SYNOPSIS
scrollkeeper-update [
-v ]
[
-q ]
[
-n ]
[
-p
database-directory ]
[
-o
omf-directories ]
DESCRIPTION
This synchronizes the scrollkeeper database with the OMF directory.
It searches the scrollkeeper OMF directory to identify if any files
were added, removed, or modified and updates its internal database
files to reflect any changes.
This utility is generally executed as the last step of installation,
after the OMF file is copied into place. It is also typically the
last step of uninstallation, after the OMF file is removed. Using this,
an administrator can easily manually install and uninstall documents
into the database. It can also be run to guarantee the database is
fully up-to-date.
Note that because
scrollkeeper-update is normally run during installation and its output is typically
seen by users, non-critical warnings and errors such as those caused
by invalid metadata are written to the log file instead of to the
terminal. Developers should use the log file to identify any problems.
OPTIONS
-v |
Be verbose:
Say which
scrollkeeper-install and
scrollkeeper-uninstall commands are being run to bring the database up to date.
|
-q |
Run in quiet mode, suppressing output of all but the most serious warning and
error messages to STDOUT. Note that most output to the log file will be
unchanged.
|
-n |
Use the network to retrieve the DTD if it is not available via the systems XML
catalog.
|
-p database-directory
|
|
Use database-directory as the directory for the scrollkeeper database
rather than the usual one obtained by running
scrollkeeper-config
--pkglocalstatedir.
|
-o omf-directories
|
|
Examine the directories named in
omf-directories rather than the one usual one obtained by running
scrollkeeper-config
--omfdir (or specified in the
OMF_DIR environment variable if set).
The
omf-directories should be a colon-separated list of directories.
|
|
ENVIRONMENT
OMF_DIR |
|
If no
-o option is specified,
this variable overrides the
scrollkeeper-config-provided OMF directory.
It should be a colon-separated list of directories.
