NAME
ipaexport - Export textual data from an IPA data store
SYNOPSIS
ipaexport --catalog CATALOG_NAME
[--db=DB_URI] [--time=TIME] [--delimiter=DELIM] OUTPUT_FILE
DESCRIPTION
ipaexport exports IPA datasets to text files.
OPTIONS
- --catalog=CATALOG_NAME
-
Specifies the name of the IPA catalog to export.
- --time=TIME
-
This argument allows you to export a dataset that was active at TIME. The expected format of this option is YYYY/MM/DD[:HH[:MM[:SS]]]. If this option is specified, a dataset will only be returned if TIME falls between the start and end time for the dataset. If this option is not specified, the "no time" dataset for that catalog will be returned, if present.
- --db=DB_URI
-
A URI specifying the IPA data store to connect to. Due to the possible exposure of database credentials via process listings, the use of this option is discouraged. See ENVIRONMENT below for the recommended way of specifying the IPA data store URI.
- --delimiter=DELIM
-
Specifies the character used as a field delimiter in the output file. By default, ipaimport uses whitespace as the field delimiter.
EXAMPLES
To export the "countrycodes" prefix map:
$ ipaexport --catalog countrycodes --time 2007/04/03 countrycodes.txt
To export the "flowcount" Bag with pipe-delimited fields:
$ ipaexport --catalog flowcount --delimiter \| flowcount.txt
To export the "badhosts" IP set from April 3, 2007:
$ ipaexport --catalog badhosts --time 2007/04/03 badhosts.20070403.txt
ENVIRONMENT
- IPA_DB_URI
-
A URI specifying the location of (and credentials for) the IPA data store. The format of this URI is driver://user:password@hostname/database, e.g.:
postgresql://ipauser:secret@database-server.domain.com/ipa
NOTES
Currently, only the PostgreSQL database driver is supported.
