You could try using
bin/dumpdb lists/listname/config.pck
instead of config_list. That should be a little quicker; possibly
quicker even than a withlist script.
Although, if you were to use bin/withlist -a rather than invoking
bin/dumpdb separately for each list, that might be better.
Consider get_data.py as follows:
def get_data(mlist, user):
print "Mailing List: %s" % mlist.real_name
print "Subscribe Policy: %d" % mlist.subscribe_policy
print "Default Moderation: %s" % mlist.default_member_moderation
print "Advertised: %s" % mlist.advertised
print "%s is member: %s" % (user, mlist.isMember(user))
and run by
bin/withlist -a -r get_data -- [EMAIL PROTECTED]
That's probably not really what you want as I had to guess what you
meant by "Postings" and "Access" and my guesses gave some things that
aren't available from config_list.
