[Building Sakai] Register tool as Import source

[Paul Marais]

Hi,

 

just an update on this issue - 

after some digging in the code it looks like it has something to do with an
EntityProducer.

I've injected a spring bean now. The bean class implements EntityProducer
and EntityTransferrer. (Not yet sure if I need both)

I've initialised the bean with a String label,
org.sakaiproject.entity.api.EntityManager and my tool id (as in the xml
registration file).

It looks like my tool is now displaying as an option to import data from :)

 

Now, I just need to figure out how to implement the import/export behaviour.

Any help on this would be welcome.

 

Thanks

Paul

Hi,

 

I've got a custom tool and I want to register the tool as an import source.

In other words, I want the tool to show in the ' Re-use material from Other
Sites' screen.

Is this possible for custom tools?

 

The tool stores its content in a MySQL db and Resources.

What APIs can I use to copy (import/export) the contents from these
locations when the tool is selected in the above mentioned screen?

 

Thank you

Paul
