Question
createPublishedCollectionSet issue - name parameter is missing or is not a string
I'm calling LRPublishService version of createPublishedCollectionSet
An internal error has occurred.
LrCatalog:createPublishedCollectionSet: name parameter is missing or is not a string
But the name parameter is checked prior to confirm it is a string.
publishService:createPublishedSmartCollection( name, searchDesc, parent, canReturnExisting )
Creates a new published smart collection in this publish service.
It is being called with a catalog:withWriteAccessDo closure.
I presume the publish service is calling into the catalog version of createCollectionSet.
Using the latest version 11.5 and the 11-2 SDK. macOS Monterey. M1.
So the internal error message doesn't seem to make sense given that I'm passing a string as the first argument. I've even forced the call with a string literal and that doesn't work either.
The search criteria comes from code that is already creating working Collections.
I'm wondering if it is failling but incorrectly reporting.
(lua is not a code sample option....)
catalog:withWriteAccessDo("Create Publish Smart Collection", function()
if type(name) ~= "string" then
log("name is not a string", "error")
end
local result = theService.createPublishedCollectionSet(name, publishedCollectionSet, nil)
if result ~= nil then
log("created published smart collection %q", name)
else
log("problem creating smart collection %q", name)
end
end)
