RSS and the keywords attribute

Hi Børge,

I'm not sure I can give you a out-of-the-box solution, but I have a clue that you can work with. I experienced problem with importing data to the ezkeyword datatype but not from the default RSS import script in eZ.

When I look into the rssimport.php in you will see this code to write the value:

function setObjectAttributeValue( &$objectAttribute, $value )
{
    if ( $value === false )
    {
        return;
    }

    $dataType = $objectAttribute->attribute( 'data_type_string' );
    if ( $dataType == 'ezxmltext' )
    {
        setEZXMLAttribute( $objectAttribute, $value );
    }
    elseif ( $dataType == 'ezurl' )
    {
        $objectAttribute->setContent( $value );
    }
    else
    {
        $objectAttribute->setAttribute( 'data_text', $value );
    }

    $objectAttribute->store();
}

This shows that ezkeywords just will be tried inserted with the commaseparated string in setAttribute.

What you need to do in order to store a eZkeyword is to initialize a keyword object, my import code looks like this:

        $key = new eZKeyword();
        $key->initializeKeyword( $value );
        $keyword = $myContentObjectAttributes['keyword_trigger'];
        $keyword->setContent( $key );
        $keyword->store();

What I suggest is that you try to edit your rssimport.php to something like this:

function setObjectAttributeValue( &$objectAttribute, $value )
{
    if ( $value === false )
    {
        return;
    }

    $dataType = $objectAttribute->attribute( 'data_type_string' );
    if ( $dataType == 'ezxmltext' )
    {
        setEZXMLAttribute( $objectAttribute, $value );
    }
    elseif ( $dataType == 'ezurl' )
    {
        $objectAttribute->setContent( $value );
    }
    elseif ( $dataType == 'ezkeyword' )
    {
        $key = new eZKeyword();
        $key->initializeKeyword( $value );
        $objectAttribute->setContent( $key );
    }
    else
    {
        $objectAttribute->setAttribute( 'data_text', $value );
    }

    $objectAttribute->store();
}

I don't know if this will works out, but hopefully you got a idea about where the problem is located.

Good luck Børge :)
