Importing CSV Files

With the --csv-import <CSV file> option a full path to a CSV file with user data to import can be specified. This option makes mandatory command line options obsolete, except credential options (if needed). But they have to be set in the CSV file.

With this option you can specify a csv file (a full pathname must be given) with the data which should be imported. The columnnames in the CSV file must be the same as the long-options of the command line tools, without the prefix "--".

This option will normally be used to fill new large installations with the new data. So instead of calling the command line tools in a shell script every time, just a csv file needs to be created, containing the whole data.

Note that the credentials of the masteradmin in the createcontext call must be given on the command line with the -A and -P options nevertheless - if authentication is enabled. If the createuser command line tool is used, the credentials are part of the csv file, and cannot be set as options on the command line itself. The reason for this different behavior is that different contexts have different credentials for the admin user, so they must be set in every line of the csv file. Opposed to this the credentials of the masteradmin are always the same.

MODULE ACCESS

With Open-Xchange it is possible to limit the access to the available modules per context i. e., all users in one context per default get the same access rights. The rights though can be changed per user. Currently, following modules are implemented: access-calendar, access-contacts, access-delegate-tasks, access-edit-public-folder, access-ical, access-infostore, access-read-create-shared-Folders, access-tasks, access-vcard, access-webdav, access-syncml and access-webmail. There are several combinations possible and four are supported (not mentioned modules need to be disabled). This limitation is needed because some modules depend on access to others. There are different Open-Xchange packages available for the customer: Webmail+, PIM+, Groupware+, Premium. These packages have to be configured per context i. e., all users in a context need to use the same package. Each package consists of a combination of modules that has to be set up appropriately. The following sections quickly introduce the packages and their module configuration. Open-Xchange also provides the possibility to use "access combination names" when creating and changing contexts/users. If you want to change the package acess rights for a context, you can simply add the "access-combination-name" switch to the appropriate tool (createcontext,createuser,changecontext etc.).

Webmail+

If there are no access rights specified when creating a new user Webmail+ is used as default. Webmail+ is a base package that allows access to the webmail interface and a personal address book. To grant access to this package, the following modules have to be set to "on" for all users in a context:

  • access-contacts Access combination name: webmail_plus
  • access-webmail Access combinationname: webmail_plus

PIM+

PIM+ is another base package that gives access to the webmailer, personal address book, calendar and tasks. Group appointments and delegating tasks are not supported. To grant access to this package, the following modules have to be set to "on" for all users in a context:

  • access-contacts Access combination name: pim_plus
  • access-webmail Access combination name: pim_plus
  • access-calendar Access combination name: pim_plus
  • access-delegate-tasks Access combination name: pim_plus
  • access-tasks Access combination name: pim_plus

Groupware+

Groupware+ is an upsell package that provides full groupware functionality: private, shared and public folders, conflict handling for appointments, team view. Furthermore, the InfoStore is available. To grant access to this package, the following modules have to be set to "on" for all users in a context:

  • access-contacts Access combination name: groupware_plus
  • access-webmail Access combination name: groupware_plus
  • access-calendar Access combination name: groupware_plus
  • access-delegate-tasks Access combination name: groupware_plus
  • access-tasks Access combination name: groupware_plus
  • access-edit-public-folder Access combination name: groupware_plus
  • access-infostore Access combination name: groupware_plus
  • access-read-create-shared-Folders Access combination name: groupware_plus

Premium

Premium is a desktop integration package. It provides the functionality of the "Groupware+" package and comes with interfaces to integrate with other software: The OXtender for MS Outlook and the WebDAV interface to integrate the InfoStore with desktops. To grant access to this package, the following modules have to be set to "on" for all users in a context:

  • access-contacts Access combination name: premium
  • access-webmail Access combination name: premium
  • access-calendar Access combination name: premium
  • access-delegate-tasks Access combination name: premium
  • access-tasks Access combination name: premium
  • access-edit-public-folder Access combination name: premium
  • access-infostore Access combination name: premium
  • access-read-create-shared-Folders Access combination name: premium
  • access-ical Access combination name: premium
  • access-vcard Access combination name: premium
  • access-webdav Access combination name: premium

All

The setting all is equivalent to premium for ordinary users. For context administrators, it adds the right publicfoldereditable, which allows the admin to change the access rights to public folders for groups. Package access configuration

This section provides a quick overview about the different packages that can be configured per context and the required access configuration:

Module Webmail+ PIM+ Groupware+ Premium
access-calendar off on on on
