[ome-devel] Group switching problem

[Niko Ehrenfeuchter]

Hi everybody,

I'm not 100% sure, but I might have found a regression on #2951 [1] 
trying to specify a particular group when using the CLI, see this 
transcript:

Now my actual question is related, although not identical: as you might 
remember from my last email, I'm using the CLI class from the Python 
module omero.cli to trigger the import of an image into OMERO. 
Initially, I thought something like this would do:

> from omero.cli import CLI
> conn.SERVICE_OPTS.setOmeroGroup(gid)
> cli = CLI()
> cli.loadplugins()
> cli._client = conn.c   # or "cli.set_client(conn.c)" for 5.1
> import_args = ["import", '-d', '101', '/path/to/file.tif']
> cli.invoke(import_args)


Unfortunately, this doesn't work - I'm getting an 
"ome.conditions.SecurityViolation" error.

What's the appropriate way of switching to the non-default group before 
running cli.invoke()?


Thanks a lot!
