I want to create a user in process.yml

Hi there,

I am working on a student management system. My ideal is each time I create a new student, I want to also create a user related to this student, to login the system.

So that I think I must work with process.yml. But I cannot found the way to create a new user, because the password needs encrypt.

Do you guys have any ideal?
Thanks

Hi,

I found a solution

PHP

- '@create_entity': class: Oro\Bundle\UserBundle\Entity\User attribute: $.userEntity # flush: true data: email: $email username: $email firstName: $firstName lastName: $lastName plainPassword: 'pass@@word' organization: $organization owner: $owner - '@call_service_method': service: oro_user.manager method: updateUser method_parameters: ['$.userEntity', true]

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16

- '@create_entity':                     class: Oro\Bundle\UserBundle\Entity\User                     attribute: $.userEntity                     # flush: true                     data:                         email:          $email                         username:       $email                         firstName:      $firstName                         lastName:       $lastName                         plainPassword:  'pass@@word'                         organization:   $organization                         owner:          $owner                 - '@call_service_method':                         service: oro_user.manager                         method: updateUser                         method_parameters: ['$.userEntity', true]

Hi @thinh2010,

Not entirely sure if this is going to work, but you might create a sample process like this and modify it to your needs. If I’m not mistaken when a user is created through the GUI, the password is being encrypted after submitting. So having the PlainPassword attribute set, might help with your quest of creating a User in a process.

YAML

label: 'Create Oro User based on Student entity' enabled: true entity: Acme\Bundle\AcmeBundle\Entity\Student order: 100 actions_configuration: - @tree: actions: - @create_entity: # create Oro User class: Oro\Bundle\UserBundle\Entity\User attribute: $user data: username: $.studentFirstname email: $.studentEmail firstName: $.studentFirstname lastName: $.studentLastname middleName: $.studentMiddleName plainPassword: $.studentPassword

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17

label: 'Create Oro User based on Student entity'         enabled: true         entity: Acme\Bundle\AcmeBundle\Entity\Student         order: 100         actions_configuration:             - @tree:                 actions:                     - @create_entity: # create Oro User                         class:     Oro\Bundle\UserBundle\Entity\User                         attribute: $user                         data:                             username:     $.studentFirstname                             email:        $.studentEmail                             firstName:    $.studentFirstname                             lastName:     $.studentLastname                             middleName:   $.studentMiddleName                             plainPassword: $.studentPassword

Hope this helps!

@Hi Jaimy,

Thanks for your reply. I already found a way to do it, and posted above.

Your code I think will not work because if you just set the plainPassword, there is exception said that you need password to create an User (I already tried it before and got this error)

So that you need call the updateUser function in UserManager via @call_service_method to generate encrypted password from plainPassword.

Thinh

Hi @thinh2010,

Good call on the call_service_method, that will do the trick :). It’s nice of you to post the solution you’ve found, since there might be others who’re dealing with some of the same issues as you were having with the creation of an User via a different way than the GUI. This will might help others in their development with OroCRM

Kind Regards,
