how do I create a resource from a snippet in evo ?

Hi
I need to create a new resource in modx evo (1.0.4) automatically from a snippet.
I've seen the $modx->runProcessor method in articles, but this is only for revolution.
Is there a method like this I can use for evo ? and if so is there any documentation for this.

Maybe I've missed something obvious ?

Any advice gratefully received.

In Evolution, you have to create all the appropriate resource fields and add a row to the modx_site_content table using SQL.

PLEASE, PLEASE specify the version of MODX you are using . . . PLEASE!

Is this what you have in mind? http://www.pogwatch.com/pubkit.html

There's also a library for managing resources from the front-end, but I can't think of its name at the moment. I'll post if I can find it.

Ah, yes. It was part of the original pkblog package; the latest versions appear to be modified for Revo but the original is for Evo. http://modx.com/extras/package/docmanager?version=4d556ac7b2b083396d0001fa [ed. note: sottwell last edited this post 14 years, 8 months ago.]

That is great !

This has also made me realise how straight forward the database is (unlike some other CMS's I could mention ! ).

Many thanks.

Well, Evo is anyway. Revo is another story, although most of the resource and element tables are the same.
