Hi Robin,

You can add additional fields to control the user review scope by adding them to the copy of this:

https://github.com/eprints/eprints/blob/3.3/lib/defaultcfg/cfg.d/user_review_scope.pl

in archives/ARCHIVEID/cfg/cfg.d/

 

I think you might need to add any field that you want to use in the editperms to that first.

 

Then, construct a search object with the fields/values you want, and use the $search->serialise method.

 

Remember that editperms is a multiple field - so it's an array that you can push the value on to.

 

*** ENTIRELY UNTESTED - hopefully enough to get you sorted though ***

my $ds = $session->dataset( "eprint" );

my $searchexp = $ds->prepare_search();

$searchexp->add_field(

    fields => [

      $ds->field( 'userid' ),

    ],

    value => 100,

    match => "EX",

);

 

push @{$user->value( "editperms" )}, $searchexp->serialise;

 

Cheers,

John

 

 

 

 

 

Hello friends of EPrints,

 

Does anybody know how to set editorial scope based on a user role? I don’t think there’s a native way to add them with roles, but based on a role given to a user I would like to assign editperms to the current user ($repo->current_user->{editperms} ) on login and I can’t find the correct syntax. I’ve looked in the documentation for an example how to set this variable and I can’t find much. It should be close to a search equation but it’s stored in the database in the form of 0|1||eprint|-|type:type:ANY:EQ:article|-| . How do I translate that into an array?

 

Looking forward for your advice.
