The following APIs have hardcoded values and a lot of "FIXME" tags in the code. They are highly experimental and should not be relied upon. They are available so that other developers can improve them. If you are a developer, please file an issue and let's discuss how we can make the code more flexible. You can also contract Coop SymbioTIC to adapt this code for your organisation's needs.
Regionlookuprepresent.Updatefederalridings contact_sub_type=Federal_riding
This API will import/update a list of federal ridings into CiviCRM. The
contact_sub_type must be specified. The are a lot of odd things about this
import: it will import the Party name as a string (instead of an indexed list)
and it will import the MP name in custom fields (instead of creating a separate
individual contact).
Regionlookuprepresent.Ridinglookup
Assuming the contacts have a "federal riding" custom field (of type "contact reference") and a known postal address, this API call will lookup their (federal) riding in Represent (using either their geolocation).
- CiviCRM >= 4.7 (latest CiviCRM version recommended)
- latest version of ca.bidon.regionlookup (https://github.com/mlutfy/ca.bidon.regionlookup)
