Yeah, I don't think we have such a feature yet, that's a good point. Can you file an issue about it please? In the meantime, you can achieve the same thing by running the relevant camtool search query, parse the results, and add them as camliMember (with camput attr) to the permanode that represents your "animals" set.

Then if sha1-foo is the blobRef for your animals permanode, you just set the attribute "camliPath:pets" = "sha1-foo" on the publish root permanode. You might have to create that root, it is just a permanode with the "camliRoot" attribute set to whatever you chose in your publisher configuration (https://camlistore.org/doc/server-config#publishing) > Is it better to use a set or a path in this case?

It technically should work to publish each item individually on the camliRoot (if not, please do file a bug), but they would then need to each have their own base camliPath (pets1, pets2, etc). So I usually publish sets as i find it an easier way to organize things. > I really like the tool and am using it as a backup for photographs.

Please be advised that we broke the publisher on tip recently (fixing it is my priority), and that you should stay below commit faac33f4097e1ff3f6cb4fe661525df69304d497 until it is fixed. > Sorry, lots of questions as I try to figure out a good workflow. > > Thanks > Sid > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Camlistore" group. > To unsubscribe from this group and stop receiving emails from it, send an > email to [email protected]. > For more options, visit https://groups.google.com/d/optout. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Camlistore" group.
