Import / Export Plugin

The Import/Export plugin allows objects to be exported as JSON files. This allows for sharing of objects between users who are not using a shared persistence store. It also allows object trees to be backed up. Additionally, object trees exported using this tool can then be exposed as read-only static root trees using the Static Root Plugin.

Upon installation it will add two new context menu actions to allow import and export of objects. Initiating the Export action on an object will produce a JSON file that includes the object and all of its composed children. Selecting Import on an object will allow the user to import a previously exported object tree as a child of the selected object.

Installation

openmct.install(openmct.plugins.ImportExport())
