Loughborough Online Reading List System
Members4Usergroup
NAME
Members4Usergroup - Find the users that are members of a given
usergroup.
DESCRIPTION
The Members4Usergroup LUMP API script returns a list of users that are
members of a given usergroup.
PARAMETERS
Standard
*username* - Name of user running this CGI script. Required unless web
server authentication is in use (when it is, the web server
authenticated user is used instead).
*password* - Password for the user. This is only required if the web
server is not handling the user authentication and if no security hash
parameter is being given.
*security_hash* - An opaque value used to authenticate the user without
requiring the password to be sent. This value is generated by a previous
execution of a LUMP API script and may well be time limited. It is only
required if no password or webserver authentication is done.
*act_as* - Users in the SysAdmins group can elect to act on the behalf
of other users once they are themselves authenticated. If this parameter
is present it should contain the username of the user that should be
switched to if this option is available and the real user has been
authenticated successfully. Optional.
*session_id* - An opaque string as far as the server is concerned that
is intended solely to allow async clients to differentiate different
results more easily. Optional.
Specific for this script
*usergroup_id* - ID for the Usergroup.
RESULTS
The script returns an XML document in the standard LUMP response format
(as documented in LUMP-XML-Response). The <returns> section's contains
the XML structure following this DTD fragment:
<!ELEMENT returns (usergroup+)>
<!ELEMENT usergroup (id|group_name|members)>
<!ELEMENT members (member+)>
<!ELEMENT member (id|username|fullname|email)>
<!ELEMENT id (#PCDATA)>
<!ELEMENT group_name (#PCDATA)>
<!ELEMENT username (#PCDATA)>
<!ELEMENT fullname (#PCDATA)>
<!ELEMENT email (#PCDATA)>
For example:
<response>
<returns>
<id>345</id>
<group_name>Wibbling Reading List Owners</group_name>
<members>
<member>
<id>2343</id>
<username>aker</username>
<fullname>Aker Demic</fullname>
<email>aker.demic@example.ac.uk</email>
