Hi Sébastien,

Include kernel/classes/ezcontentclass.php

a little bit off topic but maybe this one can be useful for you too: http://pubsvn.ez.no/community/trunk/extension/cddb. I'll upload the content classes I use this weekend.

Hi Sébastien

It's better to write a real eZ command line script by using the eZScript class, so your eZ environment gets initialized properly. Take a look at the scripts in bin/php as an example. There are also some related code snippets on eZpedia: http://ezpedia.org/wiki/en/content/search?SearchText=script

Hello!
I try the ezcvsimport function with a simple class with only eztextline datatype, now I would like to try with date or date/time datatype, what is the right syntax in cvs file for this datatype?

When trying to import data into a custom class, which contains an ezuser type, i get the following error:

# php bin/php/ezcsvimport.php -d -v --creator=14 --class=ow_persoon 203 teztuser.csv
Going to import objects of class ow_persoon under  node 203 from file teztuser.csv

Fatal error: Call to a member function on a non-object in /.../kernel/classes/datatypes/ezuser/ezusertype.php on line 393

With the modification from Rodrigo Pinheiro i got the same result, maybe because this only works for the standard 'user' class. With a mod of his mod, i can now import ezusers:

At line ' switch ( $datatypeString = $attribute->attribute( 'data_type_string' ) ) { '
Add the following case:

		case 'ezuser':
		// create array of userdata
		$csvUserData = explode( '|', $dataString );
	   	$userAccountObject = eZUser::fetch($attribute->ContentObjectID);
		
		// only first 2 items are used
		$username = $csvUserData[0];
               	$email = $csvUserData[1];
               	
               	// password is created by ez publish, not from csv
               	$password = eZUser::createPassword(6, 0);
               	$confirmPassword = $password;
               	$password_hash = md5( "$username\n$password" );
               	$userAccountObject->setInformation($contentObject->attribute('id' ), $username, $email, $password, $confirmPassword);
               	$userAccountObject->store();
               	// echo user and created password 
               	echo "user: " . $username . " password: " . $password;
               	break;

When I try to import string that contain a special char such as "è à ì ò" frequent in italian's words, the import script truncate the string before the special char.

I have modified the line 163 from:

$attribute->fromString( $dataString );

to:

$attribute->fromString( utf8_encode($dataString) );

now work fine and import also string with special chars.

Thanks.
