getUser(username) this method gets a user given the user's
username.
Parameters
- username
- A string representing the username of the user.
Returns
Returns a ScriptUser object, or null if the user cannot be found.
Example
var username = "joe.user";
model.scriptUser = groups.getUser(username);
The returned ScriptUser object can be passed to the following FreeMarker template code:
<p>authorityType: ${scriptUser.authorityType}</p>
<p>shortName: ${scriptUser.shortName}</p>
<p>fullName: ${scriptUser.fullName}</p>
<p>userName: ${scriptUser.userName}</p>
<p>displayName: ${scriptUser.displayName}</p>
<p>personNodeRef: ${scriptUser.personNodeRef}</p>
<p>person.properties.name: ${scriptUser.person.properties.name}</p>
<p>person.type: ${scriptUser.person.type}</p>
The preceding FreeMarker code would display results similar to the following:
authorityType: USER
shortName: joe.user
fullName: joe.user
userName: joe.user
displayName: joe.user
personNodeRef: workspace://SpacesStore/4d7abb60-d8ff-4fcf-956f-93e53ebafed0
