[xwiki-users] Exporting a space
Would welcome some advice on how to export the contents of an entire space so that it can be imported into a different XWiki instance. I looked at this: http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Features/Exports and reading between the lines thought that a URL like this should do the trick: http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/export/Space/Page?format=xar&pages=MySpace.%... It does indeed generate a MySpace.xar file, but its contents are not what are desired. Just a single page called %.xml I also noticed this extension: http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Multipage+Export+Applic... Maybe that can do the trick. Advice welcome. Surely this needs to be done all the time so must be easily solvable? Tim
Hello Tim, In order to export a space you need to use the Admin Tools Application<http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Admin+Tools+Application>. After you've installed it navigate to http://localhost:8080/xwiki/bin/view/Admin/Export and select your space from the drop-down list. Now you should see all the documents from that space. The next step is to select all the documents and click on "Add to my package". From the "Your Package" section, select all the documents and then click "Export". You should now have a "package.xar" archive that includes all the pages from your space. Thanks, Manuel On Fri, Sep 20, 2013 at 7:14 PM, Tim Dudgeon <[email protected]> wrote:

I also noticed this extension: http://extensions.xwiki.org/**xwiki/bin/view/Extension/** Multipage+Export+Application<http://extensions.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Extension/Multipage+Export+Application> Maybe that can do the trick.
Advice welcome. Surely this needs to be done all the time so must be easily solvable?
