collective.exportimport
=======================
Export and import content, members, relations, translations, localroles and much more.
Export and import all kinds of data from and to Plone sites using a intermediate json-format.
The main use-case is migrations since it enables you to for example migrate from Plone 4 with Archetypes and Python 2 to Plone 6 with Dexterity and Python 3 in one step.
Most features use `plone.restapi` to serialize and deserialize data.
See also the training on migrating with ``exportimport``: https://training.plone.org/migrations/exportimport.html

Installation
============
Install collective.exportimport as you would install any other Python package.
You don't need to activate the add-on in the Site Setup Add-ons control panel to be able to use the forms ``@@export_content`` and ``@@import_content`` in your site.
If you need help, see:
- for Plone 4: https://4.docs.plone.org/adapt-and-extend/install_add_ons.html
- for Plone 5: https://5.docs.plone.org/manage/installing/installing_addons.html
- for Plone 6: https://6.docs.plone.org/install/manage-add-ons-packages.html
Python 2 compatibility
----------------------
This package is compatible with Python 3 and Python 2.
Depending on the Python version different versions of it's dependencies will be installed.
If you run into problems, file an issue at: https://github.com/collective/collective.exportimport/issues
Usage
=====
Export
------
Use the form with the URL ``/@@export_content``, and select what you want to export:
.. image:: ./docs/export.png
You can export one or more types and a whole site or only a specific path in a site. Since items are exported ordered by path importing them will create the same structure as you had originally.
The downloaded json-file will have the name of the path you exported from, e.g. ``Plone.json``.
The exports for members, relations, localroles and relations are linked to in this form but can also be called individually: ``/@@export_members``, ``/@@export_relations``, ``/@@export_localroles``, ``/@@export_translations``, ``/@@export_ordering``, ``/@@export_discussion``.
Import
------
Use the form with the URL ``/@@import_content``, and upload a json-file that you want to import:
.. image:: ./docs/import.png
The imports for members, relations, localroles and relations are linked to in this form but can also be called individually: ``/@@import_members``, ``/@@import_relations``, ``/@@import_localroles``, ``/@@import_translations``, ``/@@import_ordering``, ``/@@import_discussion``.
As a last step in a migration there is another view ``@@reset_dates`` that resets the modified date on imported content to the date initially contained in the imported json-file. This is necessary since varous changes during a migration will likely result in a updated modified-date. During import the original is stored as ``obj.modification_date_migrated`` on each new object and this view sets this date.
Export- and import locations
----------------------------
If you select 'Save to file on server', the Export view will save json files in the directory of your Plone instanc in /var/instance.
The import view will look for files under /var/instance/import.
These directories will normally be different, under different Plone instances and possibly on different servers.
You can set the environment variable 'COLLECTIVE_EXPORTIMPORT_CENTRAL_DIRECTORY' to add a 'shared' directory on one server or maybe network share.
With this variable set, collective.exportimport will both save to and load .json files from the same server directory.
This saves time not having to move .json files around from the export- to the import location.
You should be aware that the Export views will overwrite any existing previous .json file export that have the same name.
Use-cases
=========
Migrations
----------
When a in-place-migration is not required you can choose this add-on to migrate the most important parts of your site to json and then import it into a new Plone instance of your targeted version:
* Export content from a Plone site (it supports Plone 4 and 5, Archetypes and Dexterity, Python 2 and 3).
* Import the exported content into a new site (Plone 5.2+, Dexterity, Python 3)
* Export and import relations, users and groups with their roles, translations, local roles, ordering, default-pages, comments, portlets and redirects.
How to migrate additional features like Annotations or Marker Interfaces is discussed in the FAQ section.
Other
-----
You can use this add-on to
* Archive your content as JSON.
* Export data to prepare a migration to another system.
* Combine content from multiple plone-sites into one.
* Import a plone-site as a subsite into another.
* Import content from other systems as long as it fits the required format.
* Update or replace existing data.
Details
=======
Export content
--------------
Exporting content is basically a wrapper for the serializers of plone.restapi:
.. code-block:: python
from plone.restapi.interfaces import ISerializeToJson
from zope.component import getMultiAdapter
serializer = getMultiAdapter((obj, request), ISerializeToJson)
data = serializer(include_items=False)
Import content
--------------
Importing content is a elaborate wrapper for the deserializers of plone.restapi:
.. code-block:: python
from plone.restapi.interfaces import IDeserializeFromJson
from zope.component import getMultiAdapter
container.invokeFactory(item['@type'], item['id'])
deserializer = getMultiAdapter((new, self.request), IDeserializeFromJson)
new = deserializer(validate_all=False, data=item)
Use for migrations
------------------
A main use-case of this package is migration from one Plone-Version to another.
Exporting Archetypes content and importing that as Dexterity content works fine but due to changes in field-names some settings would get lost.
For example the setting to exclude content from the navigation was renamed from ``excludeFromNav`` to ``exclude_from_nav``.
To fix this you can check the checkbox "Modify exported data for migrations".
This will modify the data during export:
* Drop unused data (e.g. `next_item` and `components`)
* Remove all relation fields
* Change some field names that changed between Archetypes and Dexterity
* ``excludeFromNav`` → ``exclude_from_nav``
* ``allowDiscussion`` → ``allow_discussion``
* ``subject`` → ``subjects``
* ``expirationDate`` → ``expires``
* ``effectiveDate`` → ``effective``
* ``creation_date`` → ``created``
* ``modification_date`` → ``modified``
* ``startDate`` → ``start``
* ``endDate`` → ``end``
* ``openEnd`` → ``open_end``
* ``wholeDay`` → ``whole_day``
* ``contactEmail`` → ``contact_email``
* ``contactName`` → ``contact_name``
* ``contactPhone`` → ``contact_phone``
* Update view names on Folders and Collection that changed since Plone 4.
* Export ``ATTopic`` and their criteria to Collections with querystrings.
* Update Collection-criteria.
* Links and images in Richtext-Fields of content and portlets have changes since Plone 4.
the view ``/@@fix_html`` allows you to fix these.
Control creating imported content
---------------------------------
You can choose between four options how to deal with content that already exists:
* Skip: Don't import at all
* Replace: Delete item and create new
* Update: Reuse and only overwrite imported data
* Ignore: Create with a new id
Imported content is initially created with ``invokeFactory`` using portal_type and id of the exported item before deserializing the rest of the data.
You can set additional values by specifying a dict ``factory_kwargs`` that will be passed to the factory.
Like this you can set values on the imported object that are expected to be there by subscribers to IObjectAddedEvent.
Export versioned content
------------------------
Exporting versions of Archetypes content will not work because of a bug in plone.restapi (https://github.com/plone/plone.restapi/issues/1335).
For export to work you need to use a version between 7.7.0 and 8.0.0 (if released) or a source-checkout of the branch 7.x.x.
Notes on speed and large migrations
===================================
Exporting and importing large amounts of content can take a while. Export is pretty fast but import is constrained by some features of Plone, most importantly versioning:
* Importing 5000 Folders takes ~5 minutes
* Importing 5000 Documents takes >25 minutes because of versioning.
* Importing 5000 Documents without versioning takes ~7 minutes.
During import you can commit every x number of items which will free up memory and disk-space in your TMPDIR (where blobs are added before each commit).
When exporting large numbers of blobs (binary files and images) you will get huge json-files and may run out of memory.
You have various options to deal with this.
The best way depends on how you are going to import the blobs:
- Export as download urls: small download, but ``collective.exportimport`` cannot import the blobs, so you will need an own import script to download them.
- Export as base-64 encoded strings: large download, but ``collective.exportimport`` can handle the import.
- Export as blob paths: small download and ``collective.exportimport`` can handle the import, but you need to copy ``var/blobstorage`` to the Plone Site where you do the import or set the environment variable ``COLLECTIVE_EXPORTIMPORT_BLOB_HOME`` to the old blobstorage path: ``export COLLECTIVE_EXPORTIMPORT_BLOB_HOME=/path-to-old-instance/var/blobstorage``.
To export the blob-path you do not need to have access to the blobs!
Format of export and import of content
======================================
By default all content is exported to and imported from one large json-file.
To inspect such very large json-files without performance-issues you can use klogg (https://klogg.filimonov.dev).
Since version 1.10 collective.exportimport also supports exporting and importing each content item as a separate json-file.
To use that select *Save each item as a separate file on the server* in the form or specify ``download_to_server=2`` when calling the export in python.
In the import-form you can manually select a directory on the server or specify ``server_directory="/mydir"`` when calling the import in python.
Customize export and import
===========================
This add-on is designed to be adapted to your requirements and has multiple hooks to make that easy.
To make that easier here are packages you can reuse to override and extend the export and import.
Use these templates and adapt them to your own projects:
* https://github.com/starzel/contentexport
* https://github.com/starzel/contentimport
Many examples for customizing the export and import are collected in the chapter "FAQ, Tips and Tricks" below.
.. note::
As a rule of thumb you should make changes to the data during import unless you need access to the original object for the required changes.
One reason is that this way the serialized content in the json-file more closely represents the original data.
Another reason is that it allows you to fix issues during the process you are currently developing (i.e. without having to redo the export).
Export Example
--------------
.. code-block:: python
from collective.exportimport.export_content import ExportContent
class CustomExportContent(ExportContent):
QUERY = {
'Document': {'review_state': ['published', 'pending']},
}
DROP_PATHS = [
'/Plone/userportal',
'/Plone/en/obsolete_content',
]
DROP_UIDS = [
'71e3e0a6f06942fea36536fbed0f6c42',
]
def update(self):
"""Use this to override stuff before the export starts
(e.g. force a specific language in the request)."""
def start(self):
"""Hook to do something before export."""
def finish(self):
"""Hook to do something after export."""
def global_obj_hook(self, obj):
"""Inspect the content item before serialisation data.
Bad: Changing the content-item is a horrible idea.
Good: Return None if you want to skip this particular object.
"""
return obj
def global_dict_hook(self, item, obj):
"""Use this to modify or skip the serialized data.
Return None if you want to skip this particular object.
"""
return item
def dict_hook_document(self, item, obj):
"""Use this to modify or skip the serialized data by type.
Return the modified dict (item) or None if you want to skip this particular object.
"""
return item
Register it with your own browserlayer to override the default.

Import Example
--------------
.. code-block:: python
from collective.exportimport.import_content import ImportContent
class CustomImportContent(ImportContent):
CONTAINER = {'Event': '/imported-events'}
# These fields will be ignored
DROP_FIELDS = ['relatedItems']
# Items with these uid will be ignored
DROP_UIDS = ['04d1477583c74552a7fcd81a9085c620']

Automate export and import
--------------------------
Run all exports and save all data in ``var/instance/``:
.. code-block:: python
from plone import api
from Products.Five import BrowserView
class ExportAll(BrowserView):
def __call__(self):
export_content = api.content.get_view("export_content", self.context, self.request)
self.request.form["form.submitted"] = True
export_content(
portal_type=["Folder", "Document", "News Item", "File", "Image"], # only export these
include_blobs=2, # Export files and images as blob paths
download_to_server=True)
other_exports = [
"export_relations",
"export_members",
"export_translations",
"export_localroles",
"export_ordering",
"export_defaultpages",
"export_discussion",
"export_portlets",
"export_redirects",
]
for name in other_exports:
view = api.content.get_view(name, portal, request)
# This saves each export in var/instance/export_xxx.json
view(download_to_server=True)
# Important! Redirect to prevent infinite export loop :)
return self.request.response.redirect(self.context.absolute_url())
Run all imports using the data exported in the example above:
.. code-block:: python
from collective.exportimport.fix_html import fix_html_in_content_fields
from collective.exportimport.fix_html import fix_html_in_portlets
from pathlib import Path
from plone import api
from Products.Five import BrowserView
class ImportAll(BrowserView):
def __call__(self):
portal = api.portal.get()
# Import content
view = api.content.get_view("import_content", portal, request)
request.form["form.submitted"] = True
request.form["commit"] = 500
view(server_file="Plone.json", return_json=True)
transaction.commit()
# Run all other imports
other_imports = [
"relations",
"members",
"translations",
"localroles",
"ordering",
"defaultpages",
"discussion",
"portlets",
"redirects",
]
cfg = getConfiguration()
directory = Path(cfg.clienthome) / "import"
for name in other_imports:
view = api.content.get_view(f"import_{name}", portal, request)
path = Path(directory) / f"export_{name}.json"
results = view(jsonfile=path.read_text(), return_json=True)
logger.info(results)
transaction.commit()
# Run cleanup steps
results = fix_html_in_content_fields()
logger.info("Fixed html for %s content items", results)
transaction.commit()
results = fix_html_in_portlets()
logger.info("Fixed html for %s portlets", results)
transaction.commit()
reset_dates = api.content.get_view("reset_dates", portal, request)
reset_dates()
transaction.commit()
.. note::
The views ``@@export_all`` and ``@@import_all`` are also contained in the helper-packages https://github.com/starzel/contentexport and https://github.com/starzel/contentimport
FAQ, Tips and Tricks
====================
This section covers frequent use-cases and examples for features that are not required for all migrations.
Using global_obj_hook during export
-----------------------------------
Using ``global_obj_hook`` during export to inspect content and decide to skip it.
.. code-block:: python
def global_obj_hook(self, obj):
# Drop subtopics
if obj.portal_type == "Topic" and obj.__parent__.portal_type == "Topic":
return
# Drop files and images from PFG formfolders
if obj.__parent__.portal_type == "FormFolder":
return
return obj
Using dict-hooks during export
------------------------------
Use ``global_dict_hook`` during export to inspect content and modify the serialized json.
You can also use ``dict_hook_`` to better structure your code for readability.
Sometimes you need to handle data that you add in ``global_dict_hook`` during export in corresponding code in ``global_object_hook`` during import.
The following example about placeful workflow policy is a perfect example for that pattern:
Export/Import placeful workflow policy
--------------------------------------
Export:
.. code-block:: python
def global_dict_hook(self, item, obj):
if obj.isPrincipiaFolderish and ".wf_policy_config" in obj.keys():
wf_policy = obj[".wf_policy_config"]
item["exportimport.workflow_policy"] = {
"workflow_policy_below": wf_policy.workflow_policy_below,
"workflow_policy_in": wf_policy.workflow_policy_in,
}
return item
Import:
.. code-block:: python
def global_obj_hook(self, obj, item):
wf_policy = item.get("exportimport.workflow_policy")
if wf_policy:
obj.manage_addProduct["CMFPlacefulWorkflow"].manage_addWorkflowPolicyConfig()
wf_policy_config = obj[".wf_policy_config"]
wf_policy_config.setPolicyIn(wf_policy["workflow_policy_in"], update_security=True)
wf_policy_config.setPolicyBelow(wf_policy["workflow_policy_below"], update_security=True)
Using dict-hooks during import
------------------------------
A lot of fixes can be done during import using the ``global_dict_hook`` or ``dict_hook_``.
Here we prevent the expire-date to be before the effective date since that would lead to validation-errors during deserializing:
.. code-block:: python
def global_dict_hook(self, item):
effective = item.get('effective', None)
expires = item.get('expires', None)
if effective and expires and expires <= effective:
item.pop('expires')
return item
Here we drop empty lines from the creators:
.. code-block:: python
def global_dict_hook(self, item):
item["creators"] = [i for i in item.get("creators", []) if i]
return item
This example migrates a ``PloneHelpCenter`` to a simple folder/document structure during import.
There are a couple more types to handle (as folder or document) but you get the idea, don't you?
.. code-block:: python
def dict_hook_helpcenter(self, item):
item["@type"] = "Folder"
item["layout"] = "listing_view"
return item
def dict_hook_helpcenterglossary(self, item):
item["@type"] = "Folder"
item["layout"] = "listing_view"
return item
def dict_hook_helpcenterinstructionalvideo(self, item):
item["@type"] = "File"
if item.get("video_file"):
item["file"] = item["video_file"]
return item
def dict_hook_helpcenterlink(self, item):
item["@type"] = "Link"
item["remoteUrl"] = item.get("url", None)
return item
def dict_hook_helpcenterreferencemanualpage(self, item):
item["@type"] = "Document"
return item
If you change types during import you need to take care of other cases where types are referenced.\
Examples are collection-queries (see "Fixing invalid collection queries" below) or constrains (see here):
.. code-block:: python
PORTAL_TYPE_MAPPING = {
"Topic": "Collection",
"FormFolder": "EasyForm",
"HelpCenter": "Folder",
}
def global_dict_hook(self, item):
if item.get("exportimport.constrains"):
types_fixed = []
for portal_type in item["exportimport.constrains"]["locally_allowed_types"]:
if portal_type in PORTAL_TYPE_MAPPING:
types_fixed.append(PORTAL_TYPE_MAPPING[portal_type])
elif portal_type in ALLOWED_TYPES:
types_fixed.append(portal_type)
item["exportimport.constrains"]["locally_allowed_types"] = list(set(types_fixed))
types_fixed = []
for portal_type in item["exportimport.constrains"]["immediately_addable_types"]:
if portal_type in PORTAL_TYPE_MAPPING:
types_fixed.append(PORTAL_TYPE_MAPPING[portal_type])
elif portal_type in ALLOWED_TYPES:
types_fixed.append(portal_type)
item["exportimport.constrains"]["immediately_addable_types"] = list(set(types_fixed))
return item
Change workflow
---------------
.. code-block:: python
REVIEW_STATE_MAPPING = {
"internal": "published",
"internally_published": "published",
"obsolete": "private",
"hidden": "private",
}
def global_dict_hook(self, item):
if item.get("review_state") in REVIEW_STATE_MAPPING:
item["review_state"] = REVIEW_STATE_MAPPING[item["review_state"]]
return item
Export/Import Annotations
-------------------------
Some core-features of Plone (e.g. comments) use annotations to store data.
The core features are already covered but your custom code or community add-ons may use annotations as well.
Here is how you can migrate them.
**Export**: Only export those Annotations that your really need.
.. code-block:: python
from zope.annotation.interfaces import IAnnotations
ANNOTATIONS_TO_EXPORT = [
"syndication_settings",
]
ANNOTATIONS_KEY = 'exportimport.annotations'
class CustomExportContent(ExportContent):
def global_dict_hook(self, item, obj):
item = self.export_annotations(item, obj)
return item
def export_annotations(self, item, obj):
results = {}
annotations = IAnnotations(obj)
for key in ANNOTATIONS_TO_EXPORT:
data = annotations.get(key)
if data:
results[key] = IJsonCompatible(data, None)
if results:
item[ANNOTATIONS_KEY] = results
return item
**Import**:
.. code-block:: python
from zope.annotation.interfaces import IAnnotations
ANNOTATIONS_KEY = "exportimport.annotations"
class CustomImportContent(ImportContent):
def global_obj_hook(self, obj, item):
item = self.import_annotations(obj, item)
return item
def import_annotations(self, obj, item):
annotations = IAnnotations(obj)
for key in item.get(ANNOTATIONS_KEY, []):
annotations[key] = item[ANNOTATIONS_KEY][key]
return item
Some features also store data in annotations on the portal, e.g. `plone.contentrules.localassignments`, `plone.portlets.categoryblackliststatus`, `plone.portlets.contextassignments`, `syndication_settings`.
Depending on your requirements you may want to export and import those as well.
Export/Import Marker Interfaces
-------------------------------
**Export**: You may only want to export the marker-interfaces you need.
It is a good idea to inspect a list of all used marker interfaces in a portal before deciding what to migrate.
.. code-block:: python
from zope.interface import directlyProvidedBy
MARKER_INTERFACES_TO_EXPORT = [
"collective.easyslider.interfaces.ISliderPage",
"plone.app.layout.navigation.interfaces.INavigationRoot",
]
MARKER_INTERFACES_KEY = "exportimport.marker_interfaces"
class CustomExportContent(ExportContent):
def global_dict_hook(self, item, obj):
item = self.export_marker_interfaces(item, obj)
return item
def export_marker_interfaces(self, item, obj):
interfaces = [i.__identifier__ for i in directlyProvidedBy(obj)]
interfaces = [i for i in interfaces if i in MARKER_INTERFACES_TO_EXPORT]
if interfaces:
item[MARKER_INTERFACES_KEY] = interfaces
return item
**Import**:
.. code-block:: python
from plone.dexterity.utils import resolveDottedName
from zope.interface import alsoProvides
MARKER_INTERFACES_KEY = "exportimport.marker_interfaces"
class CustomImportContent(ImportContent):
def global_obj_hook_before_deserializing(self, obj, item):
"""Apply marker interfaces before deserializing."""
for iface_name in item.pop(MARKER_INTERFACES_KEY, []):
try:
iface = resolveDottedName(iface_name)
if not iface.providedBy(obj):
alsoProvides(obj, iface)
logger.info("Applied marker interface %s to %s", iface_name, obj.absolute_url())
except ModuleNotFoundError:
pass
return obj, item
Skip versioning during import
-----------------------------
The event-handlers of versioning can seriously slow down your imports.
It is a good idea to skip it before the import:
.. code-block:: python
VERSIONED_TYPES = [
"Document",
"News Item",
"Event",
"Link",
]
def start(self):
self.items_without_parent = []
portal_types = api.portal.get_tool("portal_types")
for portal_type in VERSIONED_TYPES:
fti = portal_types.get(portal_type)
behaviors = list(fti.behaviors)
if 'plone.versioning' in behaviors:
logger.info(f"Disable versioning for {portal_type}")
behaviors.remove('plone.versioning')
fti.behaviors = behaviors
Re-enable versioning and create initial versions after all imports and fixes are done, e.g in the view ``@@import_all``.
.. code-block:: python
from Products.CMFEditions.interfaces.IModifier import FileTooLargeToVersionError
VERSIONED_TYPES = [
"Document",
"News Item",
"Event",

Dealing with validation errors
------------------------------
Sometimes you get validation-errors during import because the data cannot be validated.
That can happen when options in a field are generated from content in the site.
In these cases you cannot be sure that all options already exist in the portal while importing the content.
It may also happen, when you have validators that rely on content or configuration that does not exist on import.
.. note::
For relation fields this is not necessary since relations are imported after content anyway!
There are two ways to handle these issues:
* Use a simple setter bypassing the validation used by the restapi
* Defer the import until all other imports were run
Use a simple setter
*******************
You need to specify which content-types and fields you want to handle that way.
It is put in a key, that the normal import will ignore and set using ``setattr()`` before deserializing the rest of the data.
.. code-block:: python
SIMPLE_SETTER_FIELDS = {
"ALL": ["some_shared_field"],
"CollaborationFolder": ["allowedPartnerDocTypes"],
"DocType": ["automaticTransferTargets"],
"DPDocument": ["scenarios"],
"DPEvent" : ["Status"],
}
class CustomImportContent(ImportContent):
def global_dict_hook(self, item):
simple = {}
for fieldname in SIMPLE_SETTER_FIELDS.get("ALL", []):
if fieldname in item:
value = item.pop(fieldname)
if value:
simple[fieldname] = value
for fieldname in SIMPLE_SETTER_FIELDS.get(item["@type"], []):
if fieldname in item:
value = item.pop(fieldname)
if value:
simple[fieldname] = value
if simple:
item["exportimport.simplesetter"] = simple
def global_obj_hook_before_deserializing(self, obj, item):
"""Hook to modify the created obj before deserializing the data.
"""
# import simplesetter data before the rest
for fieldname, value in item.get("exportimport.simplesetter", {}).items():
setattr(obj, fieldname, value)
.. note::
Using ``global_obj_hook_before_deserializing`` makes sure that data is there when the event-handlers are run after import.
Defer import
************
You can also wait until all content is imported before setting the values on these fields.
Again you need to find out which fields for which types you want to handle that way.
Here the data is stored in an annotation on the imported object from which it is later read.
This example also supports setting some data with ``setattr`` without validating it:
.. code-block:: python
from plone.restapi.interfaces import IDeserializeFromJson
from zope.annotation.interfaces import IAnnotations
from zope.component import getMultiAdapter
DEFERRED_KEY = "exportimport.deferred"
DEFERRED_FIELD_MAPPING = {
"talk": ["somefield"],
"speaker": [
"custom_field",
"another_field",
]
}
SIMPLE_SETTER_FIELDS = {"custom_type": ["another_field"]}
class CustomImportContent(ImportContent):
def global_dict_hook(self, item):
# Move deferred values to a different key to not deserialize.
# This could also be done during export.
item[DEFERRED_KEY] = {}
for fieldname in DEFERRED_FIELD_MAPPING.get(item["@type"], []):
if item.get(fieldname):
item[DEFERRED_KEY][fieldname] = item.pop(fieldname)
return item
def global_obj_hook(self, obj, item):
# Store deferred data in an annotation.
deferred = item.get(DEFERRED_KEY, {})
if deferred:
annotations = IAnnotations(obj)
annotations[DEFERRED_KEY] = {}
for key, value in deferred.items():
annotations[DEFERRED_KEY][key] = value
You then need a new step in the migration to move the deferred values from the annotation to the field:
.. code-block:: python
class ImportDeferred(BrowserView):
def __call__(self):
# This example reuses the form export_other.pt from collective.exportimport
self.title = "Import deferred data"
if not self.request.form.get("form.submitted", False):
return self.index()
portal = api.portal.get()
self.results = []
for brain in api.content.find(DEFERRED_FIELD_MAPPING.keys()):
obj = brain.getObject()
self.import_deferred(obj)
api.portal.show_message(f"Imported deferred data for {len(self.results)} items!", self.request)
def import_deferred(self, obj):
annotations = IAnnotations(obj, {})
deferred = annotations.get(DEFERRED_KEY, None)
if not deferred:
return
# Shortcut for simple fields (e.g. storing strings, uuids etc.)
for fieldname in SIMPLE_SETTER_FIELDS.get(obj.portal_type, []):
value = deferred.pop(fieldname, None)
if value:
setattr(obj, fieldname, value)
if not deferred:
return
# This approach validates the values and converts more complex data
deserializer = getMultiAdapter((obj, self.request), IDeserializeFromJson)
try:
obj = deserializer(validate_all=False, data=deferred)
except Exception as e:
logger.info("Error while importing deferred data for %s", obj.absolute_url(), exc_info=True)
logger.info("Data: %s", deferred)
else:
self.results.append(obj.absolute_url())
# cleanup
del annotations[DEFERRED_KEY]
This additional view obviously needs to be registered:
.. code-block:: text
Handle LinguaPlone content
--------------------------
Export:
.. code-block:: python
def global_dict_hook(self, item, obj):
# Find language of the nearest parent with a language
# Usefull for LinguaPlone sites where some content is languageindependent
parent = obj.__parent__
for ancestor in parent.aq_chain:
if IPloneSiteRoot.providedBy(ancestor):
# keep language for root content
nearest_ancestor_lang = item["language"]
break
if getattr(ancestor, "getLanguage", None) and ancestor.getLanguage():
nearest_ancestor_lang = ancestor.getLanguage()
item["parent"]["language"] = nearest_ancestor_lang
break
# This forces "wrong" languages to the nearest parents language
if "language" in item and item["language"] != nearest_ancestor_lang:
logger.info(u"Forcing %s (was %s) for %s %s ", nearest_ancestor_lang, item["language"], item["@type"], item["@id"])
item["language"] = nearest_ancestor_lang
# set missing language
if not item.get("language"):
item["language"] = nearest_ancestor_lang
# add info on translations to help find the right container
# usually this idone by export_translations
# but when migrating from LP to pam you sometimes want to check the
# tranlation info during import
if getattr(obj.aq_base, "getTranslations", None) is not None:
translations = obj.getTranslations()
if translations:
item["translation"] = {}
for lang in translations:
uuid = IUUID(translations[lang][0], None)
if uuid == item["UID"]:
continue
translation = translations[lang][0]
if not lang:
lang = "no_language"
item["translation"][lang] = translation.absolute_url()
Import:
.. code-block:: python
def global_dict_hook(self, item):
# Adapt this to your site
languages = ["en", "fr", "de"]
default_language = "en"
portal_id = "Plone"
# No language => lang of parent or default
if item.get("language") not in languages:
if item["parent"].get("language"):
item["language"] = item["parent"]["language"]
else:
item["language"] = default_language
lang = item["language"]
if item["parent"].get("language") != item["language"]:
logger.debug(f"Inconsistent lang: item is {lang}, parent is {item['parent'].get('language')} for {item['@id']}")
# Move item to the correct language-root-folder
# This is only relevant for items in the site-root.
# Most items containers are usually looked up by the uuid of the old parent
url = item["@id"]
parent_url = item["parent"]["@id"]
url = url.replace(f"/{portal_id}/", f"/{portal_id}/{lang}/", 1)
parent_url = parent_url.replace(f"/{portal_id}", f"/{portal_id}/{lang}", 1)
item["@id"] = url
item["parent"]["@id"] = parent_url
return item
Alternative ways to handle items without parent
-----------------------------------------------
Often it is better to export and log items for which no container could be found instead of re-creating the original structure.
.. code-block:: python
def update(self):
self.items_without_parent = []
def create_container(self, item):
# Override create_container to never create parents
self.items_without_parent.append(item)
def finish(self):
# export content without parents
if self.items_without_parent:
data = json.dumps(self.items_without_parent, sort_keys=True, indent=4)
number = len(self.items_without_parent)
cfg = getConfiguration()
filename = 'content_without_parent.json'
filepath = os.path.join(cfg.clienthome, filename)
with open(filepath, 'w') as f:
f.write(data)
msg = u"Saved {} items without parent to {}".format(number, filepath)
logger.info(msg)
api.portal.show_message(msg, self.request)
Export/Import Zope Users
------------------------
By default only users and groups stores in Plone are exported/imported.
You can export/import Zope user like this.
**Export**
.. code-block:: python
from collective.exportimport.export_other import BaseExport

return counter
Export/Import properties, registry-settings and installed add-ons
-----------------------------------------------------------------
When you migrate multiple similar sites that are configured manually it can be useful to export and import configuration that was set by hand.
Export/Import installed settings and add-ons
********************************************
This custom export exports and imports some selected settings and add-ons from a Plone 4.3 site.

Export/Import registry settings
*******************************
The pull-request https://github.com/collective/collective.exportimport/pull/130 has views ``@@export_registry`` and ``@@import_registry``.
These views export and import registry records that do not use the default-setting specified in the schema for that registry record.
The export alone could also be usefull to figure out which settings were modified for a site.
That code will probably not be merged but you can use it in your own projects.
Migrate PloneFormGen to Easyform
--------------------------------
To be able to export PFG as easyform you should use the branch ``migration_features_1.x`` of ``collective.easyform`` in your old site.
Easyform does not need to be installed, we only need the methods ``fields_model`` and ``actions_model``.

Migrate to Volto
----------------
You can reuse the migration-code provided by ``@@migrate_to_volto`` in ``plone.volto`` in a migration.
The following example (used for migrating https://plone.org to Volto) can be used to migrate a site from any older version to Plone 6 with Volto.
You need to have the Blocks Conversion Tool (https://github.com/plone/blocks-conversion-tool) running that takes care of migrating richtext-values to Volto-blocks.
See https://6.docs.plone.org/backend/upgrading/version-specific-migration/migrate-to-volto.html for more details on the changes the migration to Volto does.

Migrate very old Plone Versions with data created by collective.jsonify
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Versions older than Plone 4 do not support ``plone.restapi`` which is required to serialize the content used by ``collective.exportimport``.
To migrate Plone 1, 2 and 3 to Plone 6 you can use ``collective.jsonify`` for the export and ``collective.exportimport`` for the import.
Export with collective.jsonify
******************************
Use https://github.com/collective/collective.jsonify to export content.
You include the methods of ``collective.jsonify`` using `External Methods`.
See https://github.com/collective/collective.jsonify/blob/master/docs/install.rst for more info.
To work better with ``collective.exportimport`` you could extend the exported data using the feature ``additional_wrappers``.
Add info on the parent of an item to make it easier for ``collective.exportimport`` to import the data.
Here is a full example for ``json_methods.py`` which should be in ``BUILDOUT_ROOT/parts/instance/Extensions/``
.. code-block:: python
def extend_item(obj, item):
"""Extend to work better well with collective.exportimport"""
from Acquisition import aq_parent
parent = aq_parent(obj)
item["parent"] = {
"@id": parent.absolute_url(),
"@type": getattr(parent, "portal_type", None),
}
if getattr(parent.aq_base, "UID", None) is not None:
item["parent"]["UID"] = parent.UID()
return item
Here is a full example for ``json_methods.py`` which should be in ``/parts/instance/Extensions/``
.. code-block:: python
from collective.jsonify.export import export_content as export_content_orig
from collective.jsonify.export import get_item
EXPORTED_TYPES = [
"Folder",
"Document",
"News Item",
"Event",
"Link",
"Topic",
"File",
"Image",
"RichTopic",
]
EXTRA_SKIP_PATHS = [
"/Plone/archiv/",
"/Plone/do-not-import/",
]
# Path from which to continue the export.
# The export walks the whole site respecting the order.
# It will ignore everything untill this path is reached.
PREVIOUS = ""
def export_content(self):
return export_content_orig(
self,
basedir="/var/lib/zope/json",
skip_callback=skip_item,
extra_skip_classname=[],
extra_skip_id=[],
extra_skip_paths=EXTRA_SKIP_PATHS,
batch_start=0,
batch_size=10000,
batch_previous_path=PREVIOUS or None,
)
def skip_item(item):
"""Return True if the item should be skipped"""
portal_type = getattr(item, "portal_type", None)
if portal_type not in EXPORTED_TYPES:
return True
def extend_item(obj, item):
"""Extend to work better well with collective.exportimport"""
from Acquisition import aq_parent
parent = aq_parent(obj)
item["parent"] = {
"@id": parent.absolute_url(),
"@type": getattr(parent, "portal_type", None),
}
if getattr(parent.aq_base, "UID", None) is not None:
item["parent"]["UID"] = parent.UID()
return item
To use these create three "External Method" in the ZMI root at the Zope root to use that:
* id: "export_content", module name: "json_methods", function name: "export_content"
* id: "get_item", module name: "json_methods", function name: "get_item"
* id: "extend_item", module name: "json_methods", function name: "extend_item"
Then you can pass the extender to the export using a query-string: http://localhost:8080/Plone/export_content?additional_wrappers=extend_item
Import with collective.jsonify
******************************
Two issues need to be dealt with to allow ``collective.exportimport`` to import the data generated by ``collective.jsonify``.
#. The data is in directories instead of in one large json-file.
#. The json is not in the expected format.
Starting with version 1.8 you can pass an iterator to the import.
You need to create a directory-walker that sorts the json-files the right way.
By default it would import them in the order `1.json`, `10.json`, `100.json`, `101.json` and so on.
.. code-block:: python
from pathlib import Path
def filesystem_walker(path=None):
root = Path(path)
assert(root.is_dir())
folders = sorted([i for i in root.iterdir() if i.is_dir() and i.name.isdecimal()], key=lambda i: int(i.name))
for folder in folders:
json_files = sorted([i for i in folder.glob("*.json") if i.stem.isdecimal()], key=lambda i: int(i.stem))
for json_file in json_files:
logger.debug("Importing %s", json_file)
item = json.loads(json_file.read_text())
item["json_file"] = str(json_file)
item = prepare_data(item)
if item:
yield item
The walker takes the path to be the root with one or more directories holding the json-files.
The sorting of the files is done using the number in the filename.
The method ``prepare_data`` modifies the data before passing it to the import.
A very similar task is done by ``collective.exportimport`` during export.
.. code-block:: python
def prepare_data(item):
"""modify jsonify data to work with c.exportimport"""
# Drop relationfields or defer the import
item.pop("relatedItems", None)
mapping = {
# jsonify => exportimport
"_uid": "UID",
"_type": "@type",
"_path": "@id",
"_layout": "layout",
# AT fieldnames => DX fieldnames
"excludeFromNav": "exclude_from_nav",
"allowDiscussion": "allow_discussion",
"subject": "subjects",
"expirationDate": "expires",
"effectiveDate": "effective",
"creation_date": "created",
"modification_date": "modified",
"startDate": "start",
"endDate": "end",
"openEnd": "open_end",
"eventUrl": "event_url",
"wholeDay": "whole_day",
"contactEmail": "contact_email",
"contactName": "contact_name",
"contactPhone": "contact_phone",
"imageCaption": "image_caption",
}
for old, new in mapping.items():
item = migrate_field(item, old, new)
if item.get("constrainTypesMode", None) == 1:
item = migrate_field(item, "constrainTypesMode", "constrain_types_mode")
else:
item.pop("locallyAllowedTypes", None)
item.pop("immediatelyAddableTypes", None)
item.pop("constrainTypesMode", None)
if "id" not in item:
item["id"] = item["_id"]
return item
def migrate_field(item, old, new):
if item.get(old, _marker) is not _marker:
item[new] = item.pop(old)
return item
You can pass the generator ``filesystem_walker`` to the import:
.. code-block:: python
class ImportAll(BrowserView):
def __call__(self):
# ...
cfg = getConfiguration()
directory = Path(cfg.clienthome) / "import"
# import content
view = api.content.get_view("import_content", portal, request)
request.form["form.submitted"] = True
request.form["commit"] = 1000
view(iterator=filesystem_walker(directory / "mydata"))
# import default-pages
import_deferred = api.content.get_view("import_deferred", portal, request)
import_deferred()
class ImportDeferred(BrowserView):
def __call__(self):
self.title = "Import Deferred Settings (default pages)"
if not self.request.form.get("form.submitted", False):
return self.index()
for brain in api.content.find(portal_type="Folder"):
obj = brain.getObject()
annotations = IAnnotations(obj)
if DEFERRED_KEY not in annotations:
continue
default = annotations[DEFERRED_KEY].pop("_defaultpage", None)
if default and default in obj:
logger.info("Setting %s as default page for %s", default, obj.absolute_url())
obj.setDefaultPage(default)
if not annotations[DEFERRED_KEY]:
annotations.pop(DEFERRED_KEY)
api.portal.show_message("Done", self.request)
return self.index()
``collective.jsonify`` puts the info on relations, translations and default-pages in the export-file.
You can use the approach to defer imports to deal with that data after all items were imported.
The example ``ImportDeferred`` above uses that approach to set the default pages.
This ``global_obj_hook`` below stores that data in a annotation:
.. code-block:: python
def global_obj_hook(self, obj, item):
# Store deferred data in an annotation.
keys = ["_defaultpage"]
data = {}
for key in keys:
if value := item.get(key, None):
data[key] = value
if data:
annotations = IAnnotations(obj)
annotations[DEFERRED_KEY] = data
