I’m trying to work on a function call using Python that will list the users of any specified group using the function portal_groups.
I’ve been able to successfully do this the opposite way by getting the users groups via portal_membership:
portal.portal_membership.getAuthenticatedMember().getGroups()
Which will return all groups this user is associated with.
So I’ve been testing using portal_groups with function calls similar to this:
portal.portal_groups.getGroupById("staff").getUsers()
Where “staff” is the name of the group. This almost does what I need, but not quite close enough because it lists all groups and all users. Any suggestions or help is greatly appreciated!
It acquires 'getUsers' from somewhere, I guess. Group objects have 'getGroupMemberIds' and 'getGroupMembers' methods. You can see this in Products.GroupUserFolder.GroupDataTool.GroupData. the Products.GroupUserFolder.interfaces.portal_groupdata is a bit cleaner, but seems a little behind the times, as it's missing 'getGroupMemberIds'. Note that this isn't a good topic for zope-dev, but more for plone-users. --jcc
