Using Exporters¶

...version française de cette page

Exporters allow, as their name indicates, to export items.

Like actions, Exporters implemented in plugins can be used in two ways:

• The interactive mode: selected items in the view are exported.
• The step mode a step uses an exporter to export all items in a result.

Interactive mode¶

To use the interactive mode, start by selecting items in a view.

Then click on the button !{height:24px}!upload.png! in the toolbar of the view (you will have to select export file path).

Step mode¶

To use the step mode, you must add the desired “exporter step” ( using the Step Manager) after the step that produced the results containing the items you want to export.

Thus, in the Step Manager right_click on the step, choose the sub-menu for the appropriate plugin, and in exporter category choose the wanted exporter format.

Example: exporters of Base Plugin:

Then a result configuration window appears to select the items you want to export.

Exporters available in Base Plugin¶

Localization options¶

The icon !{width:24px}preferences- system.png! in main toolbar, provides access to general options. To date there are only one option available: the choice of the decimal separator (for import / export in text format):

• En_US: point as decimal separator
• Fr_FR: comma as decimal separator
