=head1 DESCRIPTION

Automates the steps for domain coordinator creation.  This
program also describes a manual procedure (see below).

These are the steps that are executed on the linux operating system:

=over 4

=item * 

Tests to see if user already exists for LON-CAPA, if not it aborts. 

=item *

Set roles.hist and roles.db

=back

=cut

# NOTE: I am interspersing the manual procedure with the automation.
# To see the manual procedure, do perldoc ./make_domain_coordinator.pl

# This is a standalone script.  It *could* alternatively use the
# lcuseradd script, however lcuseradd relies on certain system
# dependencies.  In order to have a focused performance, I am trying
# to avoid system dependencies until the LON-CAPA code base becomes
# more robust and well-boundaried.  make_domain_coordinator.pl should be able
# to run freely as possible, irrespective of the status of a LON-CAPA
# installation.

=head1 OPTIONS

There are no flags to this script.

usage: add_domain_coordinator_privledge.pl [USERNAME:DOMAIN] [NEWDOMAIN]

The first argument specifies the user name domain of an existing user.

The second argument specifies the domain to add to coordinate.

=cut

# ----------------------------------------------- So, are we invoked correctly?
# Two arguments or abort
if (@ARGV!=2) {
    die('usage: add_domain_coordinator_privilege.pl [USERNAME:DOMAIN] [NEWDOMAIN]'.
	"\n");
}
my ($user,$add_domain)=(@ARGV);
my ($username,$domain)=split(':',$user);
if (!grep(/^\Q$add_domain\E$/,&Apache::lonnet::current_machine_domains())) {
    die('**** ERROR **** Domain '.$add_domain.' is unknown'."\n");
}

my $udpath=&propath($domain,$username);
if (!-d $udpath) {
    die ('**** ERROR **** '.$user.' is NOT already defined as a LON-CAPA '.
	 'user.'."\n");
}

=pod

=head1 MANUAL PROCEDURE

There are 2 steps to manually recreating what this script performs
automatically.

You need to decide on two pieces of information
to create a domain coordinator.

 * USERNAME (kermit, albert, joe, etc)
 * DOMAIN (should be a domain for thsi machine from domain.tab)

The examples in these instructions will be based
on two example pieces of information:

 * USERNAME=dc103
 * DOMAIN=103

You will also need to know your "root" password
or your "www" password.

=item 1. (as www). Run CVS:loncapa/doc/rolesmanip.pl:

 Command: [prompt %] perl rolesmanip.pl NEWDOMAIN USERNAME
 Example: [prompt %] perl rolesmanip.pl 103 dc103

if (exists($rolesref->{'/'.$add_domain.'/_dc'})) {
    my ($role,$end,$start) = split('_',$rolesref->{'/'.$add_domain.'/_dc'});
    print(&mt("[_1] already has a dc priviledge for [_2].",
	      $user,$add_domain)."\n");
    if ($start) {
	print(&mt("Start date: [_1]",&Apache::lonlocal::locallocaltime($start)).
	      "\n");

=item 2.

You may further define the domain coordinator user (i.e. dc103)
by going to http://MACHINENAME/adm/createuser.

=cut

# Output success message, and inform sysadmin about how to further proceed.
print("$username is now a domain coordinator for $add_domain\n");
my $hostname=`hostname`; chomp($hostname); # Read in hostname.
print("http://$hostname/adm/createuser will allow you to further define".
      " this user.\n"); # Output a suggested URL.
