NAME
Elive::Entity::Meeting - Elluminate Meeting instance class
DESCRIPTION
This is the main entity class for meetings.
METHODS
insert
Note: the insert() and update() methods are depreciated. For alternatives, please see Elive::Entity::Session.
my $start = time() + 15 * 60; # starts in 15 minutes
my $end = $start + 30 * 60; # runs for half an hour
my $meeting = Elive::Entity::Meeting->insert({
name => 'Test Meeting',
facilitatorId => Elive->login,
start => $start . '000',
end => $end . '000',
password => 'secret!',
privateMeeting => 1,
restrictedMeeting => 1,
seats => 42,
});
#
# Set the meeting participants
#
my $participant_list = $meeting->participant_list;
$participant_list->participants([$smith->userId, $jones->userId]);
$participant_list->update;A series of meetings can be created using the recurrenceCount and recurrenceDays parameters.
#
# create three weekly meetings
#
my @meetings = Elive::Entity::Meeting->insert({
...,
recurrenceCount => 3,
recurrenceDays => 7,
});update
my $meeting = Elive::Entity::Meeting->update({
start => hires-date,
end => hires-date,
name => string,
password => string,
seats => int,
privateMeeting => 0|1,
restrictedMeeting => 0|1,
timeZone => string
});delete
my $meeting = Elive::Entity::Meeting->retrieve($meeting_id);
$meeting->deleteDelete the meeting.
Note:
- Meeting recordings are not deleted.
-
If you also want to remove the associated recordings, you'll need to delete them yourself, E.g.:
my $recordings = $meeting->list_recordings; foreach my $recording (@$recordings) { $recording->delete; } $meeting->delete; - With Elluminate 9.5 onwards, deleted meeting may remain retrievable, but with the deleted property to true.
-
Meetings, Meeting Parameters, Server Parameters and recordings may remain accessible via the SOAP interface for a short period of time until they are garbage collected by ELM.
You'll may need to check for deleted meetings:
my $meeting = Elive::Entity::Meeting->retrieve($meeting_id); if ($meeting && ! $meeting->deleted) { # ... }or filter them out when listing meetings:
my $live_meetings = Elive::Entity::Meeting->list(filter => 'deleted = false');
list_user_meetings_by_date
Lists all meetings for which this user is a participant, over a given date range.
For example, to list all meetings for a particular user over the next week:
my $now = DateTime->now;
my $next_week = $now->clone->add(days => 7);
my $meetings = Elive::Entity::Meeting->list_user_meetings_by_date(
{userId => $user_id,
startDate => $now->epoch.'000',
endDate => $next_week->epoch.'000'}
);add_preload
my $preload = Elive::Entity::Preload->upload( 'c:\tmp\intro.wbd');
my $meeting = Elive::Entity::Meeting->retrieve($meeting_id);
$meeting->add_preload($preload);Associates a preload with the given meeting-Id, or meeting object.
check_preload
my $ok = $meeting_obj->check_preload($preload);Checks that the preload is associated with this meeting.
is_participant
my $ok = $meeting_obj->is_participant($user);Checks that the user is a meeting participant.
is_moderator
my $ok = $meeting_obj->is_moderator($user);Checks that the user is a meeting moderator.
remove_preload
$meeting_obj->remove_preload($preload_obj);
$preload_obj->delete; # if you don't want it to hang aroundDisassociate a preload from a meeting.

print $jnlp;Builds a JNLP for the meeting.
JNLP is the 'Java Network Launch Protocol', also commonly known as Java WebStart. To launch the meeting you can, for example, render this as a web page, or send email attachments with mime type application/x-java-jnlp-file.
Under Windows, and other desktops, files are usually saved with extension JNLP.
