How to create a membership using rules, using membership entity module

Question

I'm using the membership entity module, and the membership entity commerce module.

I am trying to create a membership using rules, without success yet.

There is one membership action available..to activate the membership but thats all.

EDIT: This is the rule I used for checking out a membership:

    { "rules_at_listing_import_create_user_and_membership" : {
    "LABEL" : "At listing import create user and membership",
    "PLUGIN" : "reaction rule",
    "OWNER" : "rules",
    "REQUIRES" : [
      "rules",
      "commerce_cart",
      "commerce_checkout",
      "membership_entity_commerce",
      "feeds"
    ],
    "ON" : { "feeds_import_listing_import" : [] },
    "DO" : [
      { "entity_create" : {
          "USING" : {
            "type" : "user",
            "param_name" : "[node:field-first-name][node:field-last-name]",
            "param_mail" : [ "node:field-user-email" ]
          },
          "PROVIDE" : { "entity_created" : { "user_created" : "Created user" } }
        }
      },
      { "user_unblock" : { "account" : [ "user-created" ] } },
      { "entity_save" : { "data" : [ "user-created" ], "immediate" : "1" } },
      { "commerce_cart_product_add_by_sku" : {
          "USING" : {
            "user" : [ "user-created" ],
            "sku" : "Listingmember-1y",
            "quantity" : "1",
            "combine" : "1"
          },
          "PROVIDE" : { "product_add_line_item" : { "product_add_line_item" : "Added product line item" } }
        }
      },
      { "commerce_checkout_complete" : { "commerce_order" : [ "product-add-line-item:order" ] } },
      { "membership_entity_commerce_activate_term" : { "commerce_order" : [ "product-add-line-item:order" ] } }
    ]
  }
}

Using this rule, I assume that the membership is created automatically because of the membership product being checked out.

Alternatively, I tried the method without using the membership product, by straight away creating an entity of type membership using rules. That does not work, the membership is not created.

Answer 1

I did a good comparison of the Commerce membership entity module and the Commerce Licenses module, and the commerce licences can do te same, and has a lot more extra features, is more flexible. So switching to that module was my solution.
