Command line usage

This application offers commands that need to be run from the command line. They deal with the import and export of publications into and from the Django database

publicationimport

This script is used to import a publication into the EOA publication platform.

Usage:

python manage.py publicationimport ${import_dir}

Note

The import directory is mandatory and helps managing several projects at a time.

The script requires these input files and directories:

  • Cover.jpg

  • Django.xml

  • images

  • publication.cfg

Based on the information found in the fields Series and Number of publication.cfg, a new directory will be created in the media directory, e.g. media/studies/14. If the directory already exists, the script fails.

The original input files are also stored in the newly created directory, so the input directory can be deleted.

Once the publication has been successfully imported, it needs be edited and published in the Django admin interface.

publicationexport

Export of a publication to a TEI file.
