Exporting MashZone NextGen Global Attributes
You can export metadata for all global MashZone NextGen Attributes from the MashZone NextGen Repository to an export file. You can then import this file to another MashZone NextGen Repository.
Note: | This command is available only in MashZone NextGen 3.2 or later. |
1. If it is not running, start the MashZone NextGen Server for the MashZone NextGen Repository with the global MashZone NextGen attributes that you wish to export. See Start and Stop the
MashZone NextGen
Server for instructions. 2. Open a command window and move to the MashZoneNG-install/prestocli/bin folder.
3. Enter this command:
padmin exportGlobalAttribs -f output-file [-l prestoURL]
-u username -w password [-v]
-f output-file: is the path and name of the export file to hold the metadata.
-l prestoUrl: is optional. Use this if the
MashZone NextGen Server is remote or if it is not running in Tomcat on the default Tomcat port. If you omit this option, this defaults to
http://localhost:8080/presto/edge/api.
-u username: is the
MashZone NextGen username to log in with. This account
must have
MashZone NextGen administrator permissions.
-w password: is the
MashZone NextGen password to log in with.
-v: is an optional flag to turn on verbose logging.
All messages and errors from the export process are sent to the command window (stdout). Once the export command completes successfully, you can use the output file to import mashables or mashups to another MashZone NextGen Repository.
