Mike Jackson commented on JBPORTAL-531:
---------------------------------------
For my situation I'd prefer not to use portlet-instances.xml files. I'd rather
just have a way to export the entire setup of the portal which would include the pages,
the pages & portlet instances, security attributes, object "placement",
preferences, etc. from the somewhere in the admin side of the portal. Of course having
the export without an import wouldn't be terribly useful, so I'd want that also.
In my environement I have approximately 6 portals that I periodically need to sync up, so
having something along these lines would be a great time savings for me.
The import function would need to be an overlay of the existing setup, which probably goes
without saying.
The file format doesn't neet to be in XML, so long as the export file is human
readable/editable it doesn't matter what the format is. As long as it isn't too
cryptic and hard to maintain. My above mentioned portals aren't all quite the same,
so I would need to be able to make changes to the export file for each environment prior
to doing the imports.
Import/Export of Portal Page and Portlet Database Settings
----------------------------------------------------------
Key: JBPORTAL-531
URL:
http://jira.jboss.com/jira/browse/JBPORTAL-531
Project: JBoss Portal
Issue Type: Feature Request
Security Level: Public(Everyone can see)
Components: Portal Server
Affects Versions: 2.2 Final, 2.6.2 Final
Reporter: James Williams
Fix For: 2.8 Final
There is a need to export portal page and portlet setting changes that are made via the
"management" portlet GUI interface, and then import those changes in another
JBoss Portal instance.
For example - If I want to migrate all of my QA portal page/portlet changes to Production
today, I have to hard code those changes in the XML descriptors. A db export/import
utility is preferred.
