Hello, please find attached a script for setting the quota for existing users. It was inspired by Jakub's email and also aims at automated, scriptable administration of an owncloud instance.
<?php
# Set quota for existing user.
# Author: Stefan Vollmar, 2013, MPI for Neurological Research, Cologne
# using code from Jakub T. Moscicki, 2013, CERN/IT
#
# run on the owncloud application server:
# php -f set-quota.php USER QUOTA
# e.g. php -f set-quota.php aeinstein 3g
# e.g. php -f set-quota.php aeinstein "3 GB"
set_include_path(get_include_path() . PATH_SEPARATOR . '/var/www/owncloud');
require_once 'lib/base.php';
$login = $argv[1];
$quota = $argv[2];
if(OC_User::userExists($login)) {
if($quota!='none' and $quota!='default') {
$quota = OC_Helper::computerFileSize($quota);
$quota = OC_Helper::humanFileSize($quota);
}
print "setting quota of user \"".$login."\" to ".$quota."\n";
OC_Preferences::setValue($login, 'files', 'quota', $quota);
print "done.\n";
}
else {
print "*** ERROR: user \"".$login."\" does not exist.\n";
}
?>
Warm regards,
Stefan
