If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Informations about the package knowledge-porter

knowledge-porter

A command line porter for Vanilla Knowledge.

Example:

Where ./customer1.zendesk.json is relative path to your configuration file.

Configuration file contains set of feature flags for porter to configure source and destination (data & api). Example:

Alternatively, you can set the porter configuration into an environmental variable and tell the porter to use the variable instead of the configuration file.

Example, assuming your configuration is set on the variable CONFIG:

Note: The environmental variable must contain a valid JSON configuration in the same way that a file configuration should be.

Rate Limit Bypass for Vanilla's Infrastructure

If the destination is type vanilla, you might want to use the rate_limit_bypass_token (optional) configuration parameter to set your rate limit bypass token.

Users and Authors

When porter import articles it is searching for existing user by email and uses it if found.

If user is not found by email porter checks configuration feature flag syncUserByEmailOnly and if that flag is false (dafault) search user by name.

If user still can not be found porter will create new user.

Import from multiple domains

In case we need to import data from different domains and they all could be reached using same api credentials/token there is another tool mulit-import.sh.

This script get one argument which is folder name with special configuration file. For example gink.

That folder should have 2 files inside: template.json and domains. Screen Shot 2020-03-25 at 5 22 12 PM

template.json is regular config json file for this porter. but with 2 special values prefix and source-domain :

and domains file has very flat structure domain.com=prefix like:

This bash script will:

Example:

This multi-import script starts many php processes in background (one process per domain).

We can check progress using various log files created by this tool in targeted {folder}/log.

There is one special log file {folder}/log/import.log.

It has PIDs of running php processes in case developer need to stop them or investigate any incident.
