timesheet-load8

Load onshore timesheet data from disk into database

Usage

 B<timesheet-load> [ -d I<directory> ] [ -v ]

Overview

timesheet-load extracts data from the onShore TimeSheet database instance and dumps it onto disk. This is primarily useful for backing up data. The program can be run on a nightly basis.

The data is dumped onto disk using one file per table.

Options

-d directory

Specify the directory where the dumped tables may be found. By default, the "BACKUPDIR" setting from the global configuration file is used.

Configuration files

timesheet-load reads options from '../etc/timesheet.conf'. Options read include the PostgreSQL connect string, table names, default backup directory, etc.

Bugs

Should also have options to delete * from table or drop the tables.
