build bridging scanner and Active Directory with scanner API (xml)

[黄祥]

is it possible to build bridging scanner and Active Directory with scanner API (xml) using web2py?

e.g. xml for Menu to choosing system

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

<SerioCommands version="1.0">

<DisplayForm>

<Script>

<![CDATA[

<UiScreen>

<Title>Select Job</Title>

<LinkScreen>

<LinkControl>

<LinkItem href="./scan2ftp.xml">

<Label>Scan</Label>

</LinkItem>

<LinkItem href="./copy.xml">

<Label>Copy</Label>

</LinkItem>

</LinkControl>

</LinkScreen>

</UiScreen>

]]>

</Script>

</DisplayForm>

</SerioCommands>

e.g. xml for copy

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<SerioCommands version="1.0">

<IoCopy>

<ColorMode>Auto</ColorMode>

<Density>Normal</Density>

<Ratio>100</Ratio>

<Layout>Normal</Layout>

<LayoutOrientation>Landscape</LayoutOrientation>

<Sorting>true</Sorting>

<NumCopies>1</NumCopies>

<JobFinAckUrl>./selesai.xml</JobFinAckUrl>

</IoCopy>

<DisplayInfo>

<Script>

<![CDATA[

<UiScreen infoLevel="Normal">

<IoScreen>

<IoObject>

<Title>Copy</Title>

<Message>executing copy</Message>

</IoObject>

</IoScreen>

</UiScreen>

]]>

</Script>

</DisplayInfo>

</SerioCommands>

e.g. xml for FTP command

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>

<SerioCommands version="1.0">

<IoScanAndSend>

<TxProfiles>

<Ftp>

<FtpParams>

<FileName>test</FileName>

<Host>example.com</Host>

<User>usertest</User>

<Password>123456789</Password>

<StoreDir>/</StoreDir>

<PassiveMode>true</PassiveMode>

<PortNum>21</PortNum>

</FtpParams>

</Ftp>

</TxProfiles>

<!-- <ScanTray>FB</ScanTray> -->

<ColorMode>Gray</ColorMode>

<Resolution>Low</Resolution>

<!-- <FileType>JPEG</FileType> -->

<FileType>PDF</FileType>

<JobFinAckUrl>./done.xml</JobFinAckUrl>

</IoScanAndSend>

<DisplayInfo>

<Script>

<![CDATA[

<UiScreen>

<IoScreen>

why not ? what's your problem ?

[黄祥]

i don't know how to do it, so perhaps someone can give a pointer, i take a look at the book it seems i need to use ldap login 

from gluon.contrib.login_methods.ldap_auth import ldap_auth

auth.settings.login_methods.append(ldap_auth(mode='ad',

   server='my.domain.controller',

   base_dn='ou=Users,dc=domain,dc=com'))

n for xml part, i don't know how to handle it, just start to learn from the simple thing 

e.g.

controllers/default.py

def test():

    test_date = request.now

    test_string = 'test string'

    test_integer = 1

    test_float = 0.2

    test_list = [1, 2, 3]

    test_tuple = (7, 8, 9)

    test_dict = {'k0' : 'v', 'k1':3}

    return dict(test_date = test_date, 

    test_string = test_string, 

    test_integer = test_integer, 

    test_float = test_float, 

    test_list = test_list, 

    test_tuple = test_tuple, 

    test_dict = test_dict)

look into url http://127.0.0.1:8000/a/default/test.xml :

<document>

<test_list>

<item>1</item>

<item>2</item>

<item>3</item>

</test_list>

<test_date>2016-12-07 06:45:04.252299</test_date>

<test_integer>1</test_integer>

<test_float>0.2</test_float>

<test_tuple>(7, 8, 9)</test_tuple>

<test_dict>

<k1>3</k1>

<k0>v</k0>

</test_dict>

<test_string>test string</test_string>

</document>

question 1:

so i assume, i need a dict {} to generate the xml, the question is why there is <document> in the xml result? is it possible to have different at the top?

e.g.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?>

<SerioCommands version="1.0">

...

</SerioCommands>

question 2:

how to generate the CDATA in xml ?

e.g.

<![CDATA[

...

]]>

question 3:

why i can't create dict in dict to produce xml result like

<UiScreen>

<Title>Select Job</Title>

<LinkScreen>

<LinkControl>

<LinkItem href="./scan2ftp.xml">

<Label>Scan</Label>

</LinkItem>

<LinkItem href="./copy.xml">

<Label>Copy</Label>

</LinkItem>

</LinkControl>

</LinkScreen>

</UiScreen>

it's still absolutely NOT clear what you need to do. "bridge a scanner with LDAP" is quite vague....
