SYNOPSIS

cfetool dump name [--path|-p directory name] [--file|-f filename] [--daily|-d] [--weekly|-w] [--yearly|-y] [--verbose|-v] [--help|-h]

DESCRIPTION

Prints the contents of the specified database in \s-1XML\s0 format, with comments for human readability. This format can be read by cfetool import.

The -d, -w, and -y options specify which databases to include in the dump, and may be combined. If they are all omitted, the default is to only dump the weekly database.

OPTIONS

--path|-p directory name

Names the directory in which the database specified by name can be found.

--file|-f filename

Names a file to print the \s-1XML\s0 to. If this option is omitted, the \s-1XML\s0 will be printed to the standard output stream.

--daily|-d

Include the daily pattern database in the dump.

--weekly|-w

Include the weekly pattern database in the dump.

--yearly|-y

Include the yearly pattern database in the dump.

--verbose|-v

Print details of the command's execution to the standard output stream. When using this argument, it is recommended that you also provide the -f argument, to avoid sharing the standard output stream.

--help|-h

Print a short help message and then exit.

  % cfetool dump temperature --path /my/path -f temperature.xml
