eXist-db Config

This repo contains eXist-db configuration files implementing Production Use - Good Practice. Configuration files are located in a subdirectory per eXist-db version (e.g. ./v5.1.1/). Diffs to the original release files are kept to a minimum.

It also includes a python script that takes care of backing up and overwriting target files.

Prepare

git clone https://github.com/eXistSolutions/existdb-config.git
cd existdb-config

Usage (python - with backup)

./existdb-config.py -s ./v5.1.1/ -t ../exist-distribution-5.1.1/

This will

• create a timestamped backup tar file named existdb-config_${timestamp}.tar in the target folder ../exist-distribution-5.1.1/
• copy over config fragments for a eXist-db 5.1.1

To undo the changes extract the backup tar archive at its location.

cd ../exist-distribution-5.1.1/
tar xf existdb-config_${timestamp}.tar

Usage (manual - NO backup)

cp -a ./v5.1.1/ ../exist-distribution-5.1.1/
