Hi Ben,
just send me an email (ralf at hirning.de) and you can get a 1 month test
license (full functionality, but you are not entitled to use it for
production).
I am using Magnolia Packager on my Magnolia 2.1.5 sites for deploying change
requests and for backup. Originally I created Magnolia Packager for Magnolia
2.1.5. So all the features are available, but the user interface is a little
bit different.
The idea behind Magnolia Packager is that you can bundle packages with
whatever you need for your Magnolia project.
For illustration let us look at an example using two packages:
1. The definition of the package for all my templates (and paragraphs)
+ config repository: /modules/templating/Paragraphs/rhg
+ config repository: /modules/templating/Templates/rhg
+ config repository: /modules/templating/dialogs/paragraphs/rhg
+ config repository: /modules/templating/dialogs/templates/rhg
+ web application: /docroot/rhg
+ web application: /paragraphs/jsp/rhg
+ web application: /templates/jsp/rhg
2. The definition of the package for a site's content:
+ website repository: /site
Two examples what you can do with these two packages:
1. Clone the site:
- setup a blank Magnolia instance (including Magnolia Packager)
- upload and install template package
- upload and install content package
- restart the instance
2. Deploying change requests:
- make your changes on your dev environment (I use Magnolia integrated
in Eclipse)
- backup (download) the templating package from your dev environment
- upload and install the templating package to your instances
according your deployment process:
-- test environment to test your changes
-- production environment

Betreff: [magnolia-user] Magnolia Packager and Magnolia 2.1.5
I'm about to purchase Magnolia Packager. Before doing so, can someone
confirm from personal experience that this will give me a programmatic
approach to releasing config nodes in Magnolia 2.1.5? I do not intend to
upgrade to 3.0 at this time. (Long story short, I want to avoid the
manual process of releasing configs and have them go out with the rest
of template code in svn.)
If Dr. Hirning is listening, I'd love to hear from you.
Thanks,
Ben Brock
