Automation chain - how to use parameters

laurent13_ — Thu, 04 Oct 2012 14:53:30 GMT

I have a problem with an automation chain that I want to create.

This automation chain is created in order to find documents in section by using specifcs right access of a login passed in parameters.

It must do following steps :

get 2 parameters : 1 for login name, 1 for a section name
make connection with login name thanks to operation LoginAs
execute a query by using section name
return list of documents

This automation chain will be called by a php automation client.

My problems is :

How can I use parameters in an automation chain ?

Thank you in advance

Hi, I m using the Context variable for such an operation chain :

It s called this way from PHP :

$client = new NuxeoPhpAutomationClient(NUXEO_AUTOMATION_URL);
$session = $client->getSession(NUXEO_AUTOMATION_USER, NUXEO_AUTOMATION_PASSWD);
$session->newRequest("Chain.remove_all_docs")->set('params', 'doc_id', $id)->sendRequest();
