Exporting¶

• dump all records in pycsw repository
• use pycsw-admin.py to export all records to XML files on disk

$ pycsw-admin.py -c export_records -f /path/to/default.cfg -p /tmp/metadata

• creates files in /tmp/metadata
• files are named by metadata record identifier
• want to import them back into another repository?

$ pycsw-admin.py -c setup_db -f /path/to/default.cfg
$ pycsw-admin.py -c load_records -f /path/to/default.cfg -p /tmp/metadata
