How to export or backup a project from the Spotfire library using the command line interface (CLI).

Product: TIBCO Spotfire Analyst

All Supported Versions/All Supported Operating Systems

The Spotfire library content can be exported manually via the Library Administration tool in the installed Analyst/Professional client.

This can also be performed via the command line config tool which allows the process to be automated to create regular backups/snapshots of the library content.

To perform a command line export of library content, use the config tool command "export-library-content".

Syntax:

export-library-content [-f | --force] [-b value | --bootstrap-config=value] [-t value | --tool-password=value] <-p value | --file-path=value> <-u value | --user=value> [-a | --include-access-rights=] <-i value | --item-type=value> <-l value | --library-path=value>

Example:

C:\tibco\tss\6.5.0\tomcat\bin> config export-library-content -p=C:\tibco\tss\6.5.0\tomcat\application-data\library\myCommandlineExport -u=myUser -l=/myFolder/mySubFolder -i=folder

Result:

The myCommandlineExport.part0.zip will be created in the specified (C:\tibco\tss\6.5.0\tomcat\application-data\library\) folder. If no file path is specified, the exported file will be created in the \tomcat\bin\ folder where the config.bat tool resides.
