Using Droogle for an Organization

Sorry I'm not following you. Each group can be assigned a google user account and it can be a user from a google apps domain -- this is how we're using it actually. And what is SSO? Single sign on? If you are looking for single sign on you need to do your own backend work for this. I provided the apis in the appsapis.inc file and we are using these apis to create users dynamically and assign users dynamically as we create groups in an automated way. Droogle is just the front end, the apis provided let you do quite a few things if you are a programmer.

I do consulting work on the side if your company is interested or I can just try my best to answer any questions you have here in the forums.

Yes we are using the apis I created in appsapis.inc to automatically add users to google apps. I just checked the appsapis does include code to add and delete users.

https://developers.google.com/google-apps/provisioning/
If you want to use Droogles apis to learn to create your own.

Here is some of my own sample code that works with my apis.

NOTE: for droogle_retrieve_user the username and password are hard coded so you would need to change the lines:

 function droogle_retrieve_user($username) {
  $client = Zend_Gdata_ClientLogin::getHttpClient('username@domain.edu', 'password', Zend_Gdata_Gapps::AUTH_SERVICE_NAME);
 

* replace username@domain.edu and password with the google apps username and password of an admin enabled account.

<?php
include 'appsapis.inc';

/*THESE FIRST FEW TESTS TEST INTERRACTING WITH GOOGLE DOCUMENTS
*THE file appsapis.inc has the functions being called here and the exceptions should be made to write to a log file or database to log the exceptions
*USAGE:  TO use this test file just uncomment the lines you would like to test and from the command line type php google_tests.php

just comment and uncomment the lines appropriately to run whatever code you want in this file.

yeah for those functions like adding users, retrieving user info, or deleting users just hard code your admin account details one time and you will be good to go. At some point I'll update the apis to pass in this information as a variable so it's more intuitive.

it is just a file I use to test my apis from the command line. It is sample code. put the code in filename.php and then run the file with php filename.php Made sure the file is in the root of the module or the line include 'appsapis.inc'; will not work ... or you can just change the path to be correct relative to where you decide to put your file.

Yeah you have to click a button logged into the google admin interface and enable the api, then make sure the api user you connect as has admin privileges.
