NAME

cfetooldump - dump the contents of a database in XML format

SYNOPSIS

DESCRIPTION

Prints the contents of the specified database in XML format, with comments for human readability. This format can be read by cfetool import.

The -d, -w, and -y options specify which databases to include in the dump, and may be combined. If they are all ommitted, the default is to only dump the weekly database.

OPTIONS

--path|-p directory name: Names the directory in which the database specified by name can be found.
--file|-f filename: Names a file to print the XML to. If this option is omitted, the XML will be printed to the standard output stream.
--daily|-d: Include the daily pattern database in the dump.
--weekly|-w: Include the weekly pattern database in the dump.
--yearly|-y: Include the yearly pattern database in the dump.
--verbose|-v: Print details of the command's execution to the standard output stream. When using this argument, it is recommended that you also provide the -f argument, to avoid sharing the standard output stream.
--help|-h: Print a short help message and then exit.

EXAMPLE

  % cfetool dump temperature --path /my/path -f temperature.xml

Prints the following to the file temperature.xml:

 <!-- cfetool Database Dump -->
 <dump>

        <name> temperature </name>

        <age> 1 </age> <!-- steps (0.001 weeks) -->
