Use the Changeset Command Line Interface (CLI) tool

The changeset Command Line Interface (CLI) tool can be used to:

• manage changesets of different types

  Note: Currently, only RealTime database (RTDB) (realtime) and display changesets are supported by the dnachangeset tool.

• assign changesets to users

• add metadata or changes to existing changesets

• unlock a Management of Change (MoC) lock on a record in an open RTDB changeset

• view changesets

• view a specific changeset summary

• cancel an open changeset

• close an open changeset

You can issue general commands for the changeset CLI tool by using the following command:

dnachangeset <supported command> <switches>

The supported commands are:

• dnachangeset help — to display general help

• dnachangeset create — to create a changeset for future use

• dnachangeset assign — to assign a changeset to a user

• dnachangeset metadata — to add a field with text to a changeset

• dnachangeset add — to add an entry into a display type changeset

• dnachangeset unlock — to unlock an MoC lock on a record in an open RTDB changeset

• dnachangeset view — to view changesets

• dnachangeset summarize — to view a specific changeset summary

• dnachangeset cancel — to cancel an open changeset

• dnachangeset close — to close an open changeset

  Note: While executing dnachangeset commands, ensure the quotations for parameter values ("<parameter value>") are used correctly, or the parameter value could be truncated. Without quotations around the parameter value, anything after the first encountered space will be ignored.
