Functions¶

Finding config files and templates

search_fullpath ( $that, $name, [ opt => val, ...] )

    # To get file name for global site
    $file = Sympa::search_fullpath('*', $name);
    # To get file name for a robot
    $file = Sympa::search_fullpath($robot_id, $name);
    # To get file name for a family
    $file = Sympa::search_fullpath($family, $name);
    # To get file name for a list
    $file = Sympa::search_fullpath($list, $name);
    

Look for a file in the list > robot > site > default locations.

Possible values for options:
order => 'all'
subdir => directory ending each path
lang => language
lang_only => if paths without lang subdirectory would be omitted

Returns full path of target file "root/subdir/lang/name" or "root/subdir/name". root is the location determined by target object $that. subdir and lang are optional. If "lang_only" option is set, paths without lang subdirectory is omitted.

get_search_path ( $that, [ opt => val, ... ] )

    # To make include path for global site
    @path = @{Sympa::get_search_path('*')};
    # To make include path for a robot
    @path = @{Sympa::get_search_path($robot_id)};
    # To make include path for a family
    @path = @{Sympa::get_search_path($family)};
    # To make include path for a list
    @path = @{Sympa::get_search_path($list)};
    

make an array of include path for tt2 parsing

IN :
-$that(+) : ref(Sympa::List) | ref(Sympa::Family) | Robot | "*"
-%options : options

Possible values for options:
subdir => directory ending each path
lang => language
lang_only => if paths without lang subdirectory would be omitted

OUT : ref(ARRAY) of tt2 include path

Sending Notifications

send_dsn ( $that, $message, [ { key => val, ... }, [ $status, [ $diag ] ] ] )

    # To send site-wide DSN
    Sympa::send_dsn('*', $message, {'recipient' => $rcpt},
        '5.1.2', 'Unknown robot');
    # To send DSN related to a robot
    Sympa::send_dsn($robot, $message, {'listname' => $name},
        '5.1.1', 'Unknown list');
    # To send DSN specific to a list
    Sympa::send_dsn($list, $message, {}, '2.1.5', 'Success');
    

Sends a delivery status notification (DSN) to SENDER by parsing delivery_status_notification.tt2 template.

send_file ( $that, $tpl, $who, [ $context, [ options... ] ] )

    # To send site-global (not relative to a list or a robot)
    # message
    Sympa::send_file('*', $template, $who, ...);
    # To send global (not relative to a list, but relative to a
    # robot) message
    Sympa::send_file($robot, $template, $who, ...);
    # To send message relative to a list
    Sympa::send_file($list, $template, $who, ...);
    

Send a message to user(s). Find the tt2 file according to $tpl, set up $data for the next parsing (with $context and configuration) Message is signed if the list has a key and a certificate

Note: List::send_global_file() was deprecated.

send_notify_to_listmaster ( $that, $operation, $data )

    # To send notify to super listmaster(s)
    Sympa::send_notify_to_listmaster('*', 'css_updated', ...);
    # To send notify to normal (per-robot) listmaster(s)
    Sympa::send_notify_to_listmaster($robot, 'web_tt2_error', ...);
    # To send notify to normal listmaster(s) of robot the list belongs to.
    Sympa::send_notify_to_listmaster($list, 'request_list_creation', ...);
    

Sends a notice to (super or normal) listmaster by parsing listmaster_notification.tt2 template.

Parameters:

send_notify_to_user ( $that, $operation, $user, $param )

Send a notice to a user (sender, subscriber or another user) by parsing user_notification.tt2 template.

Parameters:

Internationalization

    $lang = Sympa::best_language($robot, 'de', 'en-US;q=0.9');
    # To get list-specific best language.
    $lang = Sympa::best_language($list, 'de', 'en-US;q=0.9');
    

Chooses best language under the context of List, Robot or Site. Arguments are language codes (see Language) or ones with quality value. If no arguments are given, the value of "HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE" environment variable will be used.

Returns language tag or, if negotiation failed, lang of object.

get_supported_languages ( $that )

Function. Gets supported languages, canonicalized. In array context, returns array of supported languages. In scalar context, returns arrayref to them.

Addresses and users

These are accessors derived from configuration parameters.
