Hi,
Is there a simple way to export data ?
I need to create a text file with all the items of a specific classe and retrieve all attributes line by line. Possible ? Regards. Laurent.

I've just installed a fantastic extension:
http://ez.no/community/contribs/import_export/csv_extract_pubsvn It was a doddle to install & I think can be easily adapted to suit your requirements. Best Steve

Hi and thanks for response, I'm trying to install the extension I'm not very familiar with extensions. I tryed to place the files in the right place but not sure it's the right way What I've done : extension/extract/modules/extract
- module.php
- user.php extension/extract/packages - empty folder (what is use for ?) extension/extract/settings - module.ini.append settings/override/site.ini.append.php
[ExtensionSettings]
ActiveAccessExtensions[]=extract
ModuleList[]
ModuleList[]=extract
Part[ezextractnavigationpart]=Extract
[TopAdminMenu]
Tabs[]=extract
[Topmenu_extract]
NavigationPartIdentifier=ezextractnavigationpart
Name=Extract
Tooltip=Extract Users to csv
URL[]
URL[default]=extract/user
Enabled[]
Enabled[default]=true
Enabled[browse]=false
Enabled[edit]=false
Shown[]
Shown[default]=true
Shown[edit]=true
Shown[navigation]=true
Shown[browse]=false
settings/override/ - browse.ini.append.php settings/override/ - design.ini.append.php settings/override/ - export.ini.append.php (write [ExportSettings] instead of [ExportSettngs] ) standard/templates/extract
- browse_node.tpl
- user.tpl -----end I think I forgot something or maybe there is a fine tune to perform cause by clicking on the tab "Extract" ezP can't findthe module... Laurent

As Björn created some extension for this, use it :) I think, you should be able to do this with pure templating, too, but this will be some work.

Hi marco, I'm almost trying to use it !
What you mean by "use it" ?
Isn't it the right way to install it ? Laurent

Hi Laurent I think you're trying to make it too complicated! Just unpack the files & copy to your extensions dir. Add the lines:
[ExtensionSettings]
ActiveExtensions[]=extract
[ModuleSettings]
ExtensionRepositories[]=extract ..to your settings/override/site.ini.append, clear the caches & bingo!!

As you said : BINGO ! I just add in override/menu.ini.append.php
[TopAdminMenu]
Tabs[]
Tabs[]=extract because there was no "Extract" tab. Nice job (not mine ;) Many thanks to Björn and both of you ! Laurent.

I didn't need the menu mods? Glad it's running OK :) Do you know anything about the store() function? See my post...

I also installed the extension. But my date-fields are shown as "Object" in the CSV-file. Any tips on how to turn it into a proper date?

Pål. Assume you'll need to modify the templates but maybe the developer would be interested in looking at this one? Let me know how you get on...

Pål, I have also the same result for specific datatypes but most of them are supported. Let us know if you find the way to extend to all datatypes. Laurent

Yes, The function
function parseContentToText( &$datatype )
in the file modules/extract/user.php needs to be extended for some of the datatypes (maybe also custom datatypes) -paul

I added some code to treat the 'ezdate' datatype, under <i>function parseContentToText( &$datatype )</i>:
case 'ezdate':
print "parseContentToText 5: Case ezdate.<br>";
$content = $datatype->title();
break;
I suppose this should work for most datatypes (except those that save data as xml), as the function <i>title()</i> formats the data that should be saved in the data_text-field. I have only tested it for ezdate, though.

Pål Can you post your mod in context please? I managed to crash it so must have got it wrong :(
case 'ezdate':
print "parseContentToText 5: Case ezdate.<br>";
$content = $datatype->title();
break;

In my version of extract/modules/extract/user.php, the function parseContentToText now looks like this:
function parseContentToText( &$datatype )
{
if ( is_object( $datatype ) )
{
$isA = $datatype->isA();
switch ( $isA )
{
case 'ezselection':
$content = $datatype->content();
if ( is_array( $content ) and count($content) == 1 )
{
$content = $datatype->metaData();
}
else
{
$content = $datatype->isA();
}
break;
case 'ezdate':
$content = $datatype->title();
break;
default:
$content = $datatype->content();
break;
}
}
else
{
$content = $datatype;
}
return $content;
}
