[IronPython] Automation of Sharepoint Server 2007

[Mitch Barnett]

Hi Chetan,

MOSS 2007 is fully .NET 2.0 (built on ASP.NET 2.0 actually - no COM).  You
can find the SDK at: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms550992.aspx

Note the class library and web service reference down the tree abit.

You can automate pretty much anything and everything you want in MOSS 2007
with IronPython (at least I can in C#, so should be no probs in IP).

Hope that helps,

Mitch

It looks like there are managed APIs (maybe they're just COM wrappers?) for
SharePoint which you could use from IronPython.  A quick search turned up
this site http://www.codeproject.com/useritems/SharePoint_Automation.asp
which is using SharePoint from C#.  From IronPython you would add references
to the assemblies via the clr module:

import clr
clr.AddReference('Microsoft.SharePoint')
... and same for the other assemblies they suggest referencing ...

>From there you need to import the appropriate namespaces, e.g.:

import Microsoft.SharePoint as SP

And then you could start inspecting the namespaces and types available:

dir(SP)

and drill down into the available functionality.  That should line up with
what you see for other examples of automating SharePoint on the web.

Subject: [IronPython] Automation of Sharepoint Server 2007

Hi,
Is it possible to Automate tasks such as creating a site, checking content
types in sharepoint server 2007 with IronPython? if yes how can you give me
some direction I am completely new to the Automation under COM environment.
