Description

The engine-export command is located in the bin subdirectory of a Watson Explorer Engine installation (on Microsoft operating systems this command has the .exe file extension).

Use engine-export to export all user created configuration nodes (for example, vse-collection configurations) to an archive on disk. This archive will always have a "engine-export." prefix, and can be opened or inspected manually using any command or application that understands the tar archive format. Its contents can be imported into another Watson Explorer Engine installation using the engine-import command.

-list List all exportable nodes in this Watson Explorer Engine installation. No export archive will be created if this flag is set.
-out directory Specify the directory to write the generated export archive to. This directory must exist, and the user invoking engine-export needs permission to create new files in it. If this flag is not set the default is ".", the directory from which engine-export was invoked/
