I am building a conversion script (to save some of my sanity) and the first thing I want it to do is to duplicate a resource and all its children before I begin manipulating it.

I can get the resource/duplicate processor to run and execute a duplicate. But, I can't seem to figure out how to get a reference to the new resource object so that I can change a few values (template, class_key) as well as get the id to do some transforming on the children.

code is here:

$resource = $modx->getObject('modResource', array('id'=>$id));
$newObj = $modx->runProcessor('resource/duplicate', array(
'id'=>$id,
 'duplicate_children'=>true,
'name'=>'New Obj '.$resource->get('pagetitle')));

Using MODx 2.3.2, and this is a snippet as I would only need to run it once, then delete the snippet.

something like that maybe:

if ($response->isError()) {
    $updateerror = true;
    $errormsg = $response->getMessage();
}else{
    $r = $response->getObject();
    if (isset($r['id'] && $resource = $modx->getObject('modResource',$r['id']))){
        //do something with $resource
    }
}

-------------------------------

you can buy me a beer, if you like MIGX

The response->getObject() part was what I was missing.

All fixed up.
