View changesets

The DNAChangeset command line tool can be used to view all changesets on a development system, or the contents of a specific changeset.

To view all changesets on a development system

1. On the desktop, double-click the Windows PowerShell for DNA shortcut.

   Windows PowerShell for DNA opens.

2. Execute the following commands:

   set-silo RealTime

   dnachangeset view --type <type>

   Where:

   --type <type> is mandatory for each command and describes a valid changeset type (for example, --type display).

   Note: A combination of changesets can be packaged together in the same package file. Currently, only RealTime database (RTDB) (realtime) and display type changesets are supported by the DNAChangeset tool.

   The dnachangeset view --type display command would result in the following example output:

   Display Changeset:

   1: {Closed}. "Tank Displays Set 1"

   2: {Open}. "Tank Displays Set 2"

   The dnachangeset view --type realtime command would result in the following example output:

   RealTime Changeset:

   1: {Open}. "RealTime Set 1"

   2: {Closed}. "RealTime Set 2"

To view the contents of a specific changeset

3. On the desktop, double-click the Windows PowerShell for DNA shortcut.

   Windows PowerShell for DNA opens.

4. Execute the following commands:

   set-silo RealTime

   dnachangeset view --type <type> --changeset <changeset id>

   Where:

   • --type <type> is mandatory for each command and describes a valid changeset type (for example, --type display).

     Note: A combination of changesets can be packaged together in the same package file. Currently, only realtime and display type changesets are supported by the DNAChangeset tool.

   • --changeset <changeset id> is the identification number of the specific changeset you want to view.

   The dnachangeset view --type display --changeset 2 command would result in the following example output:

   Changeset: "2"

   Type: "Display"

   Title: "Testing"

   Description: "Test description."

   State: "Closed"
