Juan Pablo Santos RodrÃguez commented on JSPWIKI-454: ----------------------------------------------------- Couldn't be classes added in JSPWIKI-690 extended in order to import a 2.8 repo? If this export/import process becomes part of the installation process, it would ease the migration scenario (i.e., we would not worry about someone's editing while the import takes place). > Export tool > ----------- > > Key: JSPWIKI-454 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/JSPWIKI-454 > Project: JSPWiki > Issue Type: New Feature > Components: Core & storage > Reporter: Janne Jalkanen > Fix For: 2.8.5 > > > In order to facilitate the move to a different backend in 3.0, and also > allowing people the choice of the 3.0 backend provider, we should have an > export tool which can export the old format repository to the JCR XML export > format (System View). This will also be useful in 3.0 for people who want to > have an implementation-independent database dump. > A couple of requirements: > * Must run with existing 2.8.x > * Must have an export functionality in the Admin UI > * Should have also a simple GUI > * Should have also a command-line interface > * Should also export version histories (though there is no standard > representation defined in JCR, we may have to invent our own.) > * May have built-in compression (the XML files are bound to be large) > (For 3.0 it then obviously becomes: add a tool which allows *importing* of > such XML document.) -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
