Jose Mourinho	Monday 19 November 2007 8:04:57 am Is it possible to be created object and to assign nodes to them by using php scripts... I want to insert information form a mysql database to objects( after that to nodes) in Exponential system. I think that the direct sql commands to the Exponential database will not be a good idea so I want to use some module or mechanism of Exponential to insert the info to the Exponential database. I want to use php scripts to create ez object and assign node to it. I think I should use some parts of content module. Could you give me some information and opinions. 10x all

Oliver Frommel	Monday 19 November 2007 10:46:22 am take a look at /bin/php/ezcsvimport.php of the eZ installation. You can find some patterns on how to create content objects via PHP there. You might also want to take a look at the forum thread http://ez.no/developer/forum/developer/cli_script_slow where you can finde a code sample and some hints on better practices. Best Oliver
Jose Mourinho	Sunday 25 November 2007 2:08:39 am To achieve publishing articles, is it possible to send INSERT queries direct to mysql? And if it is possible where can i found these queries? 10x all
Heath	Sunday 25 November 2007 3:06:31 am <i>@Jose</i> Again. You will want to take further time to study and learn from the existing Exponential PHP API Documentation and available extensions instead of seeking a sql based solution. <i>http://ezpedia.org/wiki/en/ez/creating_new_content_objects_with_php http://pubsvn.ez.no/doxygen/trunk/html/classeZContentObjectTreeNode.html http://ezpedia.org/wiki/en/ez/solution_using_ez_publish_doxygen_api_documentation</i> Once you understand the eZ content object / content tree abstraction matches code (php classes) up to database independent solutions. * Take the time, write test code, learn to create using existing extensions as examples of content objects within Exponential. Use the API.

Daniel Hoppe	Sunday 25 November 2007 4:54:19 am In the beginning I also thought: direct SQL INSERTs are a maybe a good way for fast content migration. So I activated the SQL debug output within the admin to understand how to created an article. Whats this? 68 x eZMySQLDB::query for creating an article 67 x eZMySQLDB::query for saving an article (ok, most of them are SELECTs ...) ...and I understand the reason for the API. Daniel
Jose Mourinho	Sunday 25 November 2007 9:33:00 am Exponential is new for me and i have to spend more time with documentation. But i found the log of queries to mysql - the general query log http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/query-log.html It might be possible to saw the the sql statements for publishing of articles.
Daniel Hoppe	Sunday 25 November 2007 2:18:45 pm possible != useful Maybe you will get later difficulties with the data-integrity. This type of problems costs you really much time. Daniel
