About library management tools
Detect provides four library management tools that can assist you in exporting, importing and comparing of Detect trigger systems from one environment to another. Exports include the workspace and all its rules and can optionally include all the dependent data sources, type descriptors, entity types, presentation lists, and labels. The four tools are:
*
ExportManager – ExportManager is a command-line tool that exports a system-independent, .xml representation of a specified trigger system. Basic options allow users to include one or more workspaces, to include the dependencies for these workspaces, and to limit the exported dependencies to only those needed by the rules in the specified workspaces.
*
DiffManager – DiffManager is a command-line and/or graphical tool that allows users to see the differences (prior to import) between the rules in an export file, and those in a Detect database (into which a user would subsequently import). The command-line interface can generate a series of text files that describe the differences it finds.
*
ImportManager – ImportManager is a command-line tool that imports a previously exported .xml representation of a trigger system, including any dependencies contained within the specified import file.
*
LibraryManager – LibraryManager is a graphical interface for the ExportManager, ImportManager, and DiffManager command-line tools. Using the graphical interface, users can connect to a specified database, import a selected file, or export a selection of workspaces.
