Hi
We have a requirement to export the content objects of a large plone based intranet site out to a windows filesystem. This would be carried out on a once a week basis in addition to daily back up of the ZODB. Management need to know that all their digital assets are available from outside the ZODB incase of disaster or for any future migration purposes (Hopefully not required!)
I got a tip off about Tres Seaver's fsdump product and have been trying it out on Plone 2.5.3 and Zope 2.9.7
Followed all the readmes and instructions. Created a dumper object and performed a site dump.
I'm only getting .metadata and reference_catalog.catalog, uid_catalog etc files coming out. The site has published folders and files/images etc.
I've tried creating a /home folder with only images and files underneath that and a dump only results in .metadata from there.
Had a look at the code and it looks like it is set-up to dump folders and files/images etc.
Probably missing something. Any comment appreciated.
FSDump predates Plone, and even CMF: it doesn't have support for dumping "arbitrary" content objects. Such support is available in GenericSetup (shipped as part of Plone 2.5). For an example of using the GS framework to extract content folder, see: http://palladion.com/home/tseaver/software/CMFFolderExport Tres. - -- =================================================================== Tres Seaver +1 540-429-0999 tseaver@palladion.com Palladion Software "Excellence by Design" http://palladion.com -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGlPQ8+gerLs4ltQ4RAt17AJ9cU//oPLU9z12HtepsHpE5wRi+XwCff+8b 9urEJRh6Qg4P681KQtdFoO8= =wSQY -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
