Hi all
I can't use the seblod importer to fill seblod contents with fieldX and groupX.
Maybe there is something I miss but I don't find how to tell the importer to fill complex fields such as fieldX/GroupX.
For example with resumes, you generally have several job experiences and training/school items. Such items are defined with groupX in the seblod resume. We have CSV files of the resumes but even if the CSV file has each job experience in a separate column (and for each of them separate sub colums), I don't know how we can dispatch each job in each field of the groupX.
FOr instance each job experience could be defined by:
* name of the company you worked in
* start and end dates
* name of your position in this company
* description of what you did there
In the CSV file we could have (if we limit the number of jobs to 3):
company_name1; start_date1;end_date1;position1;description1; company_name2 start_date2;end_date2;position2;description2;company_name3; start_date3;end_date3;position3;description3;
but in the seblod RESUME content type we could have one groupX 'job exeperience' with sub fields (company_name; start_date;end_date;position;description;)
Shold we write our own PHP routine to import such contents or can the seblod importer do the job please?
thanks

Hi,
theoretical you can import groupx data, first you need to create groupx field with storage like
Custom-article-fieldname
Then you can import data to this database/colum, as groupx field is just a text, but , of course this data needs to be in Seblod custom format like
<br />::grxdbtest::2::/grxdbtest::<br /><br />::cck_grxdbtest::feild_x_test::/cck_grxdbtest::<br />::user_gender|0|grxdbtest::M::/user_gender|0|grxdbtest::<br />::art_title|0|grxdbtest::a::/art_title|0|grxdbtest::<br />::user_email|0|grxdbtest::a::/user_email|0|grxdbtest::<br />::user_first_name|0|grxdbtest::a::/user_first_name|0|grxdbtest::<br />::class_test_text_field|0|grxdbtest::a::/class_test_text_field|0|grxdbtest::<br />
etc..
You would also need a second form matching your fields and converter to get your data to this custom format. Format is not very complex so this can be done - but unfortunately there is no direct support for it in Seblod importer.
Thanks for your answer Klas, i understand what you just said, but my question was specifically how do i get the regex who could give me this "not very complex" format ?
I hoped i could get some functions like getGroupXRegex or somethin in these lines, but i just couldn't see any of it in the source code plugins/cck_field/group_x/group_x.php =/
Hi,
you need to look into cck_storage/custom.php and related functions from libraries/cck/content/content.php
Hi,
Thanks for your answer, to be honest i already looked at these functions in libraries/cck/content/content.php ( getRegex() , getRegex_Field or getRegex_Group ) but when i tried to use it i just can't make it work >__<
I therefore looked for a way to use these functions instead of doing it by hand like i do yet, but i didn't found any simple code using these functions i the purpose to create data before recording these,...
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Thank you again
