Snippet: PHP Snippet Add Location to Object / Add Usergroup to User

Compatibility

This example works with eZ Publish 4.x

About

This function allows adding a location to an extisting object even adds a usergroup to an existing user. The Code was taken and modified from kernel/content/action.php where it says " if ( $module->isCurrentAction( 'AddAssignment' ) )"

Example

/**
  * Adds User to the chosen Usergroup
  * objectID=UserobjectID
  * newNodeID=usergroupNodeID
  * @param integer $objectID
  * @param unknown_type $newNodeID
  */
 function addLocation($objectID,$newNodeID)
 {
  //$selectedNodeIDArray = eZContentBrowse::result( 'AddNodeAssignment' );
  eZDebug::writeDebug("LocationAdd: objectID".$objectID."\nnewNodeID: ".$newNodeID);
   $object = eZContentObject::fetch( $objectID );
   $nodeID = $object->attribute("main_node_id");
   //$version = $object->currentVersion();
  $ini = eZINI::instance();
  $userClassID = $ini->variable( "UserSettings", "UserClassID" );
  // $node = eZContentObjectTreeNode::fetch( $nodeID );
  $selectedNodeIDArray = array($newNodeID);
        $node = eZContentObjectTreeNode::fetch( $selectedNodeIDArray[0] );
