Manually created topology backup
StackState Self-hosted v5.0.x
This page describes StackState version 5.0.
This page describes the process of exporting and importing manual topology data, i.e. components and relations that are not synchronized via StackPacks.
Requirements
- Unix shell
To export all manually created components and relations to a file
manual_topo.stj
using the StackState CLI:CLI: stac
CLI: sts (new)
- 1.Create the export file:stac graph list --manual --ids Component Relation \| xargs \stac graph export --ids \> manual_topo.stj
- 2.Check the generated file
manual_topo.stj
to make sure it contains a correct export of all your topology.
Breakdown of the export command used in the example above:
stac graph list --manual --ids Component Relation
lists all ids of manually created components and relations.| xargs
connects thegraph list
andgraph export
commands.stac graph export --ids
exports all graph nodes by ids.> manual_topo.stj
dumps the results in the filemanual_topo.stj
.
⚠️ PLEASE NOTE - from StackState v5.0, the old
sts
CLI is called stac
.In a future release of StackState, the new
sts
CLI will fully replace the stac
CLI. It is advised to install the new sts
CLI and upgrade any installed instance of the old sts
CLI to stac
. For details see:Command not currently available in the new
sts
CLI. Use the stac
CLI.Manually created relations to synchronized components may fail on import if these synchronized components do not exist anymore.
sts graph import < manual_topo.stj
