1. ImportExportPortlet

2. Import/Export for BookmarksPortlet

ImportExportPortlet

Portlet Front-End for Import/Export

ImportExportPortlet

• Developed with the University of Illinois in early September

• Supports all existing Import/Export/Delete operations except those that start with all- (e.g. all-users, all-layouts, etc.)

• Use portlet preferences (at publish time) to restrict allowable operations

Status

• It's not pretty (could use UE work)

• Prototype developed for uP 2.6

• Tracked as UP-2182 in JIRA

• UP-2181 (Refactor crn-export XML to move responsibility for writing documents out of the individual export scripts) is a blocker

Loose Ends

• Better error handling

– No stack trace

– User-friendly message

• Better user feedback

– Report operation details on success

• Launch download automatically

• Pretty-print exported files

Import/Export for BookmarksPortlet

Import/Export for BookmarksPortlet

• Anthony Colebourne (University of Manchester) organized Cernunnos-based Export for Cbookmarks in late November

• Document format is XBEL

• Afterward I developed XBEL Import for BookmarksPortlet

• Not precisely “Import/Export” (not yet), but it's a migration path from the channel to the portlet

XBEL Example

<xbel>

<title>My Bookmarks</title>

<info>

<metadata owner="admin"/>

</info>

<folder folded="yes" id="n1168638030077">

<title>Internet Giants</title>

<bookmark href="http://www.google.com/" id="n1168638095707">

<title>Google</title>

<desc>Find exactly what you're looking for</desc>

</bookmark>

</folder>

</xbel>

Status

• Cbookmarks export always specifies “Default user” as owner

• Tracked as PBOOK-

• Import doesn't support XBEL aliases

• Command line invoker needs work to play with Maven more nicely

• Currently requires Cernunnos SNAPSHOT build
