my suggestion was:

1. remove your "require autoload" instruction
2. then, regenerate autoload array
3. test your script

How do you launch your script? Is it by a module/view way? A cli script?
If you want to see how write a simple module and view, you can take a look to this article

Hello Jitesh,
you cannot launch a php script using eZ Publish API without eZ Publish context. If you make your own module and your own view, your script will run in the eZ Publish context. You can also use php in command line. If you want to use the command line, you need to initialize eZ Publish context.
Here is a script you can launch in command line:

#!/usr/bin/env php
<?php

require 'autoload.php';

$cli = eZCLI::instance();

$scriptSettings = array();
$scriptSettings['description'] = 'Create a simple article in a simple folder';
$scriptSettings['use-session'] = false;
$scriptSettings['use-modules'] = true;
$scriptSettings['use-extensions'] = true;

$script = eZScript::instance( $scriptSettings );
$script->startup();

$config = '';
$argumentConfig = '';
$optionHelp = false;
$arguments = false;
$useStandardOptions = true;

$options = $script->getOptions( $config, $argumentConfig, $optionHelp, $arguments, $useStandardOptions );
$script->initialize();

createASimpleArticleForJitesh();

$script->shutdown( 0 );

function createASimpleArticleForJitesh()
{
    $user = eZUser::fetchByName( 'admin' );

    if (!$user)
    {
        //if no user exists let's pull out the current user:
        $user = eZUser::currentUser();
    }

    $parent_node = eZContentObjectTreeNode::fetchByURLPath('my_folder');
    $params= array();
    $params['class_identifier'] = "article";
    $params['creator_id'] = eZUser::currentUser()->ContentObjectID;
    $params['parent_node_id'] = $parent_node->NodeID;
    $params['section_id'] = $parent_node->ContentObject->SectionID;

    $attributesData = array() ;
    $attributesData['name'] = 'Title of Article' ;
    $attributesData['short_description'] = 'This is an amazing article.' ;
    $params['attributes'] = $attributesData;

    $contentObject = eZContentFunctions::createAndPublishObject($params);
    eZContentCacheManager::clearObjectViewCache( $parent_node->ContentObjectID, true );
}

?>

You must save it as /var/www/html/OSCAR_UAT/script.php

to execute it, open a terminal and type these commands:

$ cd /var/www/html/OSCAR_UAT
 $ php script.php

Hi,

I want to create object in php and here is my code.

#!/usr/bin/env php
<?php

require 'autoload.php';

$cli = eZCLI::instance();

$scriptSettings = array();
$scriptSettings['description'] = 'Create a simple article in a simple folder';
$scriptSettings['use-session'] = false;
$scriptSettings['use-modules'] = true;
$scriptSettings['use-extensions'] = true;

$script = eZScript::instance( $scriptSettings );
$script->startup();

$config = '';
$argumentConfig = '';
$optionHelp = false;
$arguments = false;
$useStandardOptions = true;

$options = $script->getOptions( $config, $argumentConfig, $optionHelp, $arguments, $useStandardOptions );
$script->initialize();

createASimpleArticleForJitesh();

$script->shutdown( 0 );

function createASimpleArticleForJitesh()
{
$user = eZUser::fetchByName( 'jshah' );

if (!$user)
{
//if no user exists let's pull out the current user:
$user = eZUser::currentUser();
}

$parent_node = eZContentObjectTreeNode::fetchByURLPath('master_content/apa');
$params= array();
$params['class_identifier'] = "article";
$params['creator_id'] = eZUser::currentUser()->ContentObjectID;
$params['parent_node_id'] = $parent_node->NodeID;
$params['section_id'] = $parent_node->ContentObject->SectionID;

$attributesData = array() ;
$attributesData['name'] = 'Title of Article' ;
$attributesData['short_description'] = 'This is an amazing article.' ;
$params['attributes'] = $attributesData;


$contentObject = eZContentFunctions::createAndPublishObject($params);
eZContentCacheManager::clearObjectViewCache( $parent_node->ContentObjectID, true );
}

?>

Object is insrted in system successfully,but node is not created for the object, that's why there is no entry for the object in ezcontentobject_tree table.Any one have idea? Please help me.
