I'm using git as a version control system and I very often unpack the content of an MII project onto my git repository to check if anything has been changed by other people... I need to do the following steps:
MII Menu -> login + password -> System Management -> Projects -> select a [project] -> click on Export -> Save As -> Save
My question is: is there any other way to get the [project] in .zip format? With a script? Or with a web service command? Just to avoid the steps above...
Request clarification before answering.
Hi Tibor,
Hope you are doing well.
There is a service documented here:
The tool I wrote (http://xmii.guru/) also has an option to expose the archives via FTP.
Regards,
Christian

I think passing the user and pass using the parameters j_username and j_password or IllumLoginName and IllumLoginPassword in the URL will work. There may be network or server configurations that could help with the speed but other than that I have no suggestions. There aren't any other parameters for the service that I am aware of that would speed things up. FYI when you make the request MII will gather up and zip the project files in real time each time so some of the delay may be waiting for that to finish and not just pushing the bits over the wire.

Christian

Well XMII/Workbench.jsp will give you back the jnlp so I think you can trigger it with the javaws command if you don't want to use your browser. I know you can also run it from the java control panel if you have already downloaded all of the libs. I am sure you can also just run it directly if you have all of the libs downloaded, it will just ask you for the server url and your login info when it starts up. Don't have all the details because its not typically necessary to run it other than the typical way.

Both j_username, j_password and IllumLoginName, IllumLoginPassword worked for me 🙂
My last question. Is it also possible to launch the workbench with a single URL?
Thx

Hi Christian
this is great 🙂 I just regret the amount of time that I wasted with the complicated process mentioned above... :S
I tried it and works! I have some remarks however:
- for one MII server (15.1 SP3 Patch 😎 the download is critically slow (3KB/s) and in all of them (15.1 SP5 Patch 4 or 15.1 SP1 Patch 0) was slower comparing with clicking on Export button. Can I somehow have the same speed as for manual download?
- is it possible to pass username/password into that link?
Thanks
