Hi,I am working on a PHP app that needs me to fetch the user list from alfresco (something like what the Manage System Users page/dialog does within the web client). I was wondering if there was any way to do this via the PHP API. If not, is there any other way to do this. Also, are there any direct

Hi rmanocha:
There are a web service called Administration, what I did was to create a new class called Administration.php within the PHP API, this is the code:

<?php

   require_once 'WebServiceBase/WebServiceFactory.php';
   require_once 'BaseObject.php';

   class Administration extends BaseObject
   {
      private $_connectionUrl;
      private $_ticket;
      private $_administrationService;

      public function __construct($connectionUrl="http://localhost:8080/alfresco/api", $ticket)
      {
         $this->_connectionUrl = $connectionUrl;
         $this->_ticket = $ticket;
         $this->_administrationService = WebServiceFactory::getAdministrationService($this->_connectionUrl, $this->_ticket);
      }

      public function changePassword($username, $old_password, $new_password)
      {
         $this->_administrationService->changePassword(array (
         "userName" => $username,
         "oldPassword" => $old_password,
         "newPassword" => $new_password
         ));
      }

      public function getUser($username)
      {
         $result = $this->_administrationService->getUser(array("userName" => $username));
         return UserDetails::createUserDetails($result->result);
      }

      public function get_allUsers()
      {
         $result = $this->_administrationService->queryUsers();
         return UserQueryResult::createUserQueryResult($result->result);
      }
   }

   class UserQueryResult
   {
      public $query_session = null;
      public $users = array();

      public static function createUserQueryResult($web_service_result)
      {
         $user_query_result = new UserQueryresult();
         $user_query_result->query_session = $web_service_result->querySession;

         foreach($web_service_result->userDetails as $web_service_user_details)
         {
            $user_query_result->users[] = UserDetails::createUserDetails($web_service_user_details);
         }

         return $user_query_result;
      }
   }

   class UserDetails
   {
      public $name = null;
      public $user_name = null;
      public $first_name = null;
      public $last_name = null;
      public $email = null;
      public $home_folder = null;
      public $organization_id = null;
      public $password = null; // Only set if these are the details of a new user

      public static function createUserDetails($web_service_user_details)
      {
         $user_details = new UserDetails();
         $user_details->user_name = $web_service_user_details->userName;

         foreach($web_service_user_details->properties as $property)
         {
            if ($property->name == "{http://www.alfresco.org/model/content/1.0}name")
            {
               $user_details->name = $property->value;
            }
            else if ($property->name == "{http://www.alfresco.org/model/content/1.0}firstName")
            {
               $user_details->first_name = $property->value;
            }
            else if ($property->name == "{http://www.alfresco.org/model/content/1.0}lastName")
            {
               $user_details->last_name = $property->value;
            }
            else if ($property->name == "{http://www.alfresco.org/model/content/1.0}email")
            {
               $user_details->email = $property->value;
            }
            else if ($property->name == "{http://www.alfresco.org/model/content/1.0}organizationId")
            {
               $user_details->organization_id = $property->value;
            }
            else if ($property->name == "{http://www.alfresco.org/model/content/1.0}homeFolder")
            {
               $user_details->home_folder = $property->value;
            }
         }

         return $user_details;
      }
   }

?>

with the function get_allUsers() you cant get all users….

Hi Forum,

I think PHP API is dead and not maintained anymore.
I'm using the REST API, that's the way to leverage PHP skills.
