Sorry, I’m being a jerk and not following your directions so feel free to 
ignore me, but some unsolicited advice :-)

The proposed terms are still ambiguous. One of OFBiz’s biggest problems is 
there’s a lot of shorthand and ambiguity which makes it really hard for someone 
who occasionally digs in (like me) to figure out what’s going on.

So I’m going to suggest a bit more verbosity:

Load-Data-All
Load-Data-Demo
Load-Data-Seed
Load-Data-Seed-Initial
Load-Data-External
Load-Data-External-Test
Load-Data-External-Demo

to parallel the concepts in the readme. Then at least you can follow the 
concepts through the pipeline. Now the naming of those data loading tasks is 
another function as they are still confusion (seed vs seed initial description 
is confusing!).



• seed: OFBiz and External Seed Data - to be maintained along with source and 
updated whenever a system deployment is updated
• seed-initial: OFBiz and External Seed Data - to be maintained along with 
source like other seed data, but only loaded initially and not updated when a 
system is updated except manually reviewing each line
• demo: OFBiz Only Demo Data
• ext: External General Data (custom)
• ext-test: External Test Data (custom)
• ext-demo: External Demo Data (custom)

While I’m hardly an expert, I’ve always appreciated the pattern of parameters 
following a “Verb-Noun-Adjective” format.  So in this case, Load = Verb, Data = 
what, Adjective = what kind of data we’re loading.

“ext” is also confusing, since it could be confused for “Extension”, but that’s 
another discussion probably.

If you’re a command-line warriors, you can add gradle autocomplete to Bash and 
Zsh:
