Ramesh Reddy commented on TEIIDDES-2401:
----------------------------------------
Designer already building the vdb.xml when a .vdb file is created. The extra step it
needs to do is iterate over models in the vdb, then query for their DDL from server then
include in a metadata element of model for the vdb.xml. This can also help us phase out
.vdb version of the artifact.
Add support exporting the Designer VDB as Dynamic VDB
-----------------------------------------------------
Key: TEIIDDES-2401
URL:
https://issues.jboss.org/browse/TEIIDDES-2401
Project: Teiid Designer
Issue Type: Feature Request
Components: Import/Export
Reporter: Ramesh Reddy
When a VDB is developed in the Designer, provide an option to export the given VDB as
Dynamic VDB, which is simple XML format using DDL.
The server already provides mechanism to retrieve the schema (DDL) for a given model.
Using this technique of retrieving the DDL, this feature can be built.
One caveat is support for XML document models in Dynamic VDB. When VDB contains XML
document model, do not support this feature.
This has couple benefits
* Users can use these in Teiid for simplified usage.
* Can used to check the models into source repository like GIT or SVN etc and compare
with later versions for modifications
* Open Shift
As for importing of Dynamic VDB, that can be handled as separate issue.
