    • Support for tikiwiki editing from command line?

    Posted by nbriggs

    Hi -

    I'm trying to automate the process of importing all of the users from an LDAP into my tikiwiki. I know that tikiwikis can batch upload users from a csv file, and I know scripts exist to export LDAP to csv. But I'm wondering if there is support for batch uploading users _not_ from the web interface. Ultimately I would like to set up a nightly cron job that dumps all the users from the LDAP to the tikiwiki, and was hoping that I could also initiate the process from the command line. But I'm sure sure what sort of command line support there is for admins wanting to edit a tikiwiki.

    Thanks

    Hi There,

    We sync tikiwiki.org with doc.tw.o and mods.tw.o every 6 hours my dumping the users_users from tw.o and mysql loading it into doc and mods databases on a another server.

    For command line support, install the cgi php, so you can call php at shell.

    php tiki-index.php as an example.

    Probably the best way is to get it into a mysql format and import that way. But watch the md5 password hash
