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

The Spotfire library content can be exported manually via the Library Administration tool in the TIBCO Spotfire Analyst 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 <true|false> | --include-access-rights=<true|false>] <-i value | --item-type=value> <-l value | --library-path=value>

Example:

C:\tibco\tss\7.0.0\tomcat\bin> config export-library-content -p=C:\tibco\tss\7.0.0\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\7.0.0\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.
