Subject: [GS/SS Beta] [ANN] pier exporter/importer
I have created a little utility to ease the export and import of a pier kernel. Some things are missing but it works ok. I release it to get ideas and critics if it does make sense at all :)
You can use it this way
PEPierExporter current
directoryPath: '/opt/my-pier-instance/';
kernel: (PRKernel instanceNamed: 'pier');
exportAll
It creates an archive of a pier kernel in the specified directory. The pier kernel is exported as kernel.xml to the directory. Furthermore a visitor collects all instances of MAExternalFileModel and copies the files in a directory files/ under the specified directory. A directory layout could look like this
/opt/my-pier-instance/
kernel.xml
files/
35/
ynbgnob8q3rm8ez6zoakw0po2hdu7m/

eb/
...
This way you can archive the whole directory and transfer it to somewhere else. A
PEPierImporter current
directoryPath: '/opt/my-pier-instance/';
importPierKernel
will read the kernel.xml back in and puts it in the PRKernel instances list. From that point it should be selectable from the web interface. The exported files are not copied back, yet. This is because I'm not totally confident that this is good idea. The files can be copied manually as well. If you would find that useful I'll add the copy back.
The packages are in
MCHttpRepository
location: '
http://source.selfish.org/mc/pier' user: 'small'
password: 'talk'
You need to load the packages Pier-Exchange and Pier-GemStone-Exchange. Before you load Pier-GemStone-Exchange you need to load GsUtil-Sixx from
MCHttpRepository
location: '
http://source.selfish.org/mc/misc' user: 'small'
password: 'talk'
I'm sure there are bugs. So don't hesitate to complain.
Hoper you like it,
