Re: [rt-users] Batch user import?
Have look onto this tiny piece of code...
createuser.pl
#!/usr/bin/perl
use strict;
use warnings;
BEGIN { die You must define \$RT_HOME\n
unless exists $ENV{RT_HOME} };
use lib $ENV{RT_HOME}/lib;
use RT;
RT::LoadConfig();
RT::Init();
use RT::Interface::CLI qw(GetCurrentUser loc);
use RT::Tickets;
my $CurrentUser = GetCurrentUser();
die loc(No RT user found.\n) unless ($CurrentUser-Id);
die We need exactly 2 Arguments, Name Email\n unless ($#ARGV==1);
my $UserName=shift @ARGV;
my $Email=shift @ARGV;
my $User = RT::User-new($CurrentUser);
my
($id,$Message)=$User-Create(Name=$UserName,EmailAddress=$Email,Privileged=1,Password='apassword');
if ($id){
print $Message.\n;
}
else{
printThis is a error!\n$Message\n;
}
triggered from a shell script like these:
#!/bin/bash
export RT_HOME=/opt/rt3
P1=/opt/rt3/local/bin/
U1=/opt/rt3/local/bin/userlist
while read zeile; do
set -- $zeile
echo Bearbeite User: $1 $2
/usr/bin/perl ${P1}creatertuser.pl $1 $2
done$U1
you need a csv file called userlist with the needed values.

I'd like to import users into Request Tracker from a CSV or similar file.
I found some info on gossamer, but not enough to get a working solution.
Any really practical solutions are really appreciated.

Re: [rt-users] Batch user import?
Carole, We had to add some users from a legacy system so we just created a perl program and used the RT API to load the Users and various info. I like using the API because it basically does what RT does for you and there is less chance of us missing a step.
