hook for membership changes?
March 10, 2011, 12:34:39 pm
Hi all

Is there a hook that gets fired when a contact joins and gets a membership? 
I'm asking because I'd like to sync their membership with certain drupal roles as soon as they join, not on cron run when everyone gets their roles sync via the civicrm_member_roles module.

Thanks!

Rimu

Hi Rimu,

Have you tried hook_civicrm_post (http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC33/CiviCRM+hook+specification#CiviCRMhookspecification-hookcivicrmpost)?

Yeah, that does look like one way to do it, although I'm holding out for a more targetted way. Intercepting every database access from anywhere in Civicrm by anyone and then trying to pick out the right one seems clumsy.

yeah, thats one of the main disadvantages of the hook system (and our implementation).

at some stage in the future, we'll make the pre/post and the formHooks specific to an object / form /page and hence avoid the conditional on objName / formName / pageName
