Example 3.25. Usage of bulkpublish


The options have the following meaning:

Parameter Description
-a Equivalent to the combination of -ap and -av.
-ap Approve the place of any content below the base folder that is not place approved yet.
-av Approve the latest checked-in version of each document below the base folder.
-b Publish all resources below the base folder that are approved but not published yet and that are not marked for deletion or withdrawal.
-ub All resources below the base folder that are published will be withdrawn from the Master Live Server.
-c Check-in all content items below the base folder which are checked-out.
-f The path of a folder for which you want to start the operations (such as /articles/sport). If no path is entered, all resources below the root folder will be used. If you use a multi-site enabled system, it is mandatory to enter a path to a folder that belongs to a single base folder (see Section 2.3, “Multi-Site Publishing”). This option can be given multiple times.
