Developers of Sympa

[Thomas Berry <address@concealed>]

I spoke too soon.. That was exactly the code I was searching for.


use strict;
use Time::Local;

use lib '/usr/local/jpl/msg/list/sympa/bin';
use Conf;
use List;
use Family;

unless(Conf::load('/etc/sympa.conf')) {
   exit 1;
}

my $listname   = lc (shift @ARGV) or die "where's the list name?\n";
my $familyname = shift @ARGV or die "where's the family name?\n";
my $robot      = shift @ARGV or die "where's the name of the robot?\n";

my $family;
unless ($family = Family->new($familyname, $robot)) {
   die "Unable to get family object\n";
}

my $list;
unless ($list = List->new($listname, $robot)) {
   die "Unable to get list config\n";
}

my $param = {
   listname => $listname,
   status   => $list->{'admin'}{'status'},
};

open CONFIG, ">/tmp/config";
tt2::parse_tt2($param,'config.tt2',\*CONFIG,[$family->{'dir'}]);
close CONFIG;

exit 0;
