Export a confluence page for client review (no login required)

[Gijs Epping]

Hi,

We had a problem that we wanted our customers to review technical documentation but i didn't want them to have access to the system. The content of page is private so i couldn't put it on a public page.

Currently there is no option to link to a "private" viewing url that has visibilbe without logging in. So i created a simple script that exports a whole page (attachments and all) and put it in a folder.

It is some ugly coding but it works! just fill in your username, password, the space ID and the page title and you can export it.

<?php
$soapClient = new SoapClient(null, array(
"location" => "http://shopworks.atlassian.net/confluence/rpc/soap-axis/confluenceservice-v1?wsdl",
"uri" => "http://soap.rpc.confluence.atlassian.com",
 "trace" => TRUE));

$soapClient = new SoapClient(
    "http://shopworks.atlassian.net/confluence/rpc/soap-axis/confluenceservice-v2?wsdl"
    ,array("trace" => 1, "exceptions" => 0)
);      
$token = $soapClient->login('username', 'password');

$name_document = 'Title of the document';
$name_space = 'TO';

$page = $soapClient->getPage($token,$name_space,$name_document);
$page2 = $soapClient->renderContent($token, $name_space, $page->id);

$attachments = $soapClient->getAttachments($token,$page->id);

foreach($attachments as $attachment){

    $file = file_get_contents((string)$attachment->url.'&os_username=username&os_password=hk37K');
    $dir = "/home/shopworks/www/wiki/download/attachments/".$page->id.'/';
    
    if(!is_dir($dir)){
       mkdir($dir, 0777);
       chmod($dir, 0777);
    }
    
    file_put_contents($dir.$attachment->fileName, $file);
}

function niceName($name){
    $name = str_replace(' ', '_', $name);
    $name = strtolower($name);
    
    return $name;
}

$str =  str_replace('</style>',$style, $page2);
$str = str_replace('</body>',$footer, $str);

$newName = md5(time()).'-'.niceName($name).'.html';


file_put_contents($newName, $str);
chmod($newName, 0777);

echo 'http://www.shopworks.nl/customerpage/'.$newName;
?>

Hope somebody finds it as usefull as me.

Thank you, the format is html. When you use this with other plugins like Balsamiq or Gliffy you will have some problemns viewing.

Hi Gijs,

Nice work on this - what format does the page get saved as locally? Our Support Staff will proably link this as a posssible workaround for other users - again, great work.

Cheers,

Gary
