Description

The ezpm.php script, located in the root directory of eZ Publish, allows to execute package management operations from the command line.
This is very useful to eg. import a package that is too big and would result in a timeout if imported via the web interface (or viceversa to create a very big export package).

add <packagename> <contentobject> [options] [path|node]

Adding classes, templates and objects to the package.

Option	Description
--include-classes	Include class definitions in package (default)
--include-templates	Include related template files in package (default)
--exclude-classes	Do not include class definitions in package
--exclude-templates	Do not include related template files in package
--language	Comma separated list of languages to export. If not supplied the value is taken from settings.
--current-version	Export only the published version for all objects. (default)
--all-versions	Export all versions for all objects.
--node-main	Export only main node for all objects. (default)
--node-selected	Export all nodes for all objects.
--siteaccess	Comma separated list of siteaccess to get definitions from, determines template override data and designs. If not supplied the value is taken from default siteaccess.
path	The path is chosen in the same manner as the URL alias which is shown in the path in the browser. If you want to export all objects under the node you must add /* to the end of the path e.g. news/this_is_news ,news or news/* Note: To fetch the entire tree including users and media you must use an empty string, e.g. ''

Examples

Filtering added content

You can filter content you are adding to packages. This is done by calling packagehandler classes (see kernel/classes/packagehandler) and specifying dedicated parameters. Note that this is not fully documented and not supported as the recommended way it to use the admin interface. The following command lines are just provided as examples of this usage.

Create a new package and add contentclasses to it

Note: If you're only adding content classes to your package, you should also set the type of the package to "contentclass".

$ php -C ezpm.php create testclasspackage
$ php -C ezpm.php add testclasspackage ezcontentclass folder,article
$ php -C ezpm.php set testclasspackage type contentclass

Create a new package and add a subtree to it (by path)

$ php -C ezpm.php create test_package "Test Package Creation"
$ php -C ezpm.php add test_package ezcontentobject --exclude-templates --exclude-classes --siteaccess=eng "your_path_to_content/*"

Create a new package and add a subtree to it (by nodeid)

Note: make sure to have the patch for https://jira.ez.no/browse/EZP-23299 applied. It is included in ezpublish 5.4, and will apply on older versions.

For example with node ID 74

$ php -C ezpm.php create test_package2 "Test Package Creation2"
$ php -C ezpm.php add test_package2 ezcontentobject --exclude-templates --exclude-classes --siteaccess=eng 74
